Virginia (among others) imposes a silly one-gun-a-month limit on gun sales. This limit is supposed to reduce the number of guns that get into the black market and into criminal hands. It doesn't.
Here's a newsflash for advocates of this law: For decades, it has already been against federal law for anyone to transfer a firearm to irresponsible persons such as felons and the insane. Therefore, there is no need to restrict the gun-buying habits of law-abiding people!
Here's something else that anti-gun activists and the ignorant masses don't comprehend: The current one-gun-a-month restriction only affects legal firearm sales. Criminals (who, by definition, disobey the law) effectively have no purchase limits -- they can buy as many guns as they can afford. If they want more, they simply steal 'em!
No new legislation will ever stop criminals from being criminals -- only strict enforcement of the law including imprisonment and/or execution can do that.
Stop passing ever more laws that only infringe the rights of law-abiding people! Repeal them instead!
