    How old are the members of Metallica? (Must confess, I never really liked them) Rock and roll, nobody does that any more. Might as well be Rudy Vallee


    Beyond that, I've ridden Harleys all my life, and now I'm told that I'm supposed to enjoy some fucking little electric thing made in India? No thank you. (The only current music I listen to is blues and mountain music, neither of which would make it at the Super Bowl)

    I was pondering that very thing today, and there simply isn't anybody left. If it's not some dumbass rapper, it would be some sort of country singer, or maybe somebody like Taylor Swift

    well, we're safe from storch!

    Over nearly four hours, the Democratic-led Senate Courts of Justice Committee approved more than half a dozen bills tightening rules on assault-style firearms, gun storage, concealed carry reciprocity, ghost guns and weapons in public spaces, while rejecting the lone Republican proposal that would have increased mandatory minimum sentences for repeat firearm offenses.

    All of the votes fell along party lines.

    Within days of Democratic Gov. Abigail Spanberger being sworn in, members of her party introduced a flurry of amendments looking to end mandatory minimum sentences for various crimes within the state.

    According to Jason Miyares, the former Republican attorney general, House Bill 863 includes proposals to effectively eliminate minimum sentencing for manslaughter, rape, possession and distribution of child pornography, assaulting a law enforcement officer and other repeat violent felonies.

    Additionally, Democrats are also looking to remove the mandatory five-day minimum sentence for certain first-time DUI offenders.

    Despite campaigning on making life more affordable for Virginians, Democratic lawmakers in Richmond introduced more than 50 new taxes and tax increases this month during the General Assembly session.

    Taxes on concerts, counseling, electric leaf blowers, Amazon deliveries, Door Dash, Uber Eats, and guns and ammunition are among a flood of proposals the Democratic majority in the Virginia General Assembly introduced.

    “There's a [proposed] tax on ride share,” said Minock. “There's a fantasy sports tax, dry cleaning tax, home repair tax, vehicle repair tax, digital personal property tax increase, new car taxes and highway use fees, gym membership tax, dog walking tax. A lot of people are wondering, how would this make life more affordable for people?”

    Quote

    The new proposed policies [in Virginia] include:

    • dog walking and grooming tax
    • gun and ammunition tax
    • new income tax brackets
    • storage facility tax
    • dry cleaning tax
    • home repair tax
    • new personal property tax on electric leaf blowers and electric landscaping equipment

    And, to battle the evil scourge of global warming, Virginians’ electric bills will be spiking, too:
