West Virginia Preemption Law

Many who fight hard to infringe on the rights to keep and carry firearms have been allies in the right to keep and carry knives. This creates momentum and precedent to remove infringements on the right to arms generally.
SB 96 in West Virginia has been referred to the House. If it passes a House vote, it will need to be signed by Governor Jim Justice to become law.
I think Dean meant to say “Many who fight hard against infringements of the RKBA …” The statement would make better sense that way.
He’s right, we’re natural allies, knife rights and gun rights folks. But until West Virginia deals with the crooks in its midst, the people are under tyranny. It’s just local tyranny, not state. But the state is complicit if they do nothing.
Where is the state AG on Sheriff Steve Deweese, sdeweese@putnamwv.org? He and his deputies are the crooks I’m talking about.

I think the original wording is correct. Knife Rights has received support from leftists as well as pro 2nd amendment politicians because knife laws can be easily framed as targeting minorities. It’s partly why Knife Rights has accomplished so much on such a tiny budget.
