January 4, 1996

Virginia

Fairfax County politicians are attempting to limit your rights to
self-defense by prohibiting law-abiding citizens who have received carry
permits from carrying their protective firearms into county owned
buildings.  This would not only weaken your rights to self-defense, but
would also threaten Virginia preemption.

There will be a public hearing on Saturday, Jan. 6th at the Fairfax
County Government Center.  The hearing will start at 9:00 am in the
auditorium.  Virginia gun owners are encouraged to attend to show their
opposition to these proposals.  Call 324-3151 to get on the speakers
list or just show up to give your support.

The meeting room is to your immediate right as you enter the Library.

The Northern Virginia Citizens Defense League is a grassroots
organization dedicated to defending the civil rights of all Virginians.
The membership of the NVCDL considers the right to keep and bear arms an
essential civil right. The NVCDL invites all Virginians who support the
Bill of Rights to join our grassroots effort.

PERSONAL PROTECTION ACT REPEAL INTRODUCED!

Anti-gun rights politician Del. Bob Hull has introduced HB3, a bill that
would repeal the Personal Protection Act (Virginia's new "shall issue"
concealed weapons law).   This bill is unlikely to pass, however this
bill will likely be used to focus media attention on the anti-selfdense
lobby's (HCI, VAHV, et al)  efforts to place onerous restrictions on the
right to carry in Virginia.   We must continue to make our voices heard.
Fax or mail a letter to your Senator and Delegate in support of your gun
rights!   Write a letter to the editor of your local newspaper.
