Exactly. In a similar vein, here in Virginia, localities are now allowed to pass their own firearms laws regarding carry and permitted concealed carry. Everywhere new restrictions are proposed, there is an overwhelming turnout by pro-gun advocates, yet city councils and county boards almost always enact new restrictions. Their minds are made up and the oral arguments are a show.
