Virginia Attorney General Herring brags about using pandemic to shut down popular gun show

The Virginia Democratic Attorney General took to Twitter to brag about using virus restriction as an excuse to “block” one of the country’s largest gun shows from operating. He said he was “pleased” that a judge agreed with him.

On Thursday, Attorney General Mark Herring tweeted in response to winning a lawsuit filed by The Nation’s Gun Show trying to remain open:

“I have successfully BLOCKED a massive gun show from operating at full capacity this week in NOVA.

“Putting hundred or even thousands of Virginians at risk for the sole purpose of selling guns is just not worth it and I’m pleased that the Judge agreed with me.”
