DID THE NRA AND VCDL ABANDON CONCEAL CARRY?
Or did Craven Graven, the Lyin' Lawyer of Louisa pull another shifty shenanigan? OPINION.
Louisa's lawyer ‘Craven’ Graven Craig, believes no one will fact-check his claims. Most people believe what they see on social media if it is terrible news, and he is counting on that. He put out the ad pictured below and makes the claim Buddy Fowler, who received both the NRA’s and VCDL’s endorsement, is against Conceal Carry!
Craven Graven is asking you to believe that not only Fowler but the NRA and VCDL are opposed to concealed carry as they picked Fowler over Craven Graven. If you buy Craig’s story, the only logical conclusion is both these 2nd Amendment associations have gone feral by endorsing Fowler, or Craven is a liar. I believe Craven Graven is the liar and not that the VCDL, NRA, or Buddy Fowler are out of their minds.
You don’t have to believe me; let’s ask my research assistant Orange Cat Bad:
OCB checked out the State Legislature website for the supposed bill that Delegate Buddy Fowler voted down Conceal Carry, and here is what he found:
If you check out the bill, like Orange Cat Bad, you will find that none of the professional organizations in question asked for or wanted this bill. The Bill failed 35-62. One of the big problems was that the language in the bill needed to be more balanced and less sketchy. We all know how lawyers exploit sketchy language. Lawyer Craig knows this bill failed but assumes you would be frightened or confused by his presenting it as passed legislation and react without checking his story. Meow!
OCB, call Del. Fowler and see what he says!
“OCB! I am a huge advocate of concealed carry and the 2nd Amendment. However, all of the professional organizations named were opposed to this bill. Including the Va Department of Criminal Justice Services, the Va Association of Fire Chiefs, EMS, Volunteer Rescue, Virginia Professional Firefighters Program, and others, due to liability issues and inherent problems with the language of the bill. My opponent wants to nitpick and make it seem I am not for our rights. I am the only candidate endorsed by the NRA and VCDL, and I would not have their endorsement if I were not a strong advocate for good 2A legislation. My opponent is trying to portray a half-truth that is simply a whole lie. Thank you for inquiring about this matter.” Meow, meow, meow!
So there you have it, folks. The lying lawyer of Louisa is trying to pull a fast one on you with this claim. It’s the kind of cheesy trick you’d expect from Never-Trumpers.
