Northam is sending two other proposals back to state lawmakers with recommended changes. One would allow local authorities to regulate firearms at certain buildings and events, and the other would ban those subject to protective orders from possessing firearms and require them to turn over firearms within 24 hours, according to the newspaper. The measures come as the Democratic-led General Assembly has taken efforts to enact a slew of gun control measures following a mass shooting in Virginia Beach last year. Republicanstate lawmakers have pushed back. In July, they ended a special session called by Northam to take up gun control measures in 90 minutes.The gun lobby was able to water down some of the bills backed by the governor. While we still dont like them, theyre not as bad as they once were.
