The proposed amendment to 4VAC10-30-170 is very important to the safety of all Virginians as well as anyone who visits the Commonwealth. 

Criminals do no obey laws, it is the law-abiding, voting and tax-paying citizen who is harmed by legislation that prohibits their ability to protect themselves. 

I know I would not like to be unarmed in a forrest of wild (possibly rabid) animals or get into a sticky situation with poachers, would you?

Thank you for your consideration,
