This bill was killed in subcommittee on an unrecorded vote after being rolled into Del David Toscano's HB281. Del. David Poisson supported the bill, Dels. Morgan Griffith, Scott Lingamfelter, Dave Nutter and Tommy Wright opposed it. Here's the video.

Good example of a "Republicans gone wild." They're so worried about offending the NRA crowd that they're afraid to take guns away from suspected stalkers and spouse abusers. At least they quashed this one quick -- now they'll have plenty of time to break more traditions and plot to embarrass Democrats. What a pathetic group!
