YouTube is now blocking links to the State of Virginia Legislative Information System (LIS). On Saturday, the YouTube channel Guns & Gadgets posted a video titled “Virginia Anti-Gun Bills To Be Heard Jan 13,” wherein the proprietor discussed the 10 bills that will come before the Virginia legislature beginning January 13. In the video’s description, he listed LIS links to the text for each bill. As of 1 a.m. Sunday morning, YouTube was blocking the links with the following warning:
Does the State of Virginia know that YouTube suspects their site of “malware, phishing attempts, or disturbing content?” The anti-gun bills are certainly disturbing, but probably not in the way that YouTube intended to convey.

What we are witnessing is an attack by the media on the citizens of Virginia. Media oligarchs don’t want you to see the laws that politicians are about to pass. We can ask, “Why bother having sunshine laws, when the oligarchy will attempt to block the sunshine?” Remember, the virulent left has a strategy. As Nancy Pelosi said, “…we have to pass the bill so that you can, ah, find out what is in it…”
On Friday, the Virginia legislature voted to ban firearms in the Capitol building and in the legislative offices of the Pocahontas building. In a case of guns for us but not for thee, Sen. Amanda Chase (R-11th) has worn a gun on the Senate floor, but suddenly the majority of Democrat lawmakers are worried about their safety if law abiding Virginia citizens are allowed into the building with holstered firearms, as they have been allowed in the past.
The gun ban was designed and passed as a preemptive strike on lawful citizens to disarm them before Lobby Day on Jan. 20, when at least 100 bus loads of citizens will arrive at the Capitol to confront Democrat lawmakers over their anti-gun agenda. The gun ban is a perfect expression of why we have the second amendment.
