To Whomever is Concerned:
Prince Georges' County has Introduced Legislation that would Create a 'Gun Offender Registry'!
The Article is Published here: http://www.afro.com/sections/news/prince-georges-county-news/story.htm?storyid=74891
This is a Clear Violation of Virginia Code 15.2-915, and such Action by Prince Georges' County is Preempted under Virginia Law!

Oops. Well wouldn't that database include pretty much everyone in the county who OWNS a gun then?Council member Karen Toles (D)
Prince Georges County Council.... Merryland
I'm not sure how 15.2-915 would apply, as this doesn't seem to govern "the purchase, possession, transfer, ownership, carrying, storage or transporting of firearms, ammunition, or components or combination thereof..."
However, since Virginia is a Dillon Rule state, I also don't know how they would find authority for this in the Code of Virginia, either.
We need a User opinion.
