7/10/18: Vermont AG seeks to dismiss lawsuit over gun magazine law
"The state can impose resonable regulations on the possession of firearems, including regulating high-capacity magazines in the interest of gun safety, in the interest of public health, in the interest of public safety," Donovan said. "Other states have imposed high capacity magazine bans and they've all been upheld. This is nothing radical. This is in the interest of public safety. This is in the interest of public health."
Gun Control is a VIOLATION OF YOUR OATH OF OFFICE!

T.J. is as rabid as they come. Even note the 40% statistic on background checks (from 1997 - The year BEFORE background checks were actually ENACTED!)
He lies about loopholes… He wants unadjudicated people to be put on terrorist watchlists… and more!

8/31/2016: "Donovan is part of a Democratic push to impose background checks on all gun sales, and to prevent suspected terrorists from purchasing guns. His opponent [Deb Bucknam] has been endorsed by Gun Owners of Vermont and believes Vermont needs no new gun laws"

7/11/2016: Important distinction in candidates relating to public disclosure. This is very pertinent to the Burlington Charter Changes and the refusal to turn over to the public documentation on the secret meetings and agendas being kept out of the publuic's view.
