So if I lived in Virginia, I would just go out and target practice on Sunday during hunting season... Do you suppose Virginia has laws forbidding driving motorcycles and 4WD vehicles off road through the countryside on Sunday? How about flying? Those pesky aircraft sure do make a lot of noise...and barking DOGS...Wow, maybe they should consider making dog owners muzzle their dogs on Sunday too...
