Original Note:
This is based on a Facebook post from 2019 of a fabricated quote. At the time Gov Northam said if law enforcement are not enforcing constitutional laws there could be consequences. It was congressman Donald McEachin who suggested the National Guard may be needed. https://www.wtkr.com/2019/12/11/gov-northam-says-localities-could-face-consequences-if-law-enforcement-officers-dont-enforce-gun-laws https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/the-law-is-the-law-virginia-democrats-float-prosecution-national-guard-deployment-if-police-dont-enforce-gun-control
