Sorry shootall:
This time it was my misunderstanding then.
Thank you.
You are correct about local ordenaces and city laws.
The problem is they try to over ride State law which is open carry .
In a vehicle I beleave the state says no loaded long gun but you can have a loaded handgun as long as it is in plain view.
I do agree that the last thing we need or want is more laws or government intrusion into our lives.
I was brought up to beleave that you never put a childs life in danger no matter what, and I feel she was doing just that.
As for her safty, that is her business and it really doesn't matter to me.
It is her decision.
The young child/baby does not or cant make that choice.
I too beleave in breastfeeding a child.
It is the most natural thing a mother can do and promotes a bond that no one can ever break.
Heck I am 51 and still like to be suckled to a breast!
I too hate seatbelts and had I been wearing one the night manys years ago as a older teen when I blew out a left front tire going into a right hand turn.
The car went across the road, hit the bank, went up the bank and rolled three times landing on the top.
If I hadn't thought about grabbing hold of the underside of the seat to help keep me as flat as possible I am sure I would not be here today.
Not much left of the car.
Oh BTW, I did get a wreckless driving ticket even though I was well under the speed limit, 40 in a 55.
The state cop said that if I didn't contest it that he would ask the judge to drop the charge, which he did.
Back then it was not a law to have to wear a seatbelt.
Va law does state that a child must be straped in a car seat or booster seat in the rear seat of a car under a certain age and height/weight.
I guess we have pretty well beat this thread up.
I just felt she was wrong.
I hope no hard feelings guys as there really isn't any on this end.
