I'd like to know too. What comments did the City Council members have?

Nevermind, I found the video online. Lasted all of 3 minutes. no speakers, repeal passed unanimously by the Council with a statement to "explore alternative legislative approaches"

from NRA/CRPA LAWYERS: FACED WITH IMMINENT LAWSUIT,
RICHMOND CITY COUNCIL REPEALS MAGAZINE BAN

December 2, 2009



Should the City of Richmond or any other jurisdiction try to adopt alternative proposals that
seek to regulate the possession of firearm magazines, the legal groundwork laid in preparation
for this suit will allow for a swift challenge to those measures in court.

This is my favorite part....
