LURAY, Va. (AP) — A Virginia parent has been charged for her comments to a local school board weighing whether to align its mask-wearing policy with a new executive order by Gov. Glenn Youngkin.

Police in the town of Luray said that Amelia Ruffner King, 42, was charged with making an oral threat while on school property and released.

King made a reference to guns while speaking at the Page County School Board meeting on Thursday as it was weighing whether to follow Youngkin’s order that would make masks optional for students.

King was charged for threatening to bring loaded guns to schools Monday to protest the Page County School Board’s mask mandate. Her threats came after the board said it would maintain mask mandates, in defiance of Republican Gov. Glenn Younkin’s executive order aimed at making masks optional in schools. The order, as written, allows parents to disregard local school mask mandates without reason.

Near the end of King’s remarks, when her time was up, she was heard saying: “And I will bring every single gun – loaded and ready to … I, I will call every.”

She later apologized to the board, saying she wasn’t referring to actual firearms.
