What's great about this thread is that it is an attempt to get 2A minded folks organized just like the anti 2A members are.
Pro-gunners think the 2A is going to protect their rights, and that is not what is happening in the US.
Anti gunners are chipping away at our rights one vote at a time and they are organized.
Big money behind them like Bloomburg because they know once they get the guns they own the people.
Guns are the only thing that keep us free citizens.
I argued with a citizen from Great Britain once about why do Americans need guns when those in Britain don't.
It's because we aren't subjects of the crown like they are and we are free society where we have rights.
Great Britain used to be one of the places where some of the most expensive guns in the world were built. It's very limited now.

Well said Dennis- I have been saying, in fact, I said it at our Meeting Sat. 2/29/20- Our Enemies are organized and if we don't get organized they will bury us one at a time -->AND I do mean that LITERALLY! Quote Ben Franklin->"We must hang together or we will hang separately"- as true today as in 1776.

At our meeting Sat. 2/29/20 we had Coleman, Peiffer, & Luttrell speak as well as Sheriff Steve Kelly, who addressed Kay County becoming 2A Sanctuary County - Also Brian Hobbs, Conservative Republican Mayor of Newkirk, OK. It was a Great meeting.

Next Kay County Chapter -> 3/28/20 at 12:00 Noon - Program to be announced soon.
