Our Rights and our Freedoms are Under Attack
« on: January 12, 2013, 10:34:19 AM »
Our Rights and our Freedoms are Under Attack

Every person that reads or participates in this forum should be communicating to ALL of their State and Federal representatives regarding the attacks on our rights and freedoms.  This includes President Obama and Vice-President Biden.  The anti-gun zealots are riding a tidal wave of public emotion because of the Newtown, Connecticut tragedy. 

If you have been writing your representatives and involved protecting our Freedoms and Second Amendment Rights, THANK YOU!  Please keep it up and urge all of your family friends and colleagues to do the same.

Those of you that have done nothing but complain about what’s happening; it’s time for YOU to stand up for your rights.  No action on your part constitutes a surrender flag to give up your rights, your freedoms, and your guns.  There is NO excuse to not fight for your rights and freedoms.

Write your representatives.   A few minutes of your time to write a quick email to your representatives is nothing compared to the time you may spend reading and making comments in this forum.  Use the NRA-ILA Write-Your-Reps tool.  You can connect with ALL of your representatives in just few minutes.

Keep on writing!  Flood their email boxes with your opposition to the attacks on our Second Amendment Rights and law-abiding citizens.



Here are a few articles describing what is happening now.


NRA: Biden meetings are just for 'show'

Biden Says, "Critically Important to Act" on Guns--Opens Door to Executive Action

http://www.nraila.org/news-issues/articles/2013/1/biden-says,-critically-important-to-act-on-guns.aspx


Excerpt from article:

“… These proposed actions are not simply another rehash of old, failed strategies.  This is an all-out attack on the Constitution and the rule of law.  This is about the wholesale destruction of gun rights in this country. This is about destroying everything the NRA has done over the last 20 years.  The gloves are off and we need to face the challenge squarely—RIGHT NOW—EVERY ONE OF US!  Every gun owner, every freedom-loving American--whether an NRA member or not--needs to take action.  Gun sales have gone through the roof, but buying guns is not a political strategy.  If you've just bought guns, magazines and ammo, now you need to invest the time in doing what it takes to keep them.

NRA's members and the tens of millions of other law-abiding American gun owners must stand united and take action!  Vice President Biden is scheduled to deliver his proposals to President Obama on Tuesday, January 15.  NOW is the time for you to contact lawmakers in Washington, D.C., and in your state, and let them know that gun bans and other restrictions on our Second Amendment rights are not the solution…”

Many of us figured it out decades ago.  However, it's those that like to sit on their thumbs, complain, and then do nothing that we need to get motivated.  Doing nothing is not an option anymore; there is far too much at risk.  There is NO time to put this off until later.  All of this is happening NOW.

If there is a planned rally, have local hunting, shooting, and conservation organizations been involved to help support it and get their membership involved?  To really have an impact, hundreds or thousands need to show up.  Who is organizing this rally?
