Second Amendment Sisters Announce Mothers Day Pro-Gun Rights Rally

LAKEWAY, Texas, December 3, 2003--The Second Amendment Sisters (SAS) are proud to announce that they will be holding the SAFER, or Second Amendment Freedoms for Everyone Rally on Mother’s Day 2004.

The SAFER event will be held on Sunday May 9, 2004 in Washington, DC, currently scheduled for Freedom Plaza from 11am until 3pm.

The first SAS rally, which was named the “Armed Informed Mothers Rally & March”, was organized in direct response to the so-called “Million” Mom March (MMM). Both rallies were held on Mothers Day 2000.

“It is important that we continue to counter the anti-rights crowd head on. While we really would prefer not to have a rally on Mothers Day, we felt a great need to be there on this Mothers Day, yet again.” stated Dianne Sawyer, President of Second Amendment Sisters, “Mothers are the backbone of this nation. Increasingly, more women are arming themselves. Women are realizing that they personally have to take steps to assure their own safety, and often the safety of their children. By far, the safest means of self-defense is a firearm.”

SAS, an all unpaid volunteer organization, has grown into a national organization with dues paying members throughout the United States, and Coordinators in nearly 30 states. “Self Defense is a Basic Human Right”™ is the SAS motto.

For further information and updates on the SAFER event, please check the special SAFER page on the SAS website at www.2asisters.org/SAFER or call 877-798-2828

FAST FACTS-
-According to the U.S. Supreme Court, criminals do not have to obtain licenses or register their weapons, as that would be an act of self-incrimination. (Haynes vs. U.S. 390 U.S. 85, 1968)
-In 1976, Washington, D.C. enacted on of the most restrictive gun control laws in the nation. Since then, the city’s murder rate has risen 134 percent while the national murder rate has dropped 2 percent. (Dr. Gary Kleck, University of Florida using FBI Uniform Crime Statistics, 1997)

I'm coming - I'm bringing my pit bull.

Pit bulls are OK, but being that this is in DC, leave the Bull Pup at home.

(Only the criminals can be armed in DC)

Howdy, little Sis. Well, there might be a rally in Sacramento but I haven't heard anything for sure. We're encouraging as many people as possible to high-tail it to Wash DC to show those Million Mom Morons what for. There will be more details to follow . . . Yahoo!!!

Don't think that I don't know that. I never disappoint a lady with a gun.

Mark your calendars.
I plan on having the Mudpuppy family there.
We attended the first one back in 2000 and it was great!

I get to show my support for the Second Amendment with the SASSY Ladies and their FRiends, and the SASSY ladies and their FRiends are invited to help me celebrate my 63rd birthday at FReedom Plaza on May 9 2004!

How can I help?

Could you or someone else post a flier advertising the event? Those of us embedded in blue country could post them in strategic spots, if you catch my drift, to advertise this event. That way, we could have more than 20 people show up for the event.

We've got the date for the Ladies Handgun Seminar in Bakersfield,
California: Saturday, January 31, 2004, at Second Amendment Sports!
First come, first served - we have space for 30 ladies. The event was
touted on the radio this morning! (That was last Saturday.) We will have classroom instruction in
the morning, lunch, and then shooting practice in the afternoon. No
charge. (I'm working on a flyer but wanted to give SAS a heads up on
this forum.)

Dean Gardner, candidate for state assembly, is sponsoring this event.
Dean and his wife Ruth are well known advocates and champions for our
gun rights.

We are so very fortunate to have Don Busse as our instructor!! He is
the founder of "Martial Arms" (tactical marksmanship and scenario
training) www.martialarms.com. Don has more than 30 years of firearms
experience. He is one of only five four-weapon combat masters in the
world and one of the few handgun combat masters. Don told me he's
looking forward to teaching the seminar! (I'm excited!!)

If someone wants to get their name on the list now to save their spot,
call Ruth at 661-859-2600. When I get the flyer done, I'll send it out
to the SAS group. Yahoo!!! Saundra

Not only do I want to go, my husband wants to go -- and meet Don Busse. That sounds really great! Let me work on finding someone to keep my kids and I'll get back to you. Thanks!
