""Brady Gun Law Defense Fund [image]Last week, a Federal Appeals Court overturned Washington D.C.’s long-standing restrictions on handguns — a decision that endangers all of America’s gun laws."

Thats enough to warm the heart.

"More gun owners should consider joining and supporting the NRA, GOA, and SAF."

I just rejoined...can't wait to get my free duffle bag.

Seriously, NRA would get and hold more members if they could keep their membership records straight.

I got my shots! Although, it might be a good idea to get a booster before inviting such activity.

Yeah, I heard a Brady sponsored add on the radio yesterday evening urging would-be Maryland gun-grabbers to contact their legislators and urge them to pass the so-called assault weapon ban.

The Appeals Court ruling really has them scrambling...

I cannot fathom he could win the nomination.

70 years of erroneous precedent!!!

Attorney Stephen Halbrook's extensive historical research lead him to this interesting conclusion:

"In recent years it has been suggested that the Second Amendment protects the 'collective' right of states to maintain militias, while it does not protect the right of
'the people' to keep and bear arms. If anyone entertained this notion in the period during which the Constitution and Bill of Rights were debated and ratified, it remains one of the most closely guarded secrets of the eighteenth century, for no known writing surviving from the period between 1787 and 1791 states such a thesis. The phrase 'the people' meant
the same thing in the Second Amendment as it did in the First, Fourth, Ninth and Tenth
Amendments -- that is, each and every free person."

And further:
The "collective rights" theory originated in U.S. v. Tot, (1943). The historical
references in Tot simply do not support its thesis. See Halbrook, That Every Man Be Armed
189-191 (1984). http://www.gunlaws.com/books3.htm. Subsequent cases merely string cite to
earlier cases which are ultimately traceable to Tot. http://www.gunlaws.com/SCGC-News.html.

This battle — to its very core — is the most important battle we have ever waged.

Yes, it is! I would suggest that you folks remember exactly who it is that has the guns, and what it's going to cost you to try to take them away from us! Before you start this war, I would advise you to make sure you have your Will written, your funeral paid for and above all else, make your peace with God, because you will be meeting Him shortly after this war begins! The guy who shot Jim was a bad shot. Don't count on the rest to be! America's have seen the writing on the wall. You can only push so far before we push back, and I promise that you will lose!!

Getting that off my chest, now I can say that they are in a rush to solicit money from people so that when they lose they will have a little money to tide them over because after that, they will have to go out and get 'real jobs' like everyone else has. Bwaaaaahahahahaha!

" If they used that argument in the 1950's"

I think they did, look up The Southern Manifesto (I think it's linked off a page about Strom Thurmond).

It makes the case that desegregation is unconstitutional.
