South Central LA Tea Party Founder Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson and supporters along with the NRA and concerned citizens showed up in force to a recent Glendale City Council hearing on banning gun shows. Countless Second Amendment advocates spoke eloquently and factually about how banning gun shows does nothing to make communities safer. Defying logic and common sense the City Council and mayor voted 3-2 to ban future gun shows. They also made it a crime to possess legally purchased firearms on city property. The council meeting was packed and Second Amendment supporters outnumbered the gun grabbers at least 3 to 1. After the belligerent Glendale Mayor Frank Quintero shouted down a couple of the speakers, Rev. Peterson confronted him and they had a heated exchange. The exchange can be seen in the extended video below (around 1:30 mark after the first speaker).
The South Central L.A. Tea Party was formed by Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson, who is the Founder and President of BOND Action, a 501 (c) (4) nonprofit organization dedicated to educating, motivating and rallying Americans to greater involvement in the moral, cultural and political issues that threaten our great country. The South Central L.A. Tea Party is a black-led organization that loves and supports Americathe greatest nation in recorded history. We stand for God, freedom, family and country, and urge a return to Constitutional government in America. SCLA TP is open to patriotic men and women of all races.
Hi PGalt, its nice to see you again too...!
If I were still living in L.A. I’d be standing with these folks. I’m so proud of what they’re doing.
Me too! I’m in Oregon.
I should probably look them up online and send them a thank you note. Given that they’re operating behind ‘enemy lines’, I’m sure they can use all the morale boosters they can get.
I am sure they would appreciate that...!
I just sent them a message, thanking them for what they're doing. The contact form can be found here:

We dont have to out number them in their friggin meetings, we have to out number them on the ballot and vote their dumb asses out...
I totally agree but remember that IS KALIFORNIA. These same type libs have infested this country like a plaque and now we deal with it from a “minority” position.
I love gun shows. I especially like chatting with decent folks who have decided to sell one of their firearms themselves. All I ask from them is that they let me take a picture of the serial number and their photo identification together. I’m amazed at the number of guns that can be purchased that have had zero or hardly any rounds through them. Sometimes I listen in while they are trying to sell to a dealer then if they don’t sell add a few bucks to the dealers offer after they walk away from the dealer and offer that to them.
I’ve bought lots of guns this way and will keep doing so.
God Bless Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson, he is making a difference!!
Take them all down. Let them scratch by on Social Security in a cheap rental. Reward them with the fruits of their labors.
I'm a 6'3” Italian, so I guess that means you and I would see eye to eye, over a nice cold Guinness of course. #;^)
Can’t do that here in Commieforny.
Nobody walks out of a Gun Show with a Gun. Ten Day waiting period and a whole bunch of paperwork.
Someday I’ll go to a real Gun Show in one of the Free States. It’s on my Bucket List.
