DENVER, Col. – -(AmmoLand.com)- Saturday, May 18th, 11am to 2pm, Rally for our Rights is hosting a TAKE BACK THE SECOND rally at the Colorado State Capitol.

This event has been in the works since the Colorado Legislature passed HB19-1177 “Red Flag” Emergency Risk Protection Orders ERPO.

Event speakers will include:

Evan Todd – Columbine High School Shooting survivor
Weld County Sheriff Steve Reams – leader in opposition to ERPO and Second Amendment Sanctuary Counties
Antonia Okafor – Black, Armed & Conservative and Founder of EmPOWERed
Robert Wareham – Recall Sheriff Tony Spurlock
Lesley Hollywood – Founder and Director of Rally for our Rights
and many more.
Event emcee will be Jimmy Lakey of 600 KCOL radio.

With the passage of Colorado’s “Red Flag” gun confiscation bill, people are angry – and they should be. This unconstitutional and downright dangerous piece of legislation was opposed by citizens and law enforcement alike, while bill sponsors admitted it had nothing to do with mental health. Rally for our Right founder, Lesley Hollywood said, “The privileged politicians under the Golden Dome forced through this law knowing THEY will never have to enforce it. They do not care about law enforcement or gun owners lives, they only care about their agenda of taking away guns from those who have never committed a crime. They only care about their end goal of disarming citizens no matter the collateral damage.”

Rally for our Rights organizers are asking participants to keep their partisan politics at home and focus on the issue at hand – protecting the Right to Keep and Bear Arms, emphasizing the Second Amendment is non-partisan.

In conjunction with the rally, event hosts will be raising money for the Kendrick Castillo fund, honoring the brave hero who lost his life last week when two mentally disturbed students went on a violent rampage in their own school.

Those interested in attending can RSVP and learn more on Facebook at www.facebook.com/events/396917181159814 or at www.rallyforourrights.com. The event will also be live streamed to the Rally for our Rights Facebook page.

TAKE BACK THE SECOND will take place as follows:

Saturday, May 18, 2019 11am – 2pm Colorado State Capitol – West Steps 200 E Colfax Denver, CO

Rally for our Rights is a non-partisan gun rights advocacy organization that was founded in early 2018. It has quickly become Colorado’s most active Second Amendment group with a focus on frontline activism and community outreach.

You elected democrats, Colorado! I can understand my NY electing dhimmicrats. But we NE conservatives look up the the Wild West.
It was all those ski slopes. It attracted them like rats to feces.

I would be very careful attending an event like this. Remember Eric Clanton got three years PROBATION. If you go you will be joining with others in an open space, very little cover and NO concealment, if you get my meaning.

Remember the Tyranny Response Team? Formed because of a REPUBLICAN governor. We had rallies with snipers overlooking us, people taking down license plates in the parking area...

So yeah, I get your meaning.

Were you at the Longmont rally? I rememer the Longmont SWAT team strutting around being all high-speed, low-drag trying to intimidate. I’ve still got my t-shirt somewhere.

I still have two TRT t-shirts bought in support of CO gun rights. CO is also home of NAGR, National Association for Gun Rights, one of the big four, NAGR, GOA, JPFO, and lastly NRA.

NRA is lastly because of their senseless endorsement of democrats who may love hunting and skeet, but despise personal protection as well as the real reason for the second, protection from tyranny. NRA has been around since 1871 and been a part of the problem since then, although they have certainly been able to capitalize on their memberships willingness to support their efforts to pass bad legislation. NFA, 1968, and the 1986 law that effectivly banned machine guns.

Can’t necessarily fault the NRA for trying, not when all that cash flows through their hands, but gun owners sure could use a united effort to protect the second amendment, because the NRA has been a losing effort by and large. Just my humble opinion. Neal Knox might have had a hand in forming my opinion.
