In response to the recent tragedy in Oakland County, Michigan, what did the anti-gunners do?
Following their standard course of action, they are politicizing the deaths of four high school teens in an attempt to undermine your constitutionally-protected rights.
In fact, bowing to the will of their far-Left overlords, anti-gun senators are bringing H.R. 8 to the Senate floor—which is a bill to institute Universal Background Registration Checks (UBCs).
And to make matters worse, they are trying to do this by unanimous consent—without an actual vote.
Please, contact your Senators and make sure they know you’re opposed to H.R. 8 and demand they promise to oppose the bill.
And then if you have time, please follow up by calling your Senators at 202-224-3121. Time is of the essence.
Late on Wednesday afternoon and well into the evening, GOA’s team began rallying the troops on Capitol Hill.
In response, many pro-gun senators began placing “holds” on the bill to keep it from passing.
Good on them!
But tomorrow, you can expect the anti-gunners to walk down to the Senate floor and continue their stunt by using a parliamentary tactic called “Live Unanimous Consent” or Live UC.
Gun Owners of America worked with Senator Braun and Representative Michael Cloud to Live UC a pro-gun bill earlier this Congress, and you can watch our Minute Man Moment Episode about it here if you want to watch the process in action.
Basically, if an anti-gun Senator walks down to the floor tomorrow and asks the Senate to pass H.R. 8 by unanimous consent, and there is no pro-gun Senator on the floor to object, then gun control would pass.
Gun Owners of America expects at least one pro-gun ally to meet the anti-gunners on the Senate floor and stop this whole anti-gun charade.
But it’s still important that the grassroots get involved.
It’s our goal to get you, the grassroots activist, the tools you need to fight back against the nonsense in Washington, D.C.
So please, use GOA’s action alert tool and let your voice be heard! Tell your Senator that you are opposed to Universal Background Registration Checks and that they should be too!
Like I said, GOA’s team is on top of things in Washington D.C. and is working overtime to make sure there is a pro-gun Senator there to object to this madness when it happens.
But I hope you can see how critical it is to be vigilant when defending your constitutional rights.
Even if your Senator is an anti-gunner through and through, send them an action alert and chastise them for undermining the Bill of Rights.
Hopefully, your Senator was one of GOA’s allies who today helped the cause of freedom by placing what’s known as a “hold” on the bill, which would prevent it from quickly passing. Knowing which Senators placed “holds” is private information, but if you ask a Senator’s staff, they might let you know.
So if your Senator is one of the pro-gunners, send him or her a big thank you from GOA!
You’ll never know unless you contact your Senator and ask!
This is the first I have heard about this.

the commies are 90 percent to home base already with their various abrogations of our Constitutionally=recognized rights as citizens of USA
lose the very last vestige of the 2A and all the rest of our rights are down the toilet, this is why the commie/nazis are working so incredibly hard to erase 2A rights.. SorozNazi and his evil cabal KNOW that the very first (and necessary!) thing that a Hitler or Stalin type dictatorship does is disarm the citizenry. After that, the population is helpless, mere sheep all set up for the slaughter... and yes it CAN happen here

Don't give up hope until we get a ruling in New York State Rifle and Pistol Ass'n v Bruen, the concealed license case just argued before the Supreme Court.
In that ruling we may well get what standard of scrutiny is appropriate for 2A cases, which will start to chip away at these magazine capacity limits, rifle bans, etc.
thanks
hope is essential,yes
it is just that this court is far from trustworthy when it comes to the US Constitution
we will see
thanks
How about we just put all parents of minors who kill, in jail for life.
I sure hope everyone is too busy contacing their U.S. Senators to reply to this article, and that’s why their are so few replies.
Anyway, I just finished calling and emailing my two RINO Senators, here, in South Carolina (for all the good I expect it will do.)
Bttt.
5.56mm
Yeah! And why not throw all the little brothers and sisters of minors who kill in jail for life, too. /sarc.
Hey, why don't we just execute murderers for committing murders, and do it posthaste in a very public setting after a speedy trial. I guarantee that will take care of ALL cases of recidivism.
Whoops! Sorry about that! I hit the Post button, instead of Preview.
Wow! I “feel” so special. I got an automatic email back from Lindsey Graham already. And he listed 3 ways I can follow him. (Frankly, I wouldn’t follow Lindsey Graham out of a burning building.)
Thank you for taking the time to contact me. I appreciate the opportunity to hear from you.
In spite of the high volume of mail I receive daily, I look forward to reviewing your correspondence and providing a response as soon as possible.
As we continue our work in the 117th Congress, I look forward to supporting our troops in the War on Terror, repairing our economy and creating jobs, strengthening Social Security, lowering the tax burden on American families, and making the federal government more accountable and efficient.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if I may be of further assistance to you or your family, and if you need immediate assistance, please call my office at 202-224-5972. If your correspondence pertains to a scheduling request, please fax your request to (202) 224-3808.
Sincerely,
Lindsey Graham

Done and done. Thank you!
If you allow your underage child to take a gun you bought to school and kill people yes you should go to jail. It’s the only way to fight these school shootings.
If your 10 year old takes your car keys and kills someone with your car, yes you should go to jail.
Everyone of these high school shootings kids took the parents’ weapon. School had discussions with parents their child had issues. Many of these kids on psych meds.

OK, I have to admit I have frequently thought that so-called "parents" of America's "street urchins" should be prosecuted for failing to civilize their "children." And certainly parents need to be held accountable to a significant degree for the actions of their children. However, when we have the government medicating, indoctinating and teaching them that their is no God (but Fauci) then who is really at fault? The government thinks they own them anyway (and the rest of us.)
Funny, I don't remember all these school shootings, carjackings, gang killings and murders in general when I was in my younger days.
What changed.
The Democrats aka Demoncrats goals: Bankrupt the middle class, disarm the law abiding citizens, declare the US Republic dead and welcome the new, improved Democratic Socialist States of America ... under martial law of course
They’re VERY close to getting everything they want, and they’re starting to try to rush things through.
The American people that survive the vaxxes mandates will be much more receptive of the new world order once they get a little taste of the world of the American Holodomor they have planned for us.
Communists love mass murder and starvation.
Doesn't matter what they "pass". The only way our rights are lost is if we fail to exercise them. Will you comply when the time comes? Have you already shown them that you will comply when your comfortable life is threatened?
My senators are Duckworth and Durbin, I may as well piss up a rope…
