A sketch of a gun-toting Statue of Liberty is fast becoming the most popular piece of amateur propaganda created in the wake of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

Created by Eliza Gauger, a 17-year-old student from Bellingham, Washington, the skillful drawing of "Mommy Liberty" has been reprinted in newspapers across the country and has been turned into posters, coffee mugs, T-shirts and baseball caps.

Bump for liberty.


Support the Red Cross and the NY Firefighter’s Memorial Fund through the purchase of Lady Liberty T-shirts from Cotton Cargo for $10.00 each.

A percentage of all proceeds will go to the American Red Cross to be used in the relief efforts following the attacks on America in New York and Washington, D.C. on Tuesday, September 11, 2001.

We will also be sending a percentage of the proceeds to the NY Firefighter’s Memorial Fund. All proceeds from the NY Firefighter's Memorial Fund will go to the families of our fallen brothers and sisters.

Cotton Cargo will only cover our costs in making the shirts. ALL OTHER MONEY WILL BE DONATED!!

Looks like a good graphic and slogan for Second Amendment Sisters to endorse.

Make that gun-toting women. I bought one, and please FReepers, please do the same.

Somebody who is on the 'inside' with Patrick Henry College ought to pull strings to get this young lady a scholarship.

Well guys, anybody have some influence to get this patriot a scholarship? As to totin' - if more women packed a gun like Mommy Liberty has, we'd have far less crime - less bus drivers with cut throats, less school & daycare shootings and fewer terrorists who could get away with their plans.

He has a Desert Eagle and a revolver -- both way too big and heavy for me to handle. You bet I'd shoot to kill if someone threatened me or my family. I "just" have to learn how to load and aim whatever we end up buying. He's thinking a 9mm.

I have a Mini Glock with a laser sight. I also just got a Beretta tomcat. It is much smaller than the Glock. The Glock has the safety on the trigger and the Beretta has the safety right on the handle. I really prefer the Glock. It's the one I have had the most practice with, but it does make my purse rather heavy. The other day I was out and someone picked up my purse to hand it to me when I was leaving and asked. " What do you have in here?" I said, "Everything I need" but thought. "You don't wanta know."
