I remember you on that thread. Very valid opinion.

The safety of a free America depends on the private ownership of the same arms a foot soldier carries at whatever given point in time as to be competitive in the overthrough of a tyranny; up to and including sniper rifles, combat rifles(or whatever it is they call assault rifles)shotguns, sidearms, hand grenades and light machine guns(M-60?).

I believe that was the intention of the 2nd Ammendment by the founding fathers.

The advance of a gun owner registry is solely designed to allow for the incrimental dissarming of the citizens. When an arms manufacturer cooperates with gun registration, whether to financially proffit, or just to survive, they must be boycotted by the consumers in order to befuddle the effort.

Thanks.

Gun owners and others truly interested in civil-rights are often lulled by persons or agencies that are related to their industry and cause do not offer direct opposition to the rights they seek to protect. The sloppy thinking is roughly along the lines that since a company is in the business of making firearms, then surely they must side with the citizenry on issues of firearm ownership...

This is a critical mistake.

It may seem extreme, but I would rather spend my dollars with firms that clearly demonstrate commitment to 2A rights with memberships or funding of the NRA or GOA or in support of legislation to protect 2A rights, build shooting ranges, fund training camps or programs for kids, etc. Simply putting an American flag on your promotional literature doesn't cut jack with me.

Through consumer pressure, the Left has managed to put many businesses on the rather shakey ground of proving their commitment to environmental goals like 'sustainability' or 'greeness' or whathaveyou. Freedom loving Americans ought to do the same for the sake of future freedom with the industries and vendors that make their living from the 2A, because the unscrupulous among them will gladly make the machine guns needed to do away with the same 2A and individual freedom.
