We’re the ones that are following the law, unlike the criminals they go out of their way to coddle.

We need loudly and continuously point out to people the stunningly obvious fact that CRIMINALS DO NOT OBEY THE LAW and therefore their silly little freedom destroying initiatives will only serve to empower them.

We need to root out the “Gun free” zones and expose them to be the danger to the public they truly are.

We need to find alternative to those venues whenever we can and give people a choice.

If someone wants to wuss out to the PC crowd, they need to know that they will pay the price in lost business and lost revenue.

Indeed, starting with Cinemark theaters.

Well, if there is only one gun grabber, as you indicate in the title, then there is nothing to worry about!

People! The time has come to for us to push back on the gun grabber’s agenda.

I'm on it.
My family went to the range this morning (Someone honked and gave us a thumb's up while we were standing outside the door) and did about 2 hours of, "Range Therapy."
And I am now posting my thoughts on the local news websites -while baking bread.

See? Just doing my part.

(Oh, BTW...
The guys at the range said that they were PACKED TO THE GILLS last weekend. Three new shooters arrived within the first three minutes of their opening.)

I guess folks could always get some of these sticky signs made up:

And put them up wherever they see a "Gun Free Zone" sign.
I happen to know someone that could make them and sell them.

"Single acts of tyranny may be ascribed to the accidental opinion of the day; but a series of oppressions, begun at a distinguished period, and pursued unalterably through every change of ministers(administrators) too plainly proves a deliberate, systematic plan of reducing us to slavery." Thomas Jefferson

The either funny or sad part about this quote is that history very clearly shows that the British governments of the 1760s and early 1770s had no such plan.

They were mostly just profoundly ignorant of America and stumbled their way from crisis to crisis.

This particular batch of ministers was arguably the most incompetent in British history. There was no master plan to enslave America, but then of course there was also zero attempt to address American worries by a bold plan that would satisfy them.

We need to focus on state / local.

Published: May 15, 2012

Oklahoma will become the 25th state to allow the open carrying of handguns.

Gov. Mary Fallin signed into law Tuesday a measure that allows Oklahomans to openly carry handguns.

The measure, Senate Bill 1733, allows those who are licensed to carry a firearm under the Oklahoma Self Defense Act a choice: to openly carry a weapon or conceal it.

“Come and Take them”! This fight stared long ago and I’ve had enough of fighting these idiots. Have been since Klinton came to power and started sending my tax dollars to these groups. Ask yourself how they can have a “gun buyback” when they never owned your gun. They can send guns to Mexico to trump up charges against legal dealers; try to drum up anti-gun agenda and tell you what you can and can’t buy. I resolve to have better toys than they have. So far so good. Anyone have a “black helicopter” for sale? Molon Labe

They look at each and every mass shooting as a golden opportunity to infringe the life out of the 2nd amendment.

Yes and the liberal mainstream media causes these shootings in the first place. It is because of the fame that media gives these mass murderers that these mass murderers do it for fame. the media know this too but the media blame Rush the party etc. but it is they the media who are responsible.

Name the organizations pushing for more gun control.

Gun Owner Unfriendly at the Virginia Citizens Defense League. Bad guys include AARP, the national PTA, and a host of misguided businesses in Virginia.

National organizations with anti-gun policies at the National Rifle Association. Little explanation is given.

I would wager that this Homes character has never been at a range in his life.
I bet he is a “Computer Warrior”, I base this on the facts that..
1. His choice of weapons are classic game options, an “assault rifle” ( We all know it was just a semi auto), a shot gun, and a semi auto pistol.
2. No classically trained shooter would load himself down with a 100 rnd mag, when a few 30 clips are much easier to handle.(that sucker must have weighed a ton, but 100 rounders are "cool" in the games)
3. He picked a target rich environment, he didn't have to be a marksman.
If this clown didn't have access to guns he could have just as easy to fling a couple of Molotov cocktails.
And my last point is that IF there had been one or two CCW’s in that theater, the impact of a few .357/.45 rounds impacting that body armor would have knocked him around like a BB in a tin can.
IMHO

I know some but not all of them. If you are going to engage an enemy in a fight you need to gather as much intel as possible. First, you identify them and then you identify their sources of funding.
