WhiteHouse.gov Petition: Establish gun-free zone around pResident, send Secret Service home
WhiteHouse.go ^ | 23 December 2012

Posted on 12/23/2012 7:04:34 PM PST by E. Pluribus Unum

Only 23 signatures. If we could get 25,000 it would be a huge embarrassment for the pResident.

For good reason

Do we want to be on that list?

If you're not on one yet it's a good place to start. This is taking the Second Amendment argument to another level. This is bringing the rules in their game of change, where they keep their guns and preach us out of ours, to light.

This is part of the fight to restore Constitutional balance. This is an opportunity to re-establish a sense of doing something positive instead of just complaining. This is the time to start acting like we deserve the freedom and liberty entrusted to US by those Founders so venerated and quoted on this site.

We have to start acting like Americans sometime, why not now when it can be done in a peaceful manner?

“mind” = “mine”. Should have proofread a bit better.

I do believe that petition was pulled. Nice try, though.

I think you missed my point or else your reply to me is not very clear or your reasoning isn’t. I don’t know that “every gun free zone is definitely free of guns” and I don’t think anyone else does either unless every inch of the “zone” were searched by trained folks. Would everyone “immediately give up [their] every gun”? I’ve read that “mass killings are done in gun free zones but not in gun areas” but this seems to me to be quite easy to understand and accept, assuming it is in fact a true statement. I don’t know that it is true.

Sorry, I should have put a big “sarcastic” on that post. Of course, gun free zones are NOT free of bad guy guns.

It is true that except in the shooting of Gabby Gifford, every mass killing was done in a restrictive gun area.

Glad to see that. Thanks. The links I used to that site kept telling me I already signed it. I couldn’t find it amongst the list of petitions provided when I started looking for it.

Best post of the thread.

Everyone on freerepublic is already on a "list".

I am on so many, I don't bother to keep track.
