Gun-Grabbers

The Moms Demand Action radicals at a rally today at the Minnesota State Legislature came out and accused gun lovers and 2A supporters of being white supremacists, racists promoting white nationalism.

These people can never argue principles and defense of liberty: they always call conservatives names, and accuse us of being evil and bigoted, whereas they are noble, pure, kindly and for common sense gun control.

Gun gun grows the government and the police state. That is all that it accomplishes.

NRA Controversy

Dear Wayne LaPierre:                                                    4/28/19

I am a proud, no-compromise member and generous, loyal supporter of of the NRA, AFC and MGR. AFC and MGR, both of which heroically, consistently, patriotically and aggressively are hammering at state legislators, Congress, the public and the NRA and all weak pro-compromise, "nice" gun lobby groups willing to cut deals to infringe on our right to keep and bear arms as individuals and as unofficial members of a citizen militia.

It seems incontrovertible that you and Chris Cox are appeasing the Left and the gun-grabbers with a decades old tradition of talking tough but cutting deals slowly eroding our gun rights and depriving us of infringed upon gun freedoms.Your latest support for red flags gun legislation that Graham, Rubio are pushing and other is pure treachery, and pure betrayal of gun-lovers.

At the federal level and at the state level, thousands of conservative Democrats, RINO Republicans and conservative politicians (the latter actually are for a pro-gun program, and vote against the gun-grabbers) are graded high by you regardless of how they vote. For example Graham and Rubio have A ratings with the NRA despite bringing forth ERPO legislation to take away guns without gun owner due process without their conviction for a crime. Your federal support for this crap gives gun-grabbers an open gate to march through, and then on a state level grab guns from all kinds of sub-groups in the name of safety and reasonable gun control legislation.

Wayne, you ran Oliver North out, and you circled the wagons and stayed in power. Okay, know that I will keep my basic membership with the NRA but no money until you apologize for being a compromiser and make the following reforms. Stay in power and get your 6 million dollars a year in salary, but do your job, or we grassroots citizens and gun owners will desert you permanently because you have betrayed our trust and generous donating.

This is what I demand:
1. Apologize to the members, the public and gun owners everywhere for being weak on disallowing any compromise on any gun-grabbing anywhere on any level of government. If you would accept coaching from AFC, you would restore the faith of the members and the public. With your great connections, skill, size and budget, with a no-compromise stance, you could save gun rights in America from the fascist Left out to disarm the public as they conspire like the Nazis to disarm the public before they take over America with their hard tyranny, a one-party socialist dictatorship, and that is true, sole, final solution and objective that they work tirelessly to push upon the American people. Your inside-the-Beltway, swamp-dwelling, cover provided for gun-grabbers of all shapes and sizes is pure treason, as they point to your A-ratings, your sponsorship, your writing gun-grabbing bills, will lead to a disarmed public, a cowed public, with guns confiscated with only federal and local police with guns. If you are not alarmed and scared as I am, either you are complacent and corrupt or you just want to make more money and just allow the Leftist drift of our civil society to head right for Ameritopia and socialist despotism.
2. With your new no-compromise stance on gun-control, you appoint or elect Aaron Dorr from AFC to replace Ollie North as President of the NRA.
3. You immediately and openly and sincerely work with AFC, MGR and all other gun rights groups so all are on the same page with an absolutely binding no compromise stance on any gun control legislation anywhere.
4. You work with and through lobbyists if you want to but too often lobbyists are coopted by corrupt, sleazy politicians on every level of government, and become part of the gun-grabbing movement providing cover for sell-out compromiser. No more Judases, no more. Let every lobbyist obey or be fired that all gun rights organizations will on every federal and state level through out the nation come with an annual gun-rights legislative program to be pushed everywhere, even in Illinois, that moves gun rights forward. All parties are to stay on offense everywhere, whether in legislative or Congressional majority or minority status, always forcing litmus test votes to run on and force politicians to run on, openly declaring by action how they really think and believe. On defense, you work with all gun-rights groups everywhere to fight and vote fiercely against any kind of gun-grabbing legislation anywhere. No compromise, ever! Loud and proud and with God, the Bible, our guns and our beloved guns and the Left can go to Cuba if they cannot stand it.
5. You must work with gun rights groups to rate every politician and every candidate for every office on every level of government through out the land. If a candidate refuses to fill out the gun-rights questionnaire, they automatically have an F-rating with no support, no citizen votes, no endorsement and no money for their campaign. If a candidate does not vote for every gun-rights bill and against every gun-grabbing bill every time, they get a F-rating with all the opposition that gun rights groups can muster. The leaders of AFC and MGR have taught me that we must not be polite to those that betray our natural rights, our unalienable liberties and our right to bear arms. Whether the President, Congress, pastors, judges, commentators, men, women, politicians on any level, Republican, Democrat, Independent or Libertarian talk, act, vote and bring legislation that provides absolute protection and extension of gun rights, we will treat them with courtesy, respect, praise and support. When friend or foe strays or openly is for gun-grabbing, as you in the NRA have been doing for too long and with horrible red flags legislation right now, we will be loud, critical, insulting (sorry), protesting, and fighting against all detractors with everything we legally can muster. Political correctness and Minnesota nice, be damned, we patriots must defend our right to bear arms against the totalitarian Left so that we can make America great again and restore the constitutional republic with its lovely and incomparable Bill Of Rights.
6. Aaron Dorr of AFC correctly warns that the might NRA may cost us dearly in 2020 or beyond with their sleeping with the enemy, the gun-grabbers, while bragging about how tough you are while raking in the dough and doing terrible damage to gun rights.

Your siding with gun-grabbers, your swamp-dwelling misinforming President Trump about the dangers of red flags gun legislation may cost Trump his reelection in 2020 as gun owners desert him or do not vote because he did not veto ERPO fascist legislation in Washington.

Your siding with gun-grabbers allows the gun-haters on the Left to come further and further towards infringing upon our 2A rights until President Kamala Harris issues an executive order in 2023 to confiscate all privately owned guns from citizens. When those of us that protest take up arms in revolt, she will then declare a state of emergency and assume dictatorial powers, temporarily only of course (in reality the change will be to Communist thuggery forever), and then she can use federal police agencies, nationalize all local police agencies, and call out to Army to put down the insurrection. This is the nightmare future that the NRA may well usher in.

Appoint Him

Appoint Mark Levin special prosecutor to nail these illegal coup plotters and administrators, conspiring to take Trump out.

Stay Alert, Stay Active

Anyone, once successful and an insider lobbyist, could compromise and sell out and join the swamp, betraying voters and citizens. To keep a grassroots lobby honest, it is not up to the Dorrs so much as it is up to the grassroots members. You the citizen must be vigilant always, and that is the price of liberty. Stay alert, stay aggressive and keep us always armed and always free, no compromise.

My Signed Open Letter To The President from AFC

Dear Mr. President:

On behalf of over a million gun owners who are represented by the state level gun rights organizations that have signed this open letter, we are writing to urge you to publicly oppose ‘Red Flag Gun Seizure’ legislation and to veto the bill should it land on your desk.
This legislation was heard in the Judiciary Committee on Tuesday, March 26 and, based on the comments from lawmakers on both sides of the partisan aisle, it seems likely to move forward at a rapid pace.
While the National Rifle Association (NRA) is urging you and Congress to advance this legislation, we are writing to let you know that they are wrong, and that they are giving you bad political advice.
The truth is that there is an open revolt underway right now, with grassroots gun owners leaving the NRA in droves, furious with this latest betrayal. You can see this for yourself by spending five minutes on their social media platforms.
These gun owners consider passage of ‘Red Flag Gun Seizure’ legislation as an unforgivable political sin, and they are rightfully angry at organizations and lawmakers who are pushing for it.
There are several reasons why we are urging you to publicly oppose this legislation. Please allow us to briefly state our objections to this bill.
First, this bill destroys the idea of ‘innocent until proven guilty’ by allowing someone’s Second Amendment right to be suspended and their firearms confiscated BEFORE they have been convicted in a court of law for a criminal offense!
The concept of innocent until proven guilty is sacrosanct in American jurisprudence. Allowing this bill to become law would upend that, and violate the 5th, 6th, and 14th Amendments in part or
in whole.
Second, the bill allows the states to utilize ex-parte hearings as a part of the process. As you undoubtedly know, this means that the gun owner in question would have no idea that his Second Amendment rights are on the line until the police are at his home with an order to confiscate his firearms.
This means that a gun owner would not be able to confront witnesses, examine the evidence brought against him, have the benefit of counsel present or any of the other due process protections that he is entitled to. Allowing this bill to become law would violate the 5th and 6th Amendments in part or in whole and would set a terrible precedent.
Third, this bill is clearly designed to be rapidly expanded to allow an ever growing number of people to petition the court to remove a person’s firearms. One of the witnesses in the hearing yesterday was already urging Congress to expand the list of people who can file these petitions to include all mental health staffers.
Another witness from yesterday’s hearing, Kimberly Wyatt, is actively pushing for legislation in Washington State to allow a ‘Red Flag Gun Seizure’ order to be issued against minor children. Once the minor is subject to the seizure order, the police would disarm the minor’s parents! This bill would literally require a parent to surrender their firearms (while facing no charges) or be forced to have their children live elsewhere.
For these reasons, we would urge you to publicly oppose this bill.
America sat back and watched in disgust last fall as your Supreme Court nominee, Brett Kavanaugh, was maligned and falsely accused of rampant sexual impropriety. Thanks to his ability to recall dates and facts, legal representation, and the help of the FBI who could run an around-the-clock investigation into these claims, these allegations were seen for being the lies that they were.
If ‘Red Flag Gun Seizure’ legislation passes, every gun owner in America would be vulnerable to losing a Constitutionally guaranteed right in the same manner! Only instead of their rights being attacked in public for all the world to see, as was the case for Justice Kavanaugh, a gun owner’s freedoms would be attacked in secret court proceedings that the gun owner would know nothing about.
As someone who has been repeatedly maligned by the press and many others, you know just how dangerous these allegations can be. Please don’t allow gun owners to be subjected to losing their freedoms and their firearms in this manner, especially as they have never been convicted in court of a crime.
Your mention of a veto on H.R. 8 has done much to galvanize Senate Republicans who are feeling heat from all sides to take action on that bill now that the House of Representatives passed it. We would ask that you do the same thing regarding S. 7, or any similar legislation.
Signatories:

Aaron Dorr, Executive Director, Iowa Gun Owners
Christopher Dorr, Executive Director, Ohio Gun Owners
Patrick Parsons, Executive Director, Georgia Gun Owners
Benjamin Dorr, Executive Director, Minnesota Gun Rights
Alexandra Salsman, Political Director, Missouri Firearms Coalition
David Ball, President, Wyoming Gun Owners
Jason Storms, Chairman, Wisconsin Firearms Coalition
Thomas Walker, Chairman, North Carolina Firearms Coalition
Greg Pruett, President, Idaho Second Amendment Alliance
Greg Pruett, Political Director, Washington Gun Rights

Do They?

A gun owner posted the question that the NRA may be compromising and sold out as to allowing gun-grabbing because someone has something on them. That could well be true, but the bottom line is one cannot give in to blackmail, or allow groups, the government or evil people to own one. One must rebel, be honest and outspoken, and allow them to do their worst so one can remain free, honest and uncorrupted.

Here was my response: "Maybe they do, but a man of courage and principle will tell his blackmailer, that the past be damned, hurt me if you can, I am now taking the high road and standing for liberty, rights and limited government."

The Truth

A gun lover posted yesterday that our right to keep and bear arms is a natural right given to us by God, not by the Founding Fathers and not by any legislators, and they cannot under natural law, under the Constitution, or legally by any federal or state statue infringer upon our right to bear arms.

Some minor infringement like not owning RPZS, a nuclear weapon, or grenades by be constitutional, but no infringement beyond that. All should own a AK47 if they want to, and are not a felon, and are not criminally insane.
