If there was a peaceful demonstration around the White House the mainstream media would only show videos of the few idiots in the crowd saying and doing stupid things and the media would portray everyone at the demonstration as a bunch of crazy gun nuts who are just like the idiots in the video...the truth is not in alignment with their agenda.
The power hungry tyrants in Washington only care about what they want and they are going to force it on the citizens. The tyrants are going to push too far and too hard and before they know it, they are going to force this country into an uncivil war.

When do we leave? If congress doesn't get common sense that gun show loopholes are really private seller loopholes, that mag caps and AWB's are really infringements on 2A that don't protect anyone; not that government has a better track record on protecting anyone than the rest of us have protecting ourselves - especially with government out of the way; then it's time to deliver the message personally. If cards and letters don't make clear clear, then here, here.
Americans understood the right of self-preservation as permitting a citizen to repel force by force
when the intervention of society... may be too late to prevent an injury.

Here's an important concept to always remember; much smaller groups than gun owners have been able to institute social and legal changes throughout the history of our nation. And, we already have a longstanding Constitutional amendment in our favor.
Look at how many states have enacted concealed carry laws over the last 20 years or so. Then there's restaurant carry, State and National park carry, and the list goes on. Trust me, it didn't take three million people to get those changes made.
What's more, I don't buy the "three million" number anyway...... I think it's a lot more.

So how about it NRA. Will you step up the game and go all in? Organize a national event on the Capital and call for NRA members to attend. Schedule buses from major communities so members can attend in force. It is time for the NRA to lead, let's have a rally of several million members on the Capital. Make the point peacefully, but clearly, SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED!

I didnt realize there was stock available for firearms companies. I know H&K does not allow sharing.

Get as close to a quote as I can , but it was ...... "We don't understand why people are still buying them when they know we want to ban them" .
The more I think about that, makes me believe, they really ... really.... 1) are bothered by the buying, etc going on, and 2) cannot comprehend how serious people take it, nor that anyone would fight for it, and expect everyone to "just accept it" and roll over and play dead. They cannot fathom this way of "thinking" in their minds.
"We don't understand why people are still buying them when they know we want to ban them" ...Seriously, what did they think would happen? You have to have your head stuck really deep in the sand (or somewhere else) to not understand why firearms sales in Dec 2012 were unprecedented.
Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

I would go. Couldn't you imagine that may gun owners in Washington all at once. It would paralize DC. I'm not worried about the left wingers. What are they gonna do, hit me with their bong.
Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.

Exactly! A peaceful and orderly demonstration of the real power in America. Shut down the capital by shear numbers. No way for them to ignore that kind of response.
