The first one that comes to mind is the senior citizen in the Internet cafe. http://www.gunsandammo.com/2012/07/18/senior-citizen-shoots-armed-robbers-at-internet-cafe/

How about a list of successful defensive gun situations to reference?

Great letter Vlad. I'm working in one of my own. I think if we really get involved we can make a change. Let's hope these politicians take the time to read them and take them serious. Again great job bro.

On their 14.5 uppers they do pin brakes for additional cost. I think you still have to remove the bayo lug by yourself unless you get an upper with no bayo lug.

Here's a company that supports the second amendment! From their Facebook page: "Since there seems to be a number of fair weather venders profiting in the firearms industry, lets make it clear of our stance on the 2nd Amendment. "A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." The founding fathers made the right to keep and bear arms second only to the freedom of speech in the Bill of Rights. Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, George Mason, Samuel Adams and so many others, labored tirelessly to create a new nation with laws free from the tyranny of the old country. A place where the government would represent the people, not repress them. As Americans, we have the luxury of living in a developed society where we can develop ourselves through education and critical debate. We have a responsibility to question ideas and confront issues that we have a stake in as citizens of this nation, be that the rights of yourselves or the rights of others when threatened by the state. Firearms are, first and foremost, a tool to secure your life and the lives of others, against any aggressor. The people at Bravo Company USA and BCM support responsible civilians having access to the same tools of Law Enforcement to affect the same ends. Securing and defending ourselves, our loved ones and innocent people if the situation arises."

I know they will try Ray but if we're divided it's just going to make it easier for them to succeed

Never heard anyone say anything about an ammo ban...as for the AWB the only reason I think some would support it is because life for us would essentially not change much. Either way I think we need to come together

How about Assault Rifle Ale...wait the antis would probably try to ban you from making it

I've never been a member of the NRA but I just joined. I've always felt that they don't help NJ but now I feel how they can help us all.

Now's really the time for us to come together and not point fingers at our brothers and call each other names like dopes. We need every gun owner to fight with each other not against each other.

Great statement made...and about time...shared it on my Facebook page...it's amazing the antis didn't wait for the mourning to be done or for facts to come in, they just jumped on an agenda. Also pretty close to what i said they should write haha

Excellent post.

That one had a 2-3 day head start. Many gun owners seem defeatist and won't take the time to sign it. Out of the ones that do how many forwarded it to friends and family or shared on facebook?

This is great but is missing a lot of "F"s haha...I may share this on facebook to educate some people

and it begins...nothing like price gouging

Yeah I know but having an armed person in a place that are many times "gun free" zones helped

Imagine that... http://www.theblaze.com/stories/man-attempts-to-open-fire-on-crowd-at-movie-theater-armed-off-duty-sheriffs-deputy-drops-him-with-one-bullet/

I understand this but almost every single media outlet has someone from the anti-gun crowd and then they say the reached out to the NRA with no response. Maybe an NRA representative should have a statement like "we'll discuss our stance on the issue when we're done mourning the tragic loss of life, we don't feel at this time that we need to discuss an issue when the funerals of the beautiful innocent children haven't even happened". That'll make it look like their sensitive to the tragedy as well as willing to talk. Complete silence makes them look bad IMHO.

The lack of a response by the NRA is really going to hurt the cause.

The media in general makes me sick. News crews camped outside funerals for ratings. Let these people mourn damn it.

I like asking people to define assault rifle.

Over 25,000 signatures. Continue sharing this with people.

Also be sure to share this on Facebook and other social media...the more people that see it the more that will sign

Signed Also consider this one Arming Teachers

As a teacher I'm all for having staff ccwing. We have two months off in the summer where we could be trained by and with police officers. We could be subject to qualifications the same way. I'd gladly volunteer my time if they provided the training. We need to accept the fact that crazy people are going to do crazy things. Why sit back and wait for the next shooting? One armed staff member could change the outcome entirely. People shoot up schools because they know they'll have 5-10 minutes before police respond. There could be a lot of damage done in that time. This morning I walked into my principals office and volunteered to spearhead a security committee that can look at better securing the building. We don't always see eye to eye but she was all for it. Can't wait to get to work on it actually. We need to make safer more secure schools.
