You all know the stories that have come down through the years. The American Revolutionary War of 1775–1783 that as of a result America gained her independence.
And the writer could go on and on about the different wars that America has fought in first one war and another. For first one reason and then another. But all these wars could not have been won had it not been for GUNS and GOD. There has been first one Dumb person and then another. That has tried to take guns away from the American people first one way and then another. The world would like nothing better than to take the guns away from America including OBAMA. Notice the writer did not say President Obama. The writer did this on purpose. Cause the writer has no respect for anyone who does not stand up and be an American. It takes more to be an American than to be just born here or to be adopted by some family who happens to live in America. The writer does not care how you the perpetrator goes about trying to make America be another defenseless country so that the Germans, Soviet Union, China, Japan or any other country can just prance their selves in our country and do whatever they please to and with each of us. Our daughters would be at their disposal to do to them as they wish. Our Sons would become their property and there would not be a thing we could do about it.
And then to those people that would have us under there rule would dare any of us to do anything about it. And we as Americans would have these self-serving dumb people to thank for all this. And thank we sure would!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now the writer believes that if there is a time for every red blooded American that really stands up and says enough of all this, that time is past time. All this talk about other things that America had stood up against and the politicians have been and are slowly throwing all of our freedom (that our forefathers and others down through the years have fought for) out the window. The writer says its past time for America to stand up and take back what was and is being taken away from the American People. The writer and others of this great nation feel that all Americans need to band together and be one and fight and take America back.

Please do read the writings of those who formed the Constitution and learn it’s history. The Second Amendment is absolutely about individual rights, protection of those rights and defense, not the necessities of the State or the Revolutionary War. It’s why it’s in the Bill of Rights, and not the Articles which deal with the powers limits and responsibilities of the government.

The First and Second Amendments are commented on frequently by the founders as protections against oppression and tyranny of government. Which is pretty much the purpose of the Bill of Rights.

The Bill of Rights were introduced to the first Congress by James Madison on June 8, 1789. Amendments 1 through 10 were ratified by December 15, 1791. The war had ended in 1783.

An unarmed people depends on others to protect them, keep their safety, defend their rights. So what happens when those protectors are away, or are unable or worse unwilling.

The NRA is an organization that actually teaches respect for firearms, shooting, safety and sport as well as defense.

I’ve gotten far far less mailers from them than the local fast food places, realtors and stores.

Thanks for posting the NRA offer. I wholeheartedly agree with your stance to post freebies without regard to personal preferences. Those who wish you didn’t post this simply want to deny the choice to those who otherwise may have not seen it. Suppressing information is un-American, that’s how China and Iran operate.

I’ve been an NRA Life Member for over 30 years; if a member contacts them and asks not to receive solicitations, they will comply. I get maybe 3 to 5 mailings a year. No big deal.

For those who are interested, please check it out and consider becoming a regular member if you like what you see.

One of my mantras when posting a freebie is to keep my personal preferences out of it. Last fall, for example, I posted links to every Obama and McCain freebie I could find, despite my own clear political preference.

I’ve posted freebies from Peta, the ACLU, now the NRA, and countless other potentially polarizing organizations. Some I personally support, others I’m vehemouthly against, but the day I start censoring legitimate freebies and start discreetly pushing an agenda is the day I know it’s time to close shop. I’m here to post freebies and make weak jokes, not tell people who, what, or how to believe.

The reason I posted this freebie was not because it was just a simple membership, but because it included free stickers and decals, entrance to conferences, potential savings on hotels, and more.

Oh and to those who are opposed to this listing. Don’t get upset. We’re not trying to take away your right not to own firearms and neither is the NRA.
