    I appauld your attitude and effort. But basically you are wasting your time here. Keep in mind there about 84 million gun owners in America. But only about 10% (8 million or less) of those gun owners value their rights enough to spend any time, money (a lousey $20.00 for GOA) money or effort to help or to join ANY of the few national gun rights organizations.

    So you can rest assured that the vast majority of your fellow gun owners right here on GB.com do little or nothing to help with gun rights. Except buy guns, ammo, and run their mouth against people who do try and help with gun rights. And usually the ones who are the loudest about crictizing people who do help (like the NRA) are the ones who really, really do nothing.

    Yep, you got that right. But they will certainly blame the NRA, GOA and other organizations when and if they were to lose their gun rigths. [:0][:0]

    I like how this "new" group has a name that is easy to comprehend their goals and motive.

    The NRA is like a band-aid on a rattlesnake bite...

    My money is on new groups like this or www.appleseedinfo.org who instead of giving money to politicians through lobbying like the NRA, are actually spending time training New shooters with a Proper mindset.

    We need more than just a political machine.

    Who trains the militia today? Certainly isn't the states.
    Good for Fred, proud to have him as a patriot.
