    I belonged to a rights organization in Indiana several years ago. I sat on the board of directors for two years. At the time there were approximately 30,000 members in Indiana. At any given time 1/2% of the members stood up for their rights. I can tell you it will take far more than 1/2% of gun owners to stand up for their rights based on recent events. If your on this forum you have the ability to email and write letters to your political leaders in office. Don"t take your rights for granted!

    I realize how elementary it sounds. But most people take their rights for granted. This time it will take more than 1/2% of the gun owners to stand up for their.

    Thanks for the tip. I never would have thought of that.:)

    Maybe you've missed the decent number of members here that would be encourage "common sense gun control" because they don't see a legal purpose to own firearms like AR15s, AK47s, or the few that said pretty much said more than pump shotguns/bolt rifles/revolvers could be banned and they wouldn't care. This would include the evil semi auto .22 lrs. Some people simply own firearms because it is just a hobby and don't really care too much about the rights side of it.

    The magenta in the post made me miss quite a bit as it was kind of blinding due to my sinus headache. It just seemed a little odd to post something intended to be sarcasm in a one liner when a decent number of people around here honestly don't care if it doesn't affect them.

    The only way to lose your rights is to give them away to the Socialist Party (formally known as Democrates).

    They did it to the people of England. They did it to the people of Austrailia and they've done it to the EU people too.

    We must not give our rights away. What are you ready to do?

    Say what? I don't know much about England or the EU but the Australian Democrats or pretty much center politically and have very little power. They've not held a House of Representatives seat and rarely held more than 2 Senate seats in each state. The leading parties are the Liberal Party (urban-based) and the National Party (rural-based).

    Someone who knows the political system should create a thread with emails and such to make it easier.

    I honestly wouldn't know where to start. I assume our congress and senate

    We won't lose our gun rights because some of want to own semi-autos, but rather because some of us don't own them, and are willing to throw the rest of us under the bus, so they can keep on playing with their leverguns or whatever politically-correct toys they enjoy.
