Mark your calendars and make plans to be there!!!!!
The 2nd Annual Grass Roots Gun Owners Rights Press Conference & Rally will occur on April 24 in Harrisburg in the Capitol Rotunda.
(See the attached flyer for more details.)
The event will run from 10:00 am to 11:00 AM. After the press conference, we will be visiting legislators' offices.
High attendance will help to make a positive impression on press and
legislators. We ask attendees to be there by 9:30 am.
Pennsylvania legislators are being bombarded with demands for further
infringements on our rights. Philly politicians are desperate to find
scapegoats. Without scapegoats, people will find out their dirty secret:
Philly is experiencing a rise in violent crime because of failed social
policies, a bail bond system that encourages violent criminals to escape
justice and the early release of violent prisoners because of prison
overcrowding.
The Philly Caucus wants New Jersey style gun laws even though adjacent
Camden NJ has higher crime rates than Philly. The Philly Caucus wants
"gun-a-Month" gun rationing. Virginia and Maryland have "gun-a-month" and Richmond and Baltimore have higher violent crime rates than Philly. The Philly Caucus knows these facts because last year, the entire Pennsylvania House spent three days debating their gun control schemes and forced Philly legislators to listen to the facts. Facts wont change the minds of those who want scapegoats and the scapegoats they have chosen are the law abiding gun owners of Pennsylvania.
Last year Philadelphia city employees and Philly school children were bussed to Harrisburg to support the plan to scapegoat law abiding gun owners. If Philly is going to pay workers for the day, shouldn't they be working? Shouldn't the kids be in school? If courts order prisoner releases due to overcrowding in Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, why are violent prisoners released and non-violent prisoners kept behind bars? Why did so many observers report that uniformed Black Panthers seemed to be in charge of the busses from Philly? Could this be a clue to the problem?
See you in Harrisburg at the Capitol Rotunda, April 24 at 9:30 am.
