The NRA Convention is in Louisville today through Sunday. Here is one from the late Charlton Heston, past President of the NRA:

...I simply cannot stand by and watch a right guaranteed by the Constitution of the United States come under attack from those who either can't understand it, don't like the sound of it, or find themselves too philosophically squeamish to see why it remains the first among equals: Because it is the right we turn to when all else fails. That's why the Second Amendment is America's first freedom... - Charlton Heston


Times for gun owners are going to get tough after the next elections. The NRA does more to protect the rights of ALL gun owners than any other organization. If you're not a member, you should give serious consideration to joining. Your guns may depend on it!
