DiFi has made her move...check. Now it's our turn.
Part of the problem we have in defending Second Amendment rights in this country is in the intensity displayed on either side of the argument. We have to match their intensity. We play the game on defense, allowing the left to call for our murder, propose draconian bans on regular arms, and push for un-Constitutional remedies while we try to defend instead of matching their effort. This is how they keep creeping the ball toward their goal inch by inch as we compromise our milquetoast efforts with their ravenous zeal. NO MORE. I'm tired of being pushed and it's time to push back. The BLOOD OF OUR ANCESTORS DEMANDS IT.
Since Feinstein and Pelosi have laid down their agenda for gun control, we must also articulate plans and legislation that move the ball in our direction... back toward the true meaning of what a well regulated militia really is.
This means we should be looking at 1) rolling back gun laws that have failed, like the '94 assault weapons ban and the 1968 GCA 2) expanding CCW in every state and every locale 3)establishing better reciprocity between state for greater ease of personal firearm travel 4)educating the masses of the true meaning of the Second Amendment 5)actually calling forth the militia from time to time to establish lines of communication and protocols for its' use 6)looking at state laws that restrict law-abiding citizens of their rights. I was amazed to learn in my state I could not carry a loaded .22 in my car!!!
With this in mind, we should be establishing a series of steps to move toward a nation of responsible, armed citizens as was established 200 years ago.
Step One, to my mind, is to immediately declare the Gun Free School Zones Act a failure, and introduce legislation to repeal it.
Step Two is to pass a sense of the House resolution that acknowledges before the nation that the Second Amendment is NOT about hunting, or even home protection, but is the guarantee that the People will always be armed as protection against standing armies and tyrannical, criminal government.
Future steps will reveal themselves and should also be taken on a state by state basis, but should be just as bold, and shift the debate back into the center where it belongs...stop playing on THEIR side of the field.
With this in mind, I call for one or more Republican Congressmen or Senators to introduce the Repeal of the GFSZA and Purposes of the Second Amendment Act as soon as possible.
That's where we come in. Let's get on the phone's, and get these officials to act. Do you want to fight the socialists now, in the media, and on the phones, and in the halls of Congress, or do you want to fight them later in your front yard when they come to confiscate the very tools of your existence as free men?
Well, like most things, someone smarter than I has already thought of it and called for it. I agree with this approach. We need to take bold steps instead of play defense on their proposals. An earlier poster said to open up a second front, I am saying hit them behind their front line by attacking their base. First call for repeal of the GFSZA...yesterday.
So let the people show every one of them who really has the power. Let the boycotts begin. Stop buying. Stop contributing. Stop spending. Stop paying into the corrupt tax system. Arm yourselves. Start under-withholding all taxes from your pay (be sure to save it to pay later though). Be sure you have enough ammo. River City is just up the road. Tell all congress and senators they are dung-heels. Quietly defy everybody.

We need everyone to come to the party. This would be an excellent post there. Well done.

dont sweat the small stuff aka spelling and punctuation self appointed monitors.I miss spell stuf just to crank em up.
When they finish with guns they will go after sharp pointed knives, as in the U.K.
Thanks for posting the link. I do not know how to do or I would have, thanks...
Thanks. I will sign up and check it out. :)
Count me in.
At the local and state levels, we could promote anti-registration and confiscation laws. Arrest federal agents seeking to register or confiscate guns based on EOs or federal legislation would be arrested by local authorities.
It seems to indicate that even other Fed agencies consider the BATFE to be F Troop material.
I also found it interesting that things have not improved since the book was written in 1996, but gotten worse.
I’d suggest instead of “gunfree zone” it should be “unprotected zone, enter at your own risk”.

Great Plan overall, but the Republican Party is quadraplegic and absolutely gutless and just plain dumb! In the firm control of elites, it simply “cannot” do what you wish (above statement). It is simply time to circumvent them and form a third party. Then, those in the Republican Party that care to, and have the spine to, can join in each particular piece of legislation. Someday too, when the Democratic party implodes, a new third party can pick up a few votes there too.
I have been writing and speaking with my Congressional reps for years on this very same subject. I love the idea of a resolution that would destroy the media meme of 'the 2nd Amendment is all about hunting'.

Here is a suggestion for a quick and real simple thing to do, just ONE WORD, that could be used EVERYWHERE - twitter, FB, all website blogs, et al - whenever the subject arises.
Just get the meaning of it well known, and then using the ONE WORD will say it all - whenever and wherever it is used. haha #switzerland

(or: we want SWITZERLAND , or DO IT LIKE SWITZERLAND , or SWITZERLAND DOES IT RIGHT , etc
We must go on offense. Step one as you have stated is to STOP perpetuating this nonsense that the Second amendment is about hunting or personal protection. It's about protection from GOVERNMENT!
The reason we need assault rifles and military weapons is to protect ourselves from government. When governments come for your liberty they will not bring a revolver, they will bring a machine gun.
Move the ball forward. Demand repeal of the the GCA and the NFA. All federal gun control laws and BATFE rules are unconstitutional.
I just want to cringe every time I hear someone on our side say we need ARs for personal protection and competition. Horse Hockey! We need them to protect us from government and they need to be M-16s not ARs.
I’d like to know how many people have been arrested for violating “Gun Free Zones”
Surely they have those stats.
