OK, I don't see where this makes any sense.

I could be very mistaken on this but isn't the
Free State Project a seditious movement?
If so, the NRA would NOT stand for it.

that had him arrested for passing out flyers outside a gun show last Sunday.
The above statement is misleading. He was arrested for trespassing, not passing out papers. Only the police can arrest someone so he either broke the law or did not. Under state law, he had to get a permit to solicit on their convention grounds. Obviously he did not.

The problem with this idea is when you get rid of regulations against
drugs, gambling & prostitution you just invited all the liberals into your state
putting you right back where you started.

I happen to be pro-FSP, and still don't understand why this happened, particularly since many pro-2nd groups hand out literature at these events all the time. From various FSP forums, I don't think Condon quite knows who prompted this either.

Sierra Times, which is not a friend or supporter of the NRA, is leaving out half the story.
This guy was asked to leave and he didn't. He was arrested for tresspassing.
If fifty members of the MMM who were also there at the convention can follow simple instructions, why couldn't this bozo?

Director of Member Services for the rapidly growing Free State Project. Clearly a position that leaves him with too much time on his hands.
To: rvoitier
Why limit your politiical power to a single state that has two Senators and a handful of congressman?

It reminds me of a story about a small town in Alaska.
The citizens of the town said that every summer, wackos from the lower 48 come to their town trying to start some kind of political movements. She also said they get a lot of suicides from the newcomers.
She said the problem resolves itself when winter comes and the newcomers leave.

Do you not understand the benefits of small local unobtrusive government that doesn't try to run your life?
Or are you against FSP because they questioned your precious NRA?
BTW, I am now and have been a member of the NRA. I am not yet a member of FSP, although I do like the idea.

What is seditious about moving to a new place and registering to vote in local elections, and doing so?
To: Shooter 2.5
It's not so much limiting your power, but starting from the ground up. If you could get something like the FSP to actually work, it just might inspire others to stand up for their rights in their own states.

I am in TOTAL agreement. States with regulations against drugs, gambling & prostitution have those vices under control. Just think of DC. Their gun regulations have almost completely eliminated gun crime. In fact these kinds of laws are working so well that many are calling for a prohibition against another dangerous drug, alcohol.
If I had the power I would make this the quote of the day.
Best regards,

I'm not against the FSP. I think they're just limiting their power by their ideas.
It would be better if they took over controlling interest in the Washington Post instead of limiting themselves to two senators and a handful of congressman.
It's a shame the guy who was arrested didn't have the sense of the million morons group. I didn't hear of any of them getting arrested.
