Where the #*&(#@$) is the NRA???
For the first time in 50 years a genuine 2nd Ammendment supporter is running for President and the NRA is DEAD SILENT!!!
The NRA ought to be screaming Ron Paul's name at the top of their lungs and putting every dollar they can muster behind him. WHERE ARE THEY???
If you are a member, an ex-member or thinking of becoming a member, call or email the NRA immediately and tell them they need to get behind Ron Paul now.
As for me, the NRA will never see another dollar from me if they don't back him now, because not doing so is proof positive I can't trust them to defend the 2nd Ammendment or any other part of the Constitution.

My understanding is they are controlled opposition and don't give their members the full story anyway. Probably smart to pull your support of them now, either way.

The NRA is part of the "controlled opposition." Try Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership http://jpfo.org/ or Gun Owners of America http://gunowners.org/.

Gun Owners of America is probably a better option. Either way, I'm frankly surprised that there's not much mention of RP on any of the pro 2nd amendment sites.

Also, it seems like the usual voices such as John Lott (http://johnrlott.tripod.com/) and Liberty Zone (http://www.libertyzone.blogspot.com/), etc. are pushing for Fred Thompson. Urghh.

I try "educating" them on RP's flawless 2nd amendment voting record by posting appropriate comments in appropriate blog entries whenever possible in the hope that some of their regular readers will latch on.

Also, I don't really know of any shooting related forums per se except perhaps http://opencarry.mywowbb.com/ - I've tried spreading the word there and found some other RP supporters in there. However, there's still a lot of gun owners who are definitely falling for the "Fred Thompson is our saviour" bullshit. They just need educating some more.

I've emailed. Short, to the point, and polite.

An online radio show was posted here a couple of weeks ago, that was completely dedicated to Ron Paul and gun rights.

i hope there is nowhere to vote for a day or two. i want more time now to tell people about RP. if you order anything on the internet or telephone, sometimes you can fit in a small conversation about the presidential candidates. careful not to overdo, though, as their calls are sometimes monitored.

you are correct about the NRA, but it will not hurt to tell them anyway. there are lots of gun clubs and shooting competitions.

Whenever I see Dr. Paul mentioned on any gun sites I go to, they say he's just a loon and then go preaching about Fred Thompson no matter what is said about Thompson's lack of being truly conservative.

The NRA will NOT endorse Ron Paul. I really wish they would but they will not. The NRA has really gone downhill in the past decade. They have a conservative agenda and it does not include "liberal" thinking persons. I do not recommend joining the NRA or you will be bombarded with unrelenting spam to the "n"th degree. However, I do recommend exercising your 2nd amendment right. I will not be renewing my membership out of disgust for their tyrannical style adminsitration. What they do to their own members is disgusting.

Let me know what gun sites. The more people that go there and politely "educate" them that they only think he's a loon because Rupert Murdoch says so the better.

Ron Paul endorses Gun Owners of America so maybe that's why NRA doesn't promote him or the "competition?"

For you sheepdogs who own guns, be sure to check out this new book:

"Constitutional Homeland Security: A Call for Americans to Revitalize the Militia of the Several States. Volume I, The Nation in Arms" [UNABRIDGED] (Paperback)
by Edwin Vieira (Author)

Book Description

"Homeland security" is the most serious issue challenging Americans today. How they deal with this problem will determine whether the United States will preserve individual liberty and economic prosperity, or degenerate into a centralized bureaucratic police state. This book explains why "the Militia of the several States" are the only establishments the Constitution explicitly empowers to provide the crucial elements of homeland security. And it describes the practical steps Americans should take to revitalize the constitutional Militia in each of the States.

Customer Review

Required reading for EVERY American , May 29, 2007
By D. M. Zuniga (Laredo, Texas) - See all my reviews

"Presently, our republic is seething with citizen discontent on a range of important issues: the burgeoning police state under a proto-fascist "homeland security" banner...the cultural and economic threat of unchecked Mexican immigration...the increasing strictures on our God-given right (reiterated by the Second Amendment)...the hokey "War on Terror".

How in the world can the citizens of these 50 sovereign States, return to the liberty and self-government that we supposedly assured ourselves when "We the People" assented to the U.S. Constitution as our means of limiting the Leviathan State?

In this trenchant little guidebook for American citizens, constitutional scholar Dr. Edwin Vieira, Jr leads us back to the rule of law, step by constitutional step! What an erudite, plain-speaking, and eminently "do-able" plan the author presents!

This is no guidebook for rifle-toting "Montana Freemen" nut-cases; it is a measured, historically documented plan of action for truly reclaiming our liberty and our "homeland security", one neighborhood at a time, in concert with local "first responders" (police, fire dept, EMS, et al) but entirely on a volunteer basis: orderly, law-abiding, serious-minded citizenship, just as our colonial-era forefathers -- and the framers of the Constitution -- intended!

After you read this book (believe me, you'll be full of hope and ready to say, "Let's Roll!") just imagine the 4th of July, 2010...in 535 American towns and cities, holding an "AMERICA AGAIN!" rally, to institute the "Citizens' Homeland Security Associations" that Dr. Vieira introduces in this masterful book! I tell you, never in my life have I had such hope in the future of this republic -- if only people will read such books as this one, and actually take them to heart.

Are you sick of the repetitive news cycles and foreign wars? Tired of being told that America is inexorably becoming a police state, or will soon be overrun by illegal immigrants?

Get this book TODAY; you'll finish the last page with more hope than you've had for years."

Note: Many of these forums already have a Ron Paul presence but spamming won’t go over well. It’s probably not a good idea to join and just talk about Ron Paul if you don’t know anything about guns.
