Best pro 2A argument yet...

Compiled by and signed by members of the Special Forces community...A very solid argument.

Great read! Thanks for posting it JP!

Unfortunately, the very reason that you and I have extra respect for the folks that signed this letter, is why too many of the liberal general public discount them as a bunch of gun happy, military rednecks.

Further irony is the fact that the vast majority of the liberals that discount the military as such people wouldn't make a pimple on one of these Special Forces Soldiers asses.

Oh no, but black guns are evil so they are bad!

Solution!



Now the rifle is no longer evil, but cute.

Coffee shop liberals are happy.

"So why should non-gun owners, a majority of Americans, care about maintaining the 2nd Amendment right for citizens to bear arms of any kind? The answer is “The Battle of Athens, TN”. The Cantrell family had controlled the economy and politics of McMinn County, Tennessee since the 1930s. Paul Cantrell had been Sheriff from 1936 -1940 and in 1942 was elected to the State Senate. His chief deputy, Paul Mansfield, was subsequently elected to two terms as Sheriff. In 1946 returning WWII veterans put up a popular candidate for Sheriff. On August 1 Sheriff Mansfield and 200 “deputies” stormed the post office polling place to take control of the ballot boxes wounding an objecting observer in the process. The veterans bearing military style weapons, laid siege to the Sheriff’s office demanding return of the ballot boxes for public counting of the votes as prescribed in Tennessee law. After exchange of gun fire and blowing open the locked doors, the veterans secured the ballot boxes thereby protecting the integrity of the election. And this is precisely why all Americans should be concerned about protecting all of our right to keep and bear arms as guaranteed by the Second Amendment!"
