WELCOME to All Supporters of the 2nd Amendment, Shooting and Firearms Enthusiasts!

This Blog Site is dedicated to those that have served our great country and to my fallen comrades in the Marine Corps: Cpl. John Alfonzo, LCpl. Johnson, Sgt. Zinser and others who tragically perished along with 16 other Marines on March, 22nd 1989  when their  Sea Stallion CH-53D helicopter crashed near P’ohang, South Korea. And to Earl Andersen, call sign: “EDGE” a fellow 1986 Citadel graduate who was killed while piloting his Harrier AV-8B over the South China Sea on January 26th, 1990.  He died while on a training flight from Kadena Air Base on Okinawa to Osan Air Base in South Korea. His AV-8B Harrier fell from 35,800 feet, sliced through a cloud bank and disappeared into the water. Neither the aircraft nor his body was ever found.

In addition to those above, tragically on April 23,  2012 my son “Dub” as we affectionately called him went to be with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  So now along with those who I knew and served with in the Marine Corps my son’s name is added to the honor roll of those who have inspired me to fight on for our 2nd Amendment Rights.  God Bless America!  God Bless the United States Marine Corps!  God Bless “Dub”!  and God Bless the 2nd Amendment!

I love you son, I miss you and I will see you again!

The bald eagle was chosen June 20, 1782 as the emblem of the United States of America, because of its long life, great strength and majestic looks, and also because it was then believed to exist only on this continent.  The Eagle became the National emblem in 1782 when the great seal of the United States was adopted. The Great Seal shows a wide-spread eagle, faced front, having on his breast a shield with thirteen perpendicular red and white stripes, surmounted by a blue field with the same number of stars. In his right talon the eagle holds an olive branch, in his left a bundle of thirteen arrows, and in his beak he carries a scroll inscribed with the motto: “E Pluribus Unum”…which is Latin for “Out of Many, One” attributed to Thomas Jefferson.

By now you know I am a HUGE advocate, proponent and supporter of the 2nd Amendment and the right that it affords each and every American Citizen.  I will do everything in my power and sphere of influence to educate, encourage and empower any and all gun owners to join the National Rifle Association and  similar organizations and support our 2nd Amendment right.

What part of “Shall NOT be Infringed” do so many people, state and local governments NOT understand?

27 words….THAT’s IT!  So brilliant in it’s SIMPLICITY, so POWERFUL that it says so much with so little.

“A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”

    Great blog! Was just looking through the wordpress political blog newsfeed and found y’all! I support the 2nd amendment and I’m proud of it! Will be posting a 2nd amendment post soon on my blog. jthmishmash.com

  13. Nice blog. I look forward to visiting often.

    Semper Fidelis.

  14. Van Smith says:

    It seems to me that the 2nd amendment says ‘congress shall NOT infringe.’ It seems to me to be one of the ‘Bill of Rights.’ It is NOT a privilege the government may or may not give. It seems to me the Patriots (revolutionaries) are now in the process of supressing the counter-revolutionaries by trying to regulate access for the counter-revolutionaries. It seems to me that Justice is political.
    Since Justice is political then Crime is political. The right to bear arms means the right to oppose an unjust government NOT to protect oneself and family. It was to maintain a free society free of an oppressive government.

      Hello, my name is Torrey and I wanted to share this brand new grassroots fictional short film that heavily discusses gun rights & the 2nd Amendment, GMO food dangers as well as many other timely topics that affect our modern American families. The film is called “The Theorist” & it educates while it entertains. It was filmed & edited over a 90 day period in accordance with the “Operation Paul Revere” film contest. We are asking for people to share this video with their contacts. Thank you for your review ! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qjD98Sqdr2c

  15. Emmie Verd says:

    I am really impressed with your writing skills and also with the layout on your blog. Is this a paid theme or did you modify it yourself? Anyway keep up the nice quality writing, it is rare to see a nice blog like this one today..

  16. Matthew says:

    Please help me stop the UN Gun Control Treaty. Sign the petition at http://wh.gov/XiGU . Thank you for keeping our gun rights safe and America strong.
    Thank you for your time,
    Matthew

  17. Just found the blog. Will be stopping by, perhaps to help some how.
    Best wishes.

  18. https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/repeal-unconstitutional-gun-laws/2b6t00rL

    The one link above is expired. Please do the one I just posted. We have 25 days left, and we’re at about 7300 now. Pass the link on. I don’t think a petition is going to help much, but it IS as much our right as the second amendment – use your rights, or lose them folks.

    Thanks

  19. I love This Blog! Awesome Job! Check out this video on Why YOU should Oppose Gun Control!

      For your Consideration

      As an LEO when confronted with a gang of thugs terrorizing an area, I have used this simple and effective strategy.

      1. Identify the Boss
      2. Make the Boss understand that unless he makes the thugs stop terrorizing the area, I will make his life miserable.
      3. It is called the “Slap & Pickle”

      In regards to the 2nd Amendment and Gun Control
      1. Boss: Banks and Wall street
      2. Thugs: Obama and anti-gun politicians
      3. “Slap & Pickle”: I will stop paying the mortgage on my house and business until Obama and anti-gun politicians restore my 2nd Amendment rights and stop trying to take them.

      Pros to Strategy:
      Money talks, it’s all about the money, it must flow
      Available to anyone regardless of age or physical condition
      Confrontation with authority averted at this point
      Re-election war chests negatively impacted

      Cons to Strategy:
      Credit rating lowered
      Look for a house to rent

      Respectfully submitted,
      P.O. I. FISH

  20. Thanks Joseph this is an awesome video. Appreciate your kind words and support. God Bless!

    From western NC>
    The strongest reason for people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government. -Thomas Jefferson

    Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself. They are the American people’s liberty teeth and keystone under independence … From the hour the Pilgrims landed, to the present day, events, occurrences, and tendencies prove that to insure peace, security and happiness, the rifle and pistol are equally indispensable . . . the very atmosphere of firearms everywhere restrains evil interference – they deserve a place of honor with all that is good. -George Washington

    The Constitution shall never be construed….to prevent the people of the United States who are peaceable citizens from keeping their own arms. -Samuel Adams

    God Bless you sir, What a beautiful tribute and site. Thanks for stopping by mine. Her’s another on guns for you. But of course, Holder was to busy trying to get as many guns as possible to sell to the Mexican drug cartels.

  23. Mr W says:

    The seconed amendment says in order for the people to form a militia , why would the people want to form a militia and if the people formed a milita who would they be fighting and what types of weapons would the other militia have that they would be fighting ? Would the be musket guns or guns that only held four bullets, and it seems to me that the seconed admeent was put in order for America to always be the land of the free and government is trying to take that away

  26. I’m glad I found this site. I will be directing many of my clients here.

    Let’s turn the anti Second Amendment argument back on the liberal media and ask them why they need the First Amendment.

  28. Jeff says:

    Hello!

    My name is Jeff. I’m a Casting Director at Firecracker Films, a television production company in California. We are currently producing a new show that we think will be of great interest to your members/readers and I was wondering if you’d be willing to help us spread the word or maybe even might be interested yourself or know somebody who may be interested. Basically, we are looking for Americans from across the country whose strong belief in the constitution sometimes requires them to live interesting lives.

    This is the national casting call for the project. Feel free to post it or email anywhere you want. If you have any questions, or ideas on how best to find people to feature, I would love to talk to you. We plan on being as discrete, respectful and sensitive to privacy concerns as possible at this early stage. But we’re looking for some great and true Americans with passionate beliefs and interesting ways of life that could help us show a different way of life that is often underrepresented or skewed by the media.

    ——————————

    CALLING ALL PATRIOTS….

    Santa Monica-based Firecracker Films is casting an important new documentary series for a major cable channel that will chronicle the lives of people who love America as its Founders intended and live like it.

    Do you or a family member belong to a militia? Believe strongly in the second amendment and/or your right to self-preservation? Live in interesting or unique circumstances because of those beliefs? We want to talk to you about your way of life.

    If you are interested, think you might be a fit or have any questions, please contact us by emailing bornfreedoc@gmail.com as soon as possible. And if you know someone who fits the above description, please pass this message on to them.

    There will be compensation for those stories that are selected to be filmed for the pilot. All information shared will be kept confidential.

    Thanks in advance for any help you may be able to provide!

      Jeff – Not to sound paranoid, but your solicitation could be used by fed provocateurs seining for really strong 2d Amendment supporters. I know this because I am a retired fed law enforcement officer who has infiltrated subversive activities. My own experiences in 37 years law enforcement convince me (1) government has become infinitely corrupt, and (2) only an armed citizenry stands between us and a government which hates our institutions, mores, traditions, and laws. So – if you are a provocateur – here’s your answer. If not, then I respect your interest in portraying legally armed citizens in a truthful, even friendly, light.

  29. Dale Brady says:

    Make a mental evaluation parts of a gun background checks on handgun purchase and for a concealed carry permit.

  30. Reis Kash says:

    The reference to a militia in the 2d Amendment has an historical basis: the grand-parents and great-grand parents of the American patriots who fought for and wrote the Constitution had been militia members who had battled King Charles I (who had tried to limit parliament and the militia system), and King James II who was forced to abdicate for the same behaviors. Charles, you will recall, was beheaded. Our Colonial ancestors equated liberty with the ability to resist tyranny through an armed citizenry – hence the reference to a militia. Insane gun grabbers have tried to insist only members of the army or the national guard or a formal militia may keep and bear arms, but that – like most of their statements are lies.

  31. Mark Alderson says:

    According to New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, the recent terror bombings in Boston require a new interpretation of the Constitution to give the government greater power to protect citizens.
    The government is not enforcing the laws they already have. They are not taking the guns away from the bad guys now, even though they know who they are. They have records on every one of them, if they didn’t they would pass a background check anyway. This is from an objective analysis of the data. Obama says it is just common sense to destroy the second amendment “common sense”—-COMMON BUT WRONG!!!!

    • Reis R. Kash says:

      Obama is not interested in gun control which logically would consist of controlling guns in the hands of criminals. He is interested in two things: control of firearms in the hands of free citizens and control of free citizens. Obama is a racist fascist and a threat to all American citizens. I sincerely believe he is a Muslim (he has said so many times himself) and that he intends the destruction of the United States as a Constitutional Republic.

  33. eric tormis says:

    Gun control infringes on a person’s constitutional right to keep and bear arms enshrined in the 2nd Amendment. The provision is unambiguous: “A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the People to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.” I agree with Justice Scalia in DC v. Heller: “The right of the whole people, old and young, men, women and boys, and not militia only, to keep and bear arms of every description, not such merely as are used by the militia, shall not be infringed, curtailed, or broken in upon, in the smallest degree; and all this for the important end to be attained: the rearing up and qualifying a well-regulated militia, so vitally necessary to the security of a free State.” The right to keep and bear arms is an individual not a collective right. To my recollection, when martial law was declared in the Philippines, one of the first executive orders issued by the dictator Pres. Marcos was to ban all weapons and firearms and the imposition of death penalty for illegal possession of firearms by the citizenry.
