    If a fights what they want its what they will get. Be a cold day in hell when they get my guns.
    There will be days when the fishing is better than one's most optimistic forecast, others when it is far worse. Either is a gain over just staying home.

    INTRODUCED BY REPRESENTATIVES ELLINGER (Sponsor), SCHUPP, MCNEIL AND WALTON GRAY (Co-sponsors) remember them come election time !! and contact your representative to let them know what you think about house bill 545 PLEASE

    A gun, like any other source of power, is a force for either good or evil, being neither in itself, but dependent upon those who possess it
    From an old movie I saw

    Saw this earlier and have already mailed all my letters to the Capitol to every rep down there. Here is what I told them:

    I am writing to you in reference to House Bill No. 545 regarding gun control legislation in the state of Missouri. When you were elected, you took an oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States of America... The Second Amendment of the Constitution states:

    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 encourage to you to oppose any and all gun legislation that takes away this freedom and our right as citizens to keep and bear arms. New gun legislation will not stop events like Sandy Hook from happening or others in history. It only infringes upon the rights of law abiding citizens to protect themselves, their families, and their property.

    I ask that you and your fellow representatives adhere to the oath you took when you were elected. If you plan on voting in favor of this bill, I can assure you I will do everything possible to campaign against your relection bid and this will most likely be your last time in office according to my figures. It is your choice…Vote NO on #545.

    Being a MO native, this really got my attention this morning. The thing is, it's all about stripping our rights in increments. What they have proposed seems outlandish to most of us and it looks like they've asked for the sun, moon and stars. But what happens if they get just one little part of what they're proposing in a "compromise?" That's one more piece of freedom taken. Y'all know the old saying, give them an inch and they'll take a mile. It's not really about guns. It's about the assault on our rights and our freedom.

    mogunowners.com is a good site to be a member. Very few members post. This site ought to be buzzing.
    I was a member of argunowners.com but it's closed. I posted for 2 years and never got a reply.
    msgunowners.com and tngunowners.com are a buzz everyday.
