Activists to mark Gun Appreciation Day

Conservative and libertarian activists in the north state and nationwide are responding to the Left's calls for restricting and even seizing firearms by planning a Gun Appreciation Day for Saturday, Jan. 19.

From the organizers via the Siskiyou County-based Pie N Politics:

We’re marching towards Gun Appreciation Day full steam ahead, and already the liberal gun control crowd is using every trick in the book to try and stop us. They even sent one of their key attack dogs on TV to insinuate that our efforts to protect our Second Amendment rights are racist.

Yes, they somehow found a way to pull out the race card against the Bill of Rights. It would be amusing if it wasn’t so sad.

We have put together a plan for a full media blast to counter their ridiculous claims and build support for Gun Appreciation Day. But we don’t have much time – especially considering frisky Uncle Joe Biden is charging full speed ahead with his gun-grabbing task force.

The group is seeking donations for a media blitz.

My hunch is that the movement will get a lot of support, considering that Americans are responding to what many see as the Left's unprecedented assault on our Constitution by joining the NRA in record numbers.

In reality, the prospect of more gun restrictions is polling terribly. And if the Obama administration thinks folks will just hand over all the new weapons they've purchased as a result of this push, I suspect they're in for a rude awakening.
