NRA-ILA GRASSROOTS VOLUME 23, NUMBER 33

|
Gun
ban advocates, knowing their goals aren’t especially popular with the
American people, have in recent years tried to couch their agenda in
more innocuous-sounding terms. They don’t want to ban all guns, they’ll
say, they just want to keep them out of the wrong hands. But once you
start paying close attention to their claims, you realize that the
“wrong hands” might be closer and more numerous than you think … and
might even include the more senior members of your family. |

On
Monday, the Post’s “fact-checker,” Glenn Kessler, said that the NRA's
new TV ad is wrong, in claiming that Clinton “doesn’t believe in your
right to keep a gun at home for self-defense.”

At
the same time establishment newspapers are openly abandoning their
usual façade of impartiality in their news coverage, their editorial
boards have been working overtime to elect Hillary Clinton. However, few
have been doing Robby Mook and David Brock’s work for them quite like
the New York Times, as evidenced by a ridiculous pro-Clinton/anti-NRA
screed that appeared in the August 14 edition of the paper.

In
a recent Medical Economics blog, Dr. Monya De wrote a piece titled,
“Obtaining an assault rifle should be as difficult as becoming a
doctor.” In this outlandish article, De illustrates the difficulties
medical students must go through in order to practice medicine. She
calls them “model citizens, because model citizens should be the ones
holding lives in their hands.” |

On
August 10th, the California Rifle & Pistol Association and several
individuals, with the support of the National Rifle Association, filed a
lawsuit in federal court to vindicate the Second Amendment right of
Californians to carry a firearm in public for self-defense. |

As
we previously reported, a charity firearm raffle by a United Way
chapter in New Mexico was put in jeopardy when an anti-gun activist
interfered by convincing United Way Worldwide to block the raffle. The
chapter holding the raffle, United Way of Otero County, announced on
Wednesday that it is resuming the raffle. |

Pennsylvania
Attorney General Kathleen G. Kane resigned this week after a jury found
her guilty of perjury, criminal conspiracy, and several other criminal
charges relating to the abuse of her position. Gun owners will take
particular interest in this conviction, as during her tenure as AG Kane
repeatedly demonstrated a marked hostility to the rights of
Pennsylvanians, evidently while displaying a personal disregard for the
laws she was tasked to uphold. |

WHAT IS THE FREEDOM CHALLENGE?
The Freedom Challenge grassroots campaign was created by Rock Island Auction Company® to
raise awareness and financial support for NRA-ILA, an organization that
has stalwartly defended the Second Amendment for decades. 2016 is the
most important year we’ve seen in a generation or more. The attack on
the Second Amendment is clear; many politicians, government officials
and members of the media look to destroy our Constitutional rights. The
Supreme Court's greatest Second Amendment advocate — Justice Antonin
Scalia — has passed away, leaving a vacancy on the Court that the next
president will fill. Simply put, our firearm and other freedoms hang in
the balance and it will take an army of us to take a stand.

Being
a law enforcement officer is becoming increasingly dangerous as violent
protests are blamed on members of the thin blue line. Many in the
mainstream media and political leaders have put targets on the backs of
those who wear a badge. But Milwaukee County, Wisconsin Sheriff David A.
Clarke, Jr.—a 38-year career cop—says they can't back down. He blames
the Black Lives Matter movement for fueling the flames of anger toward
law enforcement. And states that the one group that truly cares about
the lives of black people are American police officers. |
