GOA Letter

After Big Wins In Elections, It's Time For GOA Membership To Grow

Gun Owners of America was able to help elect 5 new pro-gun members to the United States Senate and more than 40 pro-gunners to the House of Representatives!

AND YOU MADE IT POSSIBLE. Thank you.

In an election where we were the ONLY NATIONAL GUN GROUP to help many of these candidates, it highlights just how critical the gun issue is to Americans, and how important you were to those victories.

GOA could not have done the work without the support of our members -- and now, more than ever, we need your help to double or even triple our membership before 2012!!!

Why? Because 2012 will be a presidential election year and the radical left wing in America will once again be "all in" for Barack Obama.

If they turn out their forces to help Obama win re-election, those voters will translate down to votes for anti-gun members of Congress again, just as they did in 2008.

We can't let that happen without a fight.

Gun Owners of America and GOA Political Victory Fund used limited resources this year to make great gains to protect the Second Amendment. If you can help us grow now, by alerting your family, friends and neighbors, to the work of GOA and the need for them to become members, we will be able to win additional races in 2012!

Believe me, the anti-gun left in this nation has not given up. They see the 2010 election as a hiccup, not the end of the battle or the war. And we can't look at it that way either.

The bottom line in elections is that there is strength in numbers, and if GOA doubles in size NOW, we can multiply what we did this year by several times. That is real "bang for the buck."

With our limited resources this year, we were able to travel around the country giving the voting records of the pro-gun and anti-gun candidates to their voters. We were able to make thousands of phone calls directly to pro-gun voters in the target districts. We were able to send mailings and e-mail alerts to our members to ask them to volunteer in key races.

And the payoff is those 5 new Senators and over 40 members of the House I mentioned above.

But our work is far from over!

Anti-gun Harry Reid is still in control as the Majority Leader of the United States Senate. Nancy Pelosi still wields her power in the House.

AND BARACK OBAMA IS STILL PRESIDENT!

As I said, we cannot sit back now and think we won the war. We won the first battle over the Obama Administration and the radical left who still hold the leadership in the Senate.

That's why Gun Owners of America needs you.

There is a reason why Congressman Ron Paul calls GOA the only "no compromise gun lobby in Washington."

There is a reason why Senator Tom Coburn calls GOA the "real gun lobby in Washington D.C."

And that reason is YOU!

Our members help put pressure on Congress every time we send one of our alerts asking you to contact your representatives about gun legislation.

When our lobbyists hit the halls of Congress and tell members we are opposed or supportive of a bill, they know our membership will also let them know WE ARE ALL WATCHING HOW THEY VOTE.

Just think how much more effective we can be if we double or triple our membership in the next 12 months!

2010 has been the "easy year" when it comes to election gains. We went out and picked the "low-hanging fruit."

The races in 2012 will be for tougher districts, tougher candidates and we'll also be fighting the Obama factor -- where the radical left-wing will be pouring huge amounts of money and manpower to help make him a two-term president.

So, if you've just sat back to enjoy the many victories of November 2nd, DON'T!

WE NEED YOU!

You are our best salesperson to tell our story to your friends, neighbors and everyone you communicate with around the country.

Tell them that for a small membership donation of $20 or $30, they can be a major factor in not only stopping anti-gun laws... they can be part of the organization that is fighting to repeal the anti-gun laws already on the books.

I don't care if they are hunters, shooters, collectors or just people who understand that the Second Amendment is critical to all our other freedoms, we need them as members of GOA.

And if they sign up to receive our GOA e-mail alerts, they can be part of our lobbying team of people all over the country who call, write and e-mail our elected leaders on important gun issues.

GOA and our members have stood alone many times when others compromised, or said legislation or Presidential appointments could not be stopped -- and we have proved the naysayers wrong.

WE WILL NOT COMPROMISE -- your rights are not "bargaining chips" to be used at the negotiating table, and we will never treat them as such.

Don't read this Alert and do nothing. Pass it on to everyone you know and ask them to join Gun Owners of America now by going to:

It will make a huge difference in the outcome of the 2012 elections and the future of this nation. Thank you.

The Petit Murders: Why You And Yours Need A Gun

"........I hope these two oxygen thieves experience hell on earth from here on out and then tumble into an especially atrocious, concentrated dose of eternal damnation for raping, torturing and murdering Jennifer Hawke-Petit (48), Hayley (17) and little 11-year-old Michaela. FYI: After raping and torturing Hayley and Michaela, Hayes and Komisarjevsky drenched the girls in gasoline and then lit them on fire. They died of smoke inhalation. The mother was raped and then strangled to death."

The cultural expectations back then did not include being soft on perpetrators of interpersonal crimes, hopefully the views would swing back that way to the point of making such direct ads possible again."

Dinner With The Militia

"The story of a female grad student who aspires to do refugee work with children in war torn countries, who is a daughter, a girlfriend, a friend, and is also a member of the local militia, might sound strange to most. Once you understand the truth about militias, my life doesn’t seem strange at all"

Guns

Oleg Volk
"
This man with a gun is a coward
Who'd rather retreat than fight
He shrinks from violent conflict
And fears enemy's might

His wife is a skittish woman
Who'd rather be safe than right
She carries a gun with reluctance
Disliking its very sight

These two who might shake in fear
On perceiving a credible threat
Would fight for each other and children
Retreating not by a step

They fear and yet they conquer
The fear that evil spreads
They like their weapons little
But they cherish what guns protect"

Who Do You Save........A Prostitute Or A Politician?

Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership
"Okay, here's a little scruples quiz for you ...

Imagine you're a fireman in a small town where you know everybody. You rush into a burning hotel, and there, unconscious on the floor of one of the rooms lie a pair of people you know to be a politician and a prostitute. You're by yourself, and you can only rescue one of the two.

Question: which one do you save?"

To Keep And Bear Arms

Patriot Post

A man presumably in his 20s attempted to carjack a black Cadillac Escalade at a gas station in Detroit, Michigan. The unnamed victim, 36, was pumping gas when he was attacked by the suspect. The victim's girlfriend had been in the gas station when the incident began but quickly ran outside, grabbed her daughter who was still in the car, and ran back into the station for cover. The suspect pulled a gun, shooting the victim, who grabbed his own pistol and returned fire as the carjacker was getting in the vehicle. According to police, more than 20 shots were fired, leaving the suspect dead and the victim with multiple hits to the face and body. He is in serious condition at a hospital; his girlfriend and daughter, though terrified, were not hurt. The victim has a valid carry permit.

The Situation

Oleg Volk

"Many a thug is thriving
Who preys upon fellow man
Their victims, unable or cowed
Have not slayed them in self-defense

Many abusive officials, mobsters and other scum
Live comfortably and safely despite the evil they've done
Those whom they keep in fear pay tribute and not complain
As petty tyrants' replacements would act pretty much the same

Conscription and heavy taxes -- enslavement by other name
Are inflicted by bigger tyrants, federal and state
Their subjects just grin and bear without doing a thing
Though for such offences people used to depose kings

We rationalize surrender, pay Dane geld without complaint
Giving brigands drunken with power the fig leaf of our consent
They deserve altogether different, hemp rope and speedy lead
For ogres who've tasted man flesh won't quit until they are dead."
