Subject: 5 Phone Calls for Freedom (Next Monday and Tuesday) Feb. 25th and 26th
Greetings in Freedom:
Wisconsin Carry is working with some other groups
around the country to reject any infringements on the gun rights of law-abiding
citizens. The "coalition" is organizing "FIVE PHONE CALLS FOR FREEDOM"
this will take place next Monday and Tuesday (Feb 25th and 26th)
EVEN if you live in a district with an otherwise
"pro-gun" representative, it’s still critical to call as the anti-gun
crowd will be doing their best to sway these reps under the guise of pretending
the general public is behind them. DO NOT BE THE SILENT MAJORITY. Please
make these calls.
Here are details:
Fight Pending Attack by Anti-Gun Radicals
On Feb. 25 & 26, make ‘Five Phone Calls for
Freedom’
IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUIRED
Make ‘Five Phone Calls for Freedom’
To fight back against the anti-freedom
attack, we are asking millions of Second Amendment supporters represented by
the Coalition and others to deliver a loud and clear message to Congress by
making 5 phone calls on Monday and Tuesday (Feb. 25 & 26). Please note that
we said CALL, not email. We want millions of voices to ring through the
congressional switchboard, so please note that you might have to try several
times to get through.
Specifically, we are asking you to call:
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell at
202-224-2541 House Speaker John Boehner at 202-225-0600 Senator Richard Burr at
202-224-3154 Senator Kay Hagan at 202-224-6342 Your
representative to the U.S. House. To identify your US House representative, go
to: http://www.house.gov/representatives/ and then enter your zip code in the upper right corner
of the page
DELIVER THIS MESSAGE
Give congressional staff 3 simple talking points:
Nothing about the federal proposals is
acceptable – not banning semi-automatic firearms and magazines, not expanding
the list of people prohibited from owning guns, and not registering private gun
sales via the National Instant Check System; Because “compromise” means losing
freedom, you will not “compromise” on this issue, including any “lite” version
of registering private sales through the National Instant Check System; and As
a member of one of the organizations comprising the National Coalition to Stop
the Gun Ban, you will support coordinated Coalition action against any
legislator who supports these ineffective measures that would affect millions
of law abiding citizens while criminals would just side-step them.
Carry on,
Nik Clark

THE SECOND AMENDMENT
There are several versions of the
text of the Second Amendment, each with slight capitalization and punctuation
differences, found in the official documents surrounding the adoption of the
Bill of Rights.[5] One version
was passed by the Congress,[6] while
another is found in the copies distributed to the States[7] and then
ratified by them.
As passed by the Congress:
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.
As ratified by the States and
authenticated by Thomas Jefferson, Secretary of State:
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.[8]
The original
hand-written copy of the Bill of Rights, approved by the House and Senate, was
prepared by scribe William
Lambert and resides in the National Archives.
The Second Amendment is the only
amendment to the Constitution which states a purpose.[9]
