Fall Freedom Festival in support of our SECOND AMENDMENT RIGHTS!

Sorry for the late notice, but we just learned of this event. The shifts from 10am – 2pm and 2pm – 6pm. If you can help, please send Bruce Jackson An email at Bruce@vcdl.org.
This will be an outdoor event so dress appropriately. We will have the VCDL Canopy there.
(and from the flier)
Forty vendors including Sig Sauer and Fausti, non-profits like Delta Waterfowl and Ducks Unlimited, stuff for the ladies who aren’t wearing camo, door raffles every 30 minutes throughout the festival and Friends of the NRA’s Wall of Guns raffling 50 different firearms. Autographs with William Bethards from Top Shot and a book signing with author Emily Miller; Emily gets her gun…but Obama wants to take yours. Great Virginia Barbeque, ice cream and more!

Thanks to J. Mark Williamson for the information below:
Mike Burnette of Point Blank Sporting Goods in Gretna, VA is wanting to move his current location and build an indoor gun range in the basement of the new location. The town council met to discuss and it was tabled (possibly due to complaints) until their next meeting November 11th. Below is article in local paper.

8. Arizona police officer asked not to wear uniform at daughter's school
**************************************************
I tell police officers regularly not to count on the antis letting them keep their guns. Police are not used to this kind of prejudicial treatment, but the rest of us are. Perhaps this will be a wakeup call for some of them who don't yet understand the big picture:

9. Report: McAuliffe campaign accepted $120,000 from firm linked to arms deals

10. Gun control fan Terry McAuliffe is Virginia's newest gun owner
**************************************************
Shortly after the tragedy at Sandy Hook, Terry McAuliffe started off 2013 by purchasing an over and under shotgun. I guess that means there's at least one type of gun he doesn't want to ban...for now.

11. ZoNation: The Black N.R.A.? More like the Fake N.R.-eh? [Video]
**************************************************
The antis love to divide us into artificial groups so they can conquer us. This is an excellent parody that pokes the antis right in the eye, pointing out how racist most of them are:

12. [OR] Bad guys don't necessarily stop with a fatal hit [Video]
**************************************************
Why you should carry plenty of ammo. In this video a bad guy receives a fatal gun shot and keeps coming. After the gunfight, he flees, only to die a few minutes later after he finally bleeds out.
