This is for everyone's pocket reference.
I hope he does run for office.
 
Just got a chance to watch it. A fast talker but excellent content. Great points. It's Americans like him that remind us who we are as a nation. He watched fellow Americans die trying to protect our country, our land. There comes a time when we must all toe the line to defend our freedoms. That's the whole point of the Second Amendment.

We all must think hard on where we personally draw the line. Not just by picking up a rifle but by writing Congress, encouraging others to vote, educating friends and family, introducing new shooters, and not losing the freedoms we have that were earned by good men.

Plenty of my family fought, bled and died for this country, the least I can do is send a few letters a week, make a few phone calls a week, try to spread the word at local gun shops to defend our freedom.
 
this is an excellent example of activism

(but this forum is for calls to action, please see the posting guidelines.)
 
So how can this be used to get out message across? Do we just encourage its distribution or just take good talking points from it? Those are the low level uses.

What if we focus on distribution to veteren and LE organizations where the members can identify with this articulate argument as well as generally distributing it?
 
This message was not lost on this vet. I have quietly been passing to others but sadly must remain clandestine in my doing so. Funny, the things this guy speaks of, and we have a big sign that states "Price of Freedom is Visible Here" at the front gate but as soon as you cross said sign, you give up the 1st, 2nd, & 4th.
 
That was amazing. I would have liked to have seen the expressions on the officials faces during his speech.

Excellent content that should be passed on to anyone and everyone that cares about the freedoms and liberty that the Constitution guarantees.

I see talking points that can be used. This video was posted by a friend on facebook. If you have a fb page its one worth sharing. Use social media to get it out.
 
Anyone in Iraq could buy any weapon there was including machines guns RPG's etc until we went there and started confiscating weapons and destroying ammo dumps. We instituted gun control and the NY SAFE act is a mild form of it. The reason we had such a hard time there was civilians did not have ten rd mag limits or AK's declared illegal and did not have so many useless pistols like here. So I really don't care what Weiss has to say
 
I sit here tonight remembering when I was 17yrs old and on a bus heading to Montomery, Al for my induction into the US Navy. At the time I was fool headed enough to actually think that our elected officials were actually seeking office to provide solid leadership and betterment for all. Heck I even felt it was a privilege to pay my taxes to help fund our great society. The small community I live in might have 500 if they count the dogs a couple times and for the most part everyone here believes totally that it's our right to own firearms and to protect our homes. However in recent times I have seen many young people that show signs that they feel if a person has more than one gun they are up to something evil. Good thing about where I live is city limits actually border my property and unless I start shooting across the street or wildly up in the air the police can only come by and ask if the can fire one or two of mine. The way this young man presented himself is a testimonial to the free thinking American's that too many have forgotten about and have just become what I believe was a word from Ben Franklin "SHEEPEL"
 
As I watch this over several times since you commented, i am reminded that the speech is awesome.. However, interestingly I notice that as soon as the speaker is finished and the applause starts you hear a man ask for it to be quiet in the chamber so the meeting can go on.
