It does not matter "where it/they came from" or "who gave it/them" regarding rights. All that really matters is that some dead white guys knew
instinctively that government must be barred from infringing upon a citizen's lawful exercise of any right. If Martin walks the walk
after he is elected, if he is elected, then we
may be in for a pleasant surprise come next year. But, Martin is a politician first and foremost, never forget that.
Not trying to brag, but.... I have a very good relationship with Mr. Martin, we speak often. He knew a lot about 2A rights before I met him. He is a friend of MO. Senator Brian Nieves. Brian introduced the OC preemption bill in the Missouri Senate this year and has a long track record in the Missouri House before he went to the Senate on 2A rights. Brian is every bit a 2A advocate both in and out of the political arena.
We will see action on OC rights next year, no doubt. Ed Martin as AG can do a lot for OC rights. His oppoenent did a lot for 2A rights while he was a Republican, now a Democrat, NOT and advocate. Our present AG a deligate to the Democratic Nat'l Convention voted for more 2A restrictions as part of their platform!
We know where he stands now, give Ed Martin a chance, we most certainly have more to gain than to lose. I will be meeting with Ed in Jefferson City with an OC proposal for him as AG of Missouri in January. The whole package is ready for him, he just needs to win the election. Both have an A rating from the NRA but Ed had publically come out in favor of OC rights and specifically mentioned Art.1 Sec. 23 of the Missouri Constitution. Let's go for it.
For those that missed it, here is the video again:

"Rally Day" at the capitol... I'm waiting for the permit. Hopefully this will be in April. It's not only a chance for the politicians to speak, it's an opportunity for us to speak with them! Tahe it, use it. My guess is there will be many things already in motion before the "Rally Day". Make the time, take the time to go and talk to these folks. 2013 can be the year, but it won't happen from here, it happens in Jefferson City. Yes, politics sucks, but that's the way it is. We can go for it or just sit back and watch our rights get worse instead of better.
I'm tacking this on here too: Political email...
Dear Friend,
While it's hard to believe, there are less than 130 hours until the polls close on Election Day. It's been an incredible journey! Ed and his volunteers have worked tirelessly to make the case to Missouri voters that we need a conservative fighter as our Attorney General.
As a small business owner, I can tell you it matters who our Attorney General is. When OSHA, the EPA, Obamacare, and the Federal government come knocking on the doors of small businesses across Missouri, we need someone who has our backs. I've known Ed for years and I know, as our next Attorney General, he will fight every single day to protect us.
But right now, he needs our support. For the last 20 years, the Democrats have ruled our AG's office and they won't give it up without a fight. Money from trial attorneys and special interests across the country has poured into this race to distort the record. Ed needs your support to STAND UP and FIGHT BACK against the liberal machine.
Will you stand with Ed today? As you read this message, time is running out to make a difference. Ed needs your support of $25, $50, $75 or more right now to win this election and start standing up for Missouri job creators!
As our next Attorney General, Ed can do a lot of great things for Missouri. I know you want to see someone who will stand up for our freedoms and stop pandering to President Obama and his liberal cohorts.
With your help, Ed can and will win this election. Will you stand with him today? With less than six days to the election, time is quickly running out.
Sincerely,
Randy McArthur
