Thank you, Shane, for your efforts...
I will try to make a point to use GoMaine in the future. Also thanks for the input that GoMaine is also supporting the opencarry crowd. I really wasn't sure what the position was seeing I have stayed away from it for sometime because I didn't feel comfortable in the direction it was going.
From their beginning, I thought GOMaine's focus was to stay plugged into the legislative/municipal/legal pulse of activity pertaining to the 2nd Amendment (US) and Article I Section 16 (ME). Whether a law will stand up to constitutional scrutiny or not doesn't stop our legislature or congress from enacting them. Once enacted, someone must be brave enough to break it, then marshal it through the court system until it's found unconstitutional. It's easier to stop a bad law from becoming a law when you have someone like Shane at GOMaine watchdogging what's happening in Augusta and elsewhere, and let everyone know about it.
Not everyone is cut out to do what Shane does, but I'm glad he's doing it. Thank you, Shane.
I do understand though we must do what must be done to win the masses or nothing will be gained.
The sad truth is that this battle to maintain our 2-A/I-16 rights will never be fully won. There will always be opposition trying to put limits on our right or abolish it altogether.
The battle cry "it's the law of the land" only works if it's a law that the opposition agrees with. No higher law in Maine than our Maine Constitution, and no higher law in the US than the US Constitution. And here we are still fighting to keep each and every right.
