    OC At Ron Paul Rally?

    Here's a pic from the rally. Very well attended, filled to "legal" capacity, so about 500 or so waited outside. Great cross-section of society there, very different from other "republican" establishment events I've attended in the past! Hope you are all going out to vote next Tuesday!

    Restraining Order = Lose 2A Rights?

    I've heard of several people who had bogus restraining orders taken on them but had to immediately liquidate their firearms possessions until they could sort it all out. This seems like it should be a huge target for us in the 2A community to take on as it could happen to anyone with absolutely...
