The people of Roseburg have gone through a horrific tragedy and have stayed strong and committed. They will survive! But that’s not why we’re writing this; we believe Roseburg has accomplished something no one else has been able to.
Here’s how we see it and we’d like to hear your opinion. The people of Roseburg have endured over the last week something that hopefully you and I will never experience and they stood strong. They, in our opinion have done more for gun rights than any gun lobby out there. In less than a week they have propelled our right to self-protection to the next level and it’s something the NRA, GOA and all the others have failed to do. Please, do not take that statement wrong. We would not have the rights we have now if it wasn’t for the NRA, GOA, Second Amendment Foundation and all the others. These organizations work around the clock to support and defend our rights as gun owners. But the people of Roseburg’s message has reached millions of people that would not have otherwise thought about gun rights; which is because of mainstream media. They control what people read, hear and see, but they couldn’t control what the people of Roseburg said. The interviews made it on prime-time news, it reached millions; it reached millions that have never given gun ownership much thought. They broke down the barriers that 2nd Amendment Supporters have been trying to for years.
How many Americans out there read, heard and saw how passionate the people of Roseburg were about gun rights? They heard their arguments against gun free zones and people were listening. Yes, gun grabbers heard and of course started bitching and complaining but how many others sat up and said “wow, I never thought of that”. The people of Roseburg spoke to millions and the word got out.
Do you agree or disagree? What are your thoughts? Do you believe the people of Roseburg have done what others have failed to do?
