Politics and the 2nd Amendment

We each make the contributions we can. While working the GOCRA table Saturday I gave out homework with handshakes: here's an extra form. Go talk to someone who should get more involved please.


Everyone left with a smile and someone in mind.

Another thought: big donations are difficult to get past the finance minister at home and there always seems to be some bill or event or whatever. But I've found I don't miss the $10 a month I set up as a recurring donation.

Thanks Andrew and the rest of you for all your hard work.
I just made a small donation and I will try and do more in the future.

This year will require a lot of man power ... we will win on numbers and education ....

education: ENHANCED BACKGROUND CHECKS = REGISTRATON = CONFISCATION

We have enough gun laws ... enforce the ones we have ....

Thank you GOCRA for all that you do! Another donation to the PAC is pending.

^^^^This. I set up recurring donations to both GOCRA and MNGOPAC late last year. On a monthly basis, I don't miss the money. However, to write two $300 checks once a year is another matter entirely. I really should set up another recurring donation to the NRA/ILA, but I figure it's more important to spend the money at home right now.

I was going to do a little more as a single, but I went with the monthly also. In the end it will work out much better for the PAC, and as mentioned, have little effect on me. If all goes well for me I may do that single I planned on anyway as an addition.
