Gun Owners of America voter guide

The GOA scores the candidates. Probably everyone on here agrees except for two

The summary:

The Bottom Line

Gun owners must understand this election is the most consequential and important election of our lifetime.

Gun owners cannot be complacent with relying on SCOTUS to strike down unconstitutional anti-gun laws because they take years to go through the judicial process. In the meantime, gun rights are infringed and gun owners will be jailed.

We began to see the greatest all-out assault on the Second Amendment with the Harris-Biden Administration, and a Harris-Walz Presidency will be much, much worse. Kamala Harris earned herself an “F-” with GOA and so has Tim Walz. The Harris-Walz ticket has earned an abysmal “F-” for the gun grabbing they have facilitated and future promises to infringe on the Second Amendment from the White House.

On the other hand, the Republican presidential ticket is a lot more friendly to gun owners and President Donald Trump’s running mate J.D. Vance has a perfect “A+” with GOA.

To protect the Second Amendment from certain infringement, gun owners must get out and vote for the Second Amendment on November 5th, 2024!

So GOA wants gun owners to vote for a known gun-grabbing gun grabber who wants nothing more than to grab all of our guns while simultaneously grabbing even more guns?

That settles it; I’m writing in John Wayne to teach them all a lesson.

Any general guidelines for who might be useful write-in candidates? Rated "F" Fue Lee (D) 59A is apparently running unopposed. (It's tough to be a voting gun owner in a district so blue it might have joined in the invasion of Pepperland).

Write-in votes are not counted in Minnesota generally without a request to do so.

Why would you write in a draft dodger? Billy the kid should do it.

Gun owners also suffered two notable setbacks over GOA’s strong objections during Presidency of Donald J. Trump, namely “Fix” NICS and Bump Stocks.

❌ STRIKE #1. Gun Owners of America sued the Trump Administration over the unconstitutional ban on bump stocks because it could have been weaponized into a total semiautomatic gun ban. It would take six years, a half dozen lawsuits, and a conservative majority on the Supreme Court to vindicate GOA in the case Garland v. Cargill which ruled that President Trump’s ban on bump stocks violated the law. This is one major strike against President Trump’s record.

❌ STRIKE #2. The second major setback that gun owners suffered under the Trump Administration was the enactment of the Fix NICS Act, which GOA opposed start to finish. Fundamentally, Gun Owners of America disagrees with many Republicans on the constitutionality and efficacy of the FBI’s broken NICS background check system—and therefore we opposed expanding it. But the Fix NICS expansion was so broken that gun owners with unpaid out-of-state speeding tickets would be subject to a federal gun ban! Republican leadership in the House and Senate fought GOA’s efforts to block the bill. Ultimately, congressional Republicans forced this onto President Trump’s desk in an omnibus government funding bill, which he signed.

To his credit, President Trump did listen to GOA’s hard-hitting criticisms of Fix NICS and eventually redefined the prohibited person category, “fugitive from justice.” This resulted in the successful elimination of tens of thousands of names from the NICS background check system and outraged anti-gun Democrats. The Trump Administration wasn’t perfect on the Second Amendment, but gun owners were far better off than if Hillary Clinton had won the election and it resulted in a bunch of victories for the Second Amendment too.
