EVERYTIME we have such results, we need to propose legislation.

To INCREASE gun rights, increase privacy rights, decrease taxes, and just keep hitting them till they say: "DONT GO AFTER THEIR GUNS! IT BACKFIRES EVERY TIME!"

I attended the Westford,Ma

I attended the Westford,Ma selectmen meeting tonight. I suspected a decent turnout as I had been in touch with the "Westford Pro 2A" group that is leading the charge against the gun ban... but I was quite stunned to see the constant caravan of vehicles pulling into the Stony Brook School driveway. Once I got to the school, there was not a parking spot available and I had to make a spot behind a facilities building. As I walked in, there was a contingent of Oath Keepers showing their support and a few local reporters and cameramen doing interviews with attendees. Inside the hall, it was a packed house. I have no idea what the capacity of the hall is, but my best guesstimate of attendance is somewhere between 400-500 people. The overwhelming majority (guesstimate 10-1) opposing any infringement on 2nd amendment. I think everyone expected the meeting to be long, drawn out debate, but instead, the Selectmen removed the Article from the warrant, signed the warrant, and adjourned the meeting. The meeting lasted maybe 15 minutes. No doubt, the outcome was due to good,decent people getting of the couch and reminding the Selectmen who rules who. Great job Westford!!!! Before adjourning, the selectmen commented on the overwhelming amount of phone calls and emails they had received, and the education they all received from the voters on the issue. Overall, a great day for liberty loving citizens. Lots of thanks to "Westford Pro 2a" who did an amazing job organizing opposition and the successful defeat of Article 30!!!

I hope this will send a

I hope this will send a message to the rest of the cities and towns in Mass. and elsewhere that such shenanigans from elected and appointed "trustees" will no longer be tolerated. Thanks for your time and commitment.

Now if only we could start to achieve the same kind of results with less "highly charged" issues, but that nonetheless ruin or deprive folks of their liberty and property every day.

Cheers to you and all who take the time to try to set the limits.

Liberty Wins!

I know, shocker. Article 30 is gone, along with the challenge to gun owners. Rough estimates of over 400 people showed up with a 9-1 pro 2a crowd. Oathkeepers were in Attendance. A good night for liberty.

Is there a video

of Liberty winning ?

cheers!!

Inspiring news, way to go.

Why do we have to beg

Why do we have to beg for these traitors/criminals to stop what they are doing????

It clearly shows me that government has far out served its purpose!!

Seems to me they are going to use men with guns to take away the ones we all have!

This according to the board of selectmen.

mods, can you embed the video?

Comment on video...

the commentator in the video says to stand up for our "Constitutional and Civil rights" and "due process under the 14th Amendment".

First note... OUR RIGHT to bear arms in defense of ourselves and the State is absolutely unequivocally UN-ALIENABLE!! It is NOT a civil right or constitutionally granted right.... civil rights and government granted rights are rights that are NOT UN-ALIENABLE and can be revoked by the issuing authority at any time.

Second, we are NOT 14th amendment citizens... but we are the "citizens of the several states" which is the ORIGINAL class of citizens that the US Constitution recognizes.

14th Amendment was drawn up to give newly freed black slaves FEDERAL protection by forcing the newly formed US Citizen class, which is what the 14th Amendment did, Congress was able to afford protection by claming they were "US Citizens" which is NOT the same as "citizens of the several states" as stupid as that may sound.

Its all a legal word game and we DONT want to be using the WRONG LEGAL WORDS!

Love Liberty, be Vigilant

Guys

If I can, I will try to make my presence known here tonight. Any ideas for signs?

I was thinking:

"Criminals don't obey laws"
"Stop punishing good people for the actions of bad people"
"Respect the 2nd amendment"

Can anyone else make it here? I don't want to be singled out and given a hard time from law enforcement and delusional, pissed off socialists.

How about..."A national gun

How about..."A national gun registry just for violent criminals, who used gun's during the commencement of a crime. Exactly like the one for sex offenders"?

The idea is to help people focus on the real problem, which is criminals with guns, not people having guns.

"HIS"story is going on all the time. Whether or not one sees it, is the defining point of one's character.~MEB

How about a "National Registry of Constitutional Traitors?"

We need a National web-site to start listing these traitors, so they can be publicly identified and removed from positions of trust.

Have we had enough yet?

Think Truth...Trust Truth...Rely on Truth!

I for one have had enough

And love the idea for a National Registry.. Send these Traitors a notice that they have 30 days to register or the citizens will run them out on a rail. Then the citizens would have a ready list of whom to vote out next election..

The town has no authority to do this. Besides...

do you really think they would try to enforce this ban at the cost of their lives?

It doesn't get any more real than this.

Can anyone from Mass. or

Can anyone from Mass. or Southern New Hampshire make it this evening to tell these fools off?
I can't. I'm in the W.I.'s right now.
