The would-be gun shop owner is a Marine Corps veteran: James Gates, 28 is getting his own support to open the shop and push back on the protest, from Arlington Falls Church Young Republicans. They’ve started a petition of their own:
“NOVA Firearms, which plans to open the shop, is owned by Marine Corps veteran James “J.B.” Gates. Stand with J.B., the 2nd Amendment, and small business owners everywhere by signing the Arlington Falls Church Young Republicans’ petition of support below.”
The GOP petition features an image of Uncle Sam with the slogan “We Want You to Support the Second Amendment.” |

Someone should point out to Kapasouris that the "community was upset" in Arkansas in the '60s about blacks going to white schools.
Ah, so WHAT? |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
