The Bethlehem Morning Call reports that we had 1000 people lining the bridge between Allentown and Bethlehem as compared to the "Million" Moms 75 marchers. I was there. We had twice that number lining the bridge -- and our 2000 pro-self-defense activists followed us over to a rally afterwards --First Freedom, Rally in the Valley -- where I, Kenn Blanchard, Sheriff Richard Mack, and Maria Heil of the Second Amendment Sisters spoke.

George W. Bush is campaigning in Allentown today. I'm sure his advisors regularly tell him that polls show the American people want more gun control. Somebody needs to show him this article so he'll finally see the difference between what people actually believe and what the media's push polls distort for news reports. Then, maybe, Bush won't be afraid to confront Al Gore, who is pushing new firearms restrictions, and say during one of the debates, "All gun-control burdens imposed on law-abiding citizens increase violent crime by disarming only potential victims, shifting the balance of power to the illegally armed criminal and terrorist."
