Winter, just before gun ban
Dear Friend,
THE SECOND AMENDMENT MAY NOT SURVIVE THE 2ND TERM OF
BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA.
DON'T BE FOOLED!
Even
though anti-gun zealots like
Barack Obama, Dianne Feinstein and Michael
Bloomberg couldn't rally the votes to pass a federal law to criminalize your Constitutional Right to keep and
bear arms... Their assault on your freedom has only just begun -- and they are
spending millions going state to state to get it done that way
(1,
2).
Just ask freedom-loving patriots in
states like Maryland, Colorado and New York -- their
2nd Amendment Rights are virtually gone.
That's
why I'd like to ask one simple question:
Is
the Second Amendment important enough to you to [request and] sign this DECLARATION OF FREEDOM? Or will you do
exactly what the pious liberals in Washington want and expect you to do... Nothing!
If
you choose to do nothing, they will systematically disarm you, me and every
other law-abiding citizen in the United States of America -- leaving us at the mercy of violent thugs and
criminals. But I don't believe you'll stand by and do nothing, my friend.
Otherwise I wouldn't have written to you today.
We
at the American Civil Rights Union are proud patriots just like you. We won't --
can't -- stand by and do nothing as nanny-state
liberals take away our God-given Rights. That's why I'm asking you to become
part of the American Civil Rights Union's campaign to protect the Second
Amendment.
I am
proud that since my late husband, Bob, founded the ACRU back in 1998, we have
grown into one of the most powerful pro-freedom, legal advocacy groups in Washington. Think of us as the CONSERVATIVE version of the ACLU.
But there are major differences between
us and the anti-American, anti-freedom ACLU:
·
We take no
taxpayer dollars...
·
We actually
defend the Constitution as it is written...
·
We win!
And
while we have the influence in Washington to affect legal proceedings on a variety of issues on
a nationwide level, we understand that this battle has become one of the
greatest threats to liberty and freedom that we face... and this battle is
going to be fought face to face, state by state.
HERE'S WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW: Everyone
cheered when the federal gun ban failed, but the real effort to confiscate the
firearms of legal citizens -- and the fight to stop this effort -- is just
beginning.
Barack
Obama, Michael Bloomberg, Andrew Cuomo and the elites in the liberal media hate
guns -- but most of all, they hate that you are allowed to have one. And while
they enjoy the security of armed guards and gated mansions... they are
perfectly content to leave you and me at the mercy of armed intruders who break
into our homes knowing that we've been disarmed by our own government!
Why
shouldn't WE, AS FREE CITIZENS, be entitled to choose whether or not to own a
firearm to protect our families and our property?
They
say, "You don't need a gun."
And
to that, our response needs to be -- "WE
DON'T HAVE A BILL OF "NEEDS" -- WE HAVE A BILL OF RIGHTS!!"
The
fact is that big government liberals don't see us as citizens -- they see us as
subjects. And once we are disarmed and
our Second Amendment Rights are a thing of the past, that's exactly what we
will become -- subjects of "King
Obama" and the rest of his "royal court."
So
what are you? A
citizen or a subject?
I
believe that you and I are free citizens -- citizens who tell the government
what to do -- not mere cattle who can be told what we can and cannot do by a
bunch of elitist, all-controlling bureaucrats in Washington and in the media.
Even if you don't own a gun... Even if you never plan to own
one... Even if you live in a state that protects your
2nd Amendment Rights... There is far more at stake right now than your
right to go to Wal-Mart and buy a shotgun.
What's at
stake is whether the Constitution even matters anymore.
We
at the ACRU believe it does matter -- even if
Barack Obama,
Joe
Biden and
Dianne Feinstein don't. The fight to take away your Second Amendment Rights is raging across the country -- and we've already lost ground!
The
gun bans being passed in places like New York, Colorado, Maryland
and other liberal strongholds are just the first wave.
Now these anti-Freedom zealots are going
from state to state -- probing for weak spots to gain more ground and
eventually criminalize one of our most precious freedoms -- the right to keep
and bear arms.
We, and a
few other groups like the NRA and Gun Owners of America have suddenly become
the thin blue line that stands between living as free citizens... or living as
subjects under
"King
Obama."
We
need your help to continue to reinforce that thin line of resistance, my
friend. Will you declare yourself a free citizen right now by [requesting,]
signing and rushing back your DECLARATION
OF FREEDOM as soon as possible? Today?
If
you will, you will help build a groundswell of peaceful resistance against the
assault on the Constitution and our God-given freedom to protect ourselves.
I am
trying to gather 1 million of these documents to put the occupants of EVERY
STATEHOUSE IN THE COUNTRY on notice... I want them forewarned that the voices
of one million dedicated and activated patriots will be delivered straight to
their doorstep if they have any intention of going the way of New York, Colorado or Maryland... and we won't come quietly.
In
fact, I would like to deliver massive piles of signed DECLARATION OF FREEDOM documents by special courier to every state
house... and have them dropped with a loud THUD right under the high brows and
noses of these Governors and state legislators who think they know better than
the rest of us.
My
friend, I can't think of a better tool than our DECLARATION OF FREEDOM Campaign to send a clear and overdue
reminder of who these fat-cat politicians are accountable to -- the PEOPLE!
We'll
also be sending the same message to Washington -- where some weak-kneed politicians are painfully
aware that the next election is just around the corner.
Will
you help us send this critical message to every state and to the highest
officials in Washington? Will you [request for and] sign your DECLARATION OF FREEDOM and rush it back
to me today?
I
need your help to deliver 1 million signed DECLARATIONS OF FREEDOM documents to
critical destinations over the next 90 days to make it clear that the American
People DO NOT support what these gun-grabbers politicians are doing in state
after state.
But
in order to gather 1 million signatures, I must print, stuff and mail out at
least 3 million letters just like this one. The expense of an effort like this
is astounding -- we have calculated that it will cost almost $1,350,000. I know
that sounds like a lot -- and it is -- but we are able to get every one of
these DECLARATION OF FREEDOM documents out for about 45 cents each -- an
incredible bargain.
So
what do you say? Are you with us? Are
you a CITIZEN or a SUBJECT?
If
you do not simply want to stand aside and wait for somebody else to fight this
battle, then don't wait another minute. Sign
your DECLARATION OF FREEDOM, stuff it in your special FREEDOM ENVELOPE and
rush it back to me as soon as you can.
I
will be proud to have your DECLARATION OF FREEDOM added to mine and about
217,000 others who have already taken a stand for freedom and the Constitution
by helping us at the American Civil Rights Union. And when you've signed your
DECLARATION OF FREEDOM and placed it in your FREEDOM ENVELOPE, I hope you'll
pause and think about helping with a one-time financial contribution of $35.
Your
one-time gift... will pay for 78 DECLARATION OF FREEDOM documents to be
printed, processed and mailed! And if only half of the friends we reach out to
respond with a $35 gift of their own, we suddenly have the opportunity to reach
3,000 more American patriots who also refuse to be treated as "subjects"
instead of full "citizens" in America!.
Suddenly
-- that 1 million number doesn't seem so impossible,
does it? It's not my friend. America and the ACLU have faced challenges like this before,
and I've seen the American people come together to do great things when liberty
is at stake.
My
friend, the fact is our liberty is under relentless attack by power-hungry,
anti-freedom politicians who see the chance at a political victory they've
lusted for since they were hippies in college... finally defeating the Second
Amendment, and ultimately disarming the American people.
They'll take every one of your
Constitutional Freedoms away from you if you let them.
Because
every right you have is a part of your life they can't control! The American
Civil Rights Union has vowed to stop them. And we will do all we can to hold
true to that VOW. But we really want you to join us in this fight.
All
it will cost is your signature on this DECLARATION OF FREEDOM and, if you can
afford to send one, a gift of $35, $50, $100 or whatever you can offer.
Not
doing anything in response to my letter today will cost you much more in the
long run, though. It could cost you one of your most precious Constitutional Rights --
the RIGHT to keep and bear arms.
I
know I'm asking a lot of you today, but we honestly don't have any choice.
Please help. Please sign your DECLARATION OF FREEDOM and rush it back to me
with your one-time gift of $35, $50, $100, $250, $500 or even $1,000 or more.
I
simply ask that you do what you can for America and the Second Amendment. I don't expect anyone to
write a check for $1,350,000, but your $35 is a critical part of that total.
Thank
you so much for taking the time to read my letter, and for bravely standing up
as a Free Citizen -- while we still can.
God
Bless You, and God Bless America!
Sincerely,
Susan
A. Carleson, Chairman
American Civil Rights Union
P.S. Please
[request and] sign your DECLARATION OF
FREEDOM and rush it back to me in the special FREEDOM ENVELOPE I've
enclosed for you to use. And please help with as much as you can. If you can
help with a significantly larger gift of $1,000 or more, this would be the
perfect time to send it, as it would take us one giant step closer to hitting
our goal of 1 million signed DECLARATION OF FREEDOM documents. Please just do
what you can. For now, I would just like to thank you for reading my letter and
being a part of this stand for freedom. God Bless (ACRU, P.O. Box 96189, Washington, D.C. 20090-6189)!
