You can start by firing the Parliamentarian & eliminating a nearly 100 year old infringement on our Second Amendment rights!
The goals of this bill are a safer, stronger, and more prosperous America.

“When they promised the right to freedom of speech, they had handmade newspapers. So, yeah, everyone should have equal rights to paper, ink, and a printing press.”
Cool. Trump Admin, have him arrested for speaking into a microphone. If he complains that that's a violation of his rights, say he is free to use all methods of free speech available in 1791 only.

VCDL and GOA attorneys were in court today on a motion to expand who is enjoined by our lawsuit on the “assault firearm” ban. When we have the court’s ruling, we will advise.

As promised. I’ve been working with MT Leg. Republicans on a bill to REPEAL all Montana state laws requiring ATF Form 4 tax stamps for suppressors, SBRs and SBSs in Montana. Kudos to Senators Wylie Galt and Carl Glimm, and Rep. Braxton Mitchell.

We could just get rid of NFA and ATF altogether, seeing that they only exist to punish law-abiding gun owners.

Imagine how much more effective they would be if they hadn’t given up their right to bear arms…

Singing “Aux armes, citoyennes!” while marching down the street while unarmed is quite ironic.

Let’s check in on France and see how the disarmament of the local population coupled with an invasion of foreign military aged men is working out…
BREAKING: French police have encountered rioters and looters armed with AK47s and Scorpion submachine guns on the streets of Paris, Marseille and Lyon. The information comes from the Le Journal du Dimanche journalist Laura Tchekov, who says that her newspaper has received this information from sources within the DGSI, France’s main internal security agency. The weapons were carried by minors and young adults described as being part of organized crime groups but sometimes also close to the Islamist movement in France. The journalist says that not all armed rioters were arrested and that several of them remain on free foot. It’s believed that police officers refrained from making arrests as they thought they could be both outmanned and outgunned at the moment and that hundreds of people were on the streets, creating a risk of a shoot-out that could have resulted in a large number of wounded and dead.

My lifelong support for draconian gun control laws was weakened during the 2020 riots when, watching helicopter footage of mobs roaming freely through Philly neighborhoods and attempting to enter homes, a journalist reported that homeowners had told him that when they called police begging for protection they were told that law enforcement personnel were overwhelmed and homeowners were "on their own."

Which way modern man?
A French woman who supported France’s left wing government and the protests asks why left wing protesters are looting her store. It’s a perfect distillation of left wing decisions, this is where it all leads.

Don’t ever give up your right to bear arms. The French did, and look where it got them!

I have a sub machine gun in my lap while watching Wisconsin football. I can’t comprehend this.
Nous sommes samedi soir et je suis retranché seul chez moi, en panique totale, à réfléchir à quel objet ou arme utiliser pour me défendre si mon immeuble est pris d’assaut. Les hurlements d’horreur, les sirènes, les bruits d’explosion… Je ne souhaite à personne de vivre ça.

Democrats use tragedies and the deaths of children to advance their political agendas (and in this case get out the vote). But they won’t tell you that federal and state gun control failed or that a good guy with a gun had to save the day despite the Gun Free School Zones Act.
Read this article about the childrens' lives that have been forever changed by 3 minutes of terror. Then go down to your early voting site and vote out every politician who cares more about the gun industry than our kids. cnn.com/2026/10/17/us/bend-o…
