A town hall on gun control featuring Congresswoman Haley Stevens ended early as tempers flared and the arguing turned to shouting Tuesday.
It was held at the Multi Lakes Conservation Association and organizers were not transparent as to what the town hall would be about when it was booked at the club. Many of the members did not find out until recently that it would be about guns and gun control.
The goal was to find common ground on solutions to gun violence, but organizers found how wide the rift between some gun owners and pro-gun control advocates really is.
"This is why the NRA has got to go," shouted Rep. Haley Stevens (D-11th District). "The NRA has got to go."
Stevens, State House Democratic Leader Christine Greig and State Rep. Robert Wittenberg (D-Berkley) led the town hall at the conservation club where many of its members are gun owners.
The conversation, ironically, took place in the club's indoor gun range.
Because, how could anyone agree that the NRA has to go...
Anyhow...what's the equivalent, having a pro RKBA rally at a school or Courthouse? (not really...those should be our strongholds)

"Avarice, ambition, revenge and licentiousness would break the strongest cords of our Constitution, as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." John Adams to Mass Militia 10-11-1798
This was no oversight, this was intentional. They knew exactly what they were doing. They even went to far as to LIE about who they were when they booked the hall. They WANTED a confrontation.

Samuel Adams wrote:If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.
