Gun Control & RKBA
Related: About this forumRemember POW-MIA bracelets. We should start a national campaign
similar to this. The bracelet should have the name of an American who was killed in a mass or random shooting by a gun nut and we could wear them until there are changes made by the US Congress. It might take some of the wind out of the sails of the AR-15 pin wearers.
