Million Gun March

Gun owners, arise!

Cast off your complacent nature.

Come out of your fortified homes.

You are been vilified by the actions of only a few (thousand). You are being labeled as purveyors of violence, corruptors of civilization, destroyers of peace, and perpetuators of outdated American myths.

The time has come to step out of the shadows cast by criminals and show your neighbors who you are. Time to come out of your gun closets and display your pride.

It is time to march. To march to Washington, D.C. And awake the nation to the glory, freedom, and power of guns for good!

What is the true power of guns? Show them. Show that you can assemble one million people with one million guns on the National Mall and have hardly any murders, suicides, and armed robberies. Show them the effect on the crime rate in the District when a million visitors, armed against aggression, are added to its population for a weekend.

When should you march? April 19, 2013, the 238^th anniversary of the finest display of the value of the armed citizen in our nation's history. Remind all Americans who answers the call when our country needs you. Who is there the minute trouble starts? The citizen. Who is there when there is not time to wait for police or the army? The citizen. Enshrined in the Constitution defining our nation is the recognition of the necessity of the armed citizen to preserve our security. Remember that and march to remind everyone else!

There is no right in the Constitution to be a criminal, no right to be a lunatic. But guns do not make criminals and lunatics – they only enable them. March to the National Mall with your heads and your guns held high to demonstrate your sanity and allegiance to the founding principles of this great nation.

Assemble, gun owners! March!

[Unfortunately, I do not own a gun, so you will not be seeing me in your patriotic crowd. But have a good time – April is lovely in DC. Oh, and remember if somebody yells “Duck”, it might not mean an opportunity to hunt waterfowl.]
