I like this idea
I like it too. I would so back up a bill that proposed it as law. Heck it's worth a try.

Anyone that declares their house, place of business or any area a "gun free zone", they should be held liable for my safety. You heard it right...if I can legally carry a firearm in my state, but you force me to disarm and I become a victim, I (or my loved ones) should be able to sue you for Vicarious Liability or Wrongful Death.
Oops sorry I meant to add this part in as well.
I hate to see debates and disparaging comments on a firearms forum aimed at any one of the national organizations that are defending our second amendment rights. I am an NRA Life member and proud of it. Also a member of GOA for at least the last 10 years.
The latest statistics that I saw show something like 80 million gun owners in the US and approx. 4-5million NRA members. How anyone can be a firearms owner in the US and not an NRA member is beyond me. I guess it always comes down to the few.
For those too young to remember, the NRA was one of the leading forces in the Republican takeover of congress in 1994 as a result of the Clinton gun ban. They also provide training for Range Officers, provide legal support for ranges that are constantly under attack by frivolous lawsuits, sponsor matches at the regional and national level, publish a couple of really good (if you are interested in firearms) monthly magazines etc. etc.
As far as I know, America is still a free country so if you don't want to join the NRA that is your choice. But as I learned as a little boy, "if you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all."
I'll bet Australia and the Britts wish they would have had a NRA
The last post from riot kind of sums up why i don't give money to non profits.
Why do i want to pay someone's salary?
I do not like lobbying, i do not want to support it.
There really is a true disconnect between the american people and it's government.
Especially when people think the way to have their voices heard is to throw money to any group.
Don't they have the IRA??? They deal with firearms right????
What's the NRA doing to preserve your gun rights???
McDonald v. Chicago - there was also an NRA v. Chicago, but McDonald was the one chosen to go forward - case to get the Second Amendment incorporated under the 14th. PIVOTAL case...
Filed a brief - overwhelming bipartisan majority of the members of Congress and Senate have signed it...
<broken link removed>
How's that for starters???
Second Amendment Foundation is also strongly supporting the effort on McDonald.
GOA's still wringing its hands over the Health Care debate and hasn't said "boo" about McDonald that I've seen...
... and for the record...
Lifetime member of NRA
Lifetime member of GOA
Regularly support OFF and Second Amendment Foundation
How much pressure will the government need to apply to NRA, and GOA to get a list of every member for future confiscation. very little ???
will sites like this rollover without a whimper and give everyone of us away. Say anything negative here about OBAMA and one of the mods will chastise you in a heartbeat, how many members actually voted for that clown, many did , it is so pathetic, i puck at the thought.

After being encouraged by me, my girlfriend suggested exactly this at her work place. She's an engineer for a small company {<20 employees} who's office manager had a fit on learning she {girlfriend} was carrying at work. The office manger tried really hard to establish a no firearms office policy but was unsuccessful partly due to my supplying local ccw laws and links {courtesy of the NRA} to stories on the Oklahoma case of a company being sued for firing employees who had guns in their cars. And it probably didn't hurt that the CEO from California was fired and replace by a guy fron Texas
You're missing my point...even those cases you are citing are defensive. How about introducing bills FOR gun rights instead of trying to counter what they anti-gunners have done?
Well, for starters, if we didn't have any gun laws then we wouldn't need to keep sending them any money now would we? If we were all fine and dandy and able to shoot our guns without any registration or regulation, we wouldn't donate a dime to these causes to "fight for our 2nd Amendment rights". So again, I ask- what have they done for us?
They do just enough to stay rich, that's what they do...if you can't see that then I'm sorry for you.
Link to such an article, please?
Hmmm....
Links?
I've never read anything by anyone in NRA publications against feminism. In fact, quite the contrary:huh:
My Tom Boy, Vet Tech wife, my nurse daughter, my business owner daughter in law, and thousands of WOMEN NRA Members would probably like to discuss this comment of yours further if given the chance

Give Elizabeth Hellmann a call at the NRA
You betcha they do, and rightly so. Animal Rights Activism is anti-hunting which is anti-gun. They make no secret that they lobby against firearms ownership in this country and against hunting.
You, as a gun owner...What's the problem?
