Spead the word

Regular readers: If you agree that mainstream press coverage of the gun rights issue demands a counter-balance, please help me spread the word by sharing Gun Rights Examiner links with your friends via emails, and in online discussion boards, blogs, social media sites, etc.  Then get more commentary at The War on Guns: Notes from the Resistance.

While many of our countrymen prepare for frivolous group revelry, gun owners should prepare for more useful and consequential considerations for the coming year.
