Backup has arrived :)

If you’re not familiar with them, they’re my new buddies (I helped them out a few weeks ago)

The Utah Gun Exchange (UGE) has kicked off its Freedom Tour and the group is driving around the United States in a military armored personnel carrier defending Americans’ right to bear arms.

 

“We’re fighting to preserve and protect those values and those constitutional principals that made this republic great. The products and services that we deal in are prescribed in the constitution of the United States of America,” Bryan Melchior, co-owner of UGE explained. “And any time when a culture or civilization decided that there was something wrong with that, something went wrong with that culture. Something went wrong with that civilization.”

 

“It’s our mission in life to protect and preserve our lives, our posterity. If we don’t have a Second Amendment, we don’t have a country,” Melchior continued.

 

UGE has had a few hiccups during the tour, with almost every place they have been generating a police presence. The team was held in Illinois for six hours, then had their property confiscated in New York, and their vehicle was even vandalized in Utah during a town hall with the anti-gun Parkland students.

 

“All you have to do is stand here and wait long enough and [the police] will be here,” Melchior told The Daily Caller News Foundation. (RELATED: Exclusive: Gun Group Detained By NYPD And Had Property Confiscated For Minor Citation At Pride Parade)

 

The group is headed next to the Big Pro-Gun Rally in Tallahassee on July 28. Afterwards, they will traverse the U.S.-Mexico border with Vice News.

 

In addition to a firearms marketplace, Utah Gun Exchange is a media company that builds platforms like UGETube that seeks to be a substitute for media companies like YouTube that censor content and advertisers.

You give the antis an inch and they take a mile.

 

Yes, it's what they always do. PVSA caved by not allowing tactical rifles this summer, and DuPage County Fairgrounds doubled up by adding even more restrictions. It's what happens every time you cave to an anti on any point; they just move to the next item on their list to ban or demonize.

Most of the gun owners I know won't get anymore involved than which store has ammo on sale. They just don't get it.

It’s really sad, but these are the same A-holes that will be the first to say “what happened” when it gets even worse

I know people, gun owners, who want to purchase ARs and such to further the hobby, who aren't even registered to vote! When I push on it the response I get is "All the politicians suck and what difference does it make?" ...smh...spot on that they will be the first to b*tch and moan when rights are taken away.

Ding, ding ding!!!! The truth winner. Antis go after rights one small bite at a time. So little sometimes, that people barely notice- until they chew away ALL your gun rights. Make no mistake, they will NOT stop, until guns are banned completely AND confiscated.

 

It's not paranoia if people are actually out to get you.

I didn’t get any responses to any emails I sent. Made it get lots of hits on twitter, but this battle is lost. DuPage county fairgrounds in on my Do Not Ever Go There Again list

Have no plans to attend anything there in the future. Would be interested in knowing if attendance drops for their civil war and CADA shows.

I also sent a polite email letting them know my concern with their decision. No response at all... :(
