Democrats? For the Second Amendment? Isn't that an
oxymoron? While the modern Democratic Party leadership tends to be anti-gun, a
growing number of people are realizing that gun ownership is an important right of all
law-abiding Americans. Democrats for the 2nd Amendment is the primary sponsor of Cease Fear.
Doctors for Responsible Gun Ownership (DRGO) is a project of The
Claremont Institute launched in late 1994. Headed by Dr. Tim Wheeler, a southern
California surgeon, DRGO has become a nationwide network of over 1,000 physicians and
other health professionals who support the safe and lawful use of firearms. Why
would a group of doctors be concerned with firearms? Because social activists in the
medical and public health fields have used their authority to misrepresent gun ownership
as a disease. And their treatment for this new "disease" is to ban gun ownership
by regular citizens and a public health prescription starkly opposed to the American
Founders' vision of freedom and responsibility. To learn more about DRGO go to The
Claremont Institute's web site ( www.claremont.org
) and click on DRGO. Or click on Publications, then Second Amendment to read the
editorials. If you are a health care professional you must join DRGO and let the
world know that guns are not a disease.
The Firearms Coalition web site calls itself "The Firearms Hard
Corps Home Page". The web is home to the "Hard Corps Report" an
online version of their bimonthly newsletter as well as "The Firearms Coalition
Legislative Alerts Log" and the writings of Keal Knox a very vocal critic of the
current NRA board.
Gun Owners of America (GOA) known as "The only no-compromise gun lobby in Washington." Gun Owners of America (GOA) is a non-profit lobbying organization formed in 1975 to preserve and defend the Second Amendment rights of gun owners. GOA sees firearms ownership as a freedom issue. From state legislatures and city councils to the United States Congress and the White House, GOA represents the views of gun owners whenever their rights are threatened. GOA has never wavered from its mission to defend the Second Amendment-- liberty's freedom teeth, as George Washington called it. As an example, GOA fought for and won, the right of gun owners to sue and recover damages from the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (BATF) for harassment and unlawful seizure of firearms. The GOA Web Site includes Legislative Alerts, the Congressional Voting Records on Firearms Legislation, information on Firearms Legislation before Congress, GOA Ratings for the 106th Congress, Contact Info for the 106th Congress and much more. This is one of the best if not the best RKBA organizations in the USA.
The Independence Institute The Independence Institute is established upon the eternal truths of
the Declaration of Independence. Founded in 1985, the Independence Institute is a
non-partisan, non-profit public policy research organization dedicated to providing timely
information to concerned citizens, government officials, and public opinion leaders. The
Second Amendment is well covered in their Criminal
Justice and the Second Amendment section. Under the direction of Research
Director Dave Kopel, the Institute has examined the effects on concealed handgun laws,
mandatory minimum sentences, juvenile crimes, law enforcement behavior, and the
constitutional implications of crime proposals. Cited by the New York Times, U.S. News
& World Report, Time Magazine, the U.S. Senate, hundreds of newspapers throughout the
nation--and by Professor Lawrence Tribe's book American Constitutional Law, the
Independence Institute's research promotes public safety while respecting the Bill of
Rights, including the Second Amendment. They currently offer a $100.00 2nd Amendment Membership Package that
includes a wealth of great reference material and books on the RKBA. I highly
recommend membership and the material on the web site for any serious RKBA scholar or
activist.
