Thanks!

It's not just Hispanics. I know a lot of other folks much more interested in CCW after these awful attacks. I think its an intelligent and rational course of action.

:iagree: totally. If there were a huge influx of new LTC holders, then the people who contemplate mass murders could perhaps be stopped a LOT sooner from doing more harm on innocents.

I have believed for a long time that the only way to halt the attack on our freedom and 2A rights is for an extremely vocal group of “diverse” (prog word) 2A patriots to lead the fight by focusing on the racist roots of gun control and expose the truth about the socialist commie left.

:iagree: Every citizen who values their liberty and freedom, regardless of race, sex, age, politics, religion, etc should be united in insisting that the government not infringe upon their right to self defense.
