Freedom's Safest Place | Moms Like Me
Every day, millions of women and moms are willing to use a firearm to defend their families.
They are the majority, and it's time for the media to start telling their stories.
The National Rifle Association stands to fight for their rights.
The NRA is Freedom's Safest Place.

As someone stated:
"Since President Obama took office, over 100 million guns have been bought by Americans nationwide."
And yet, I'm supposed to believe that gun rights are in mortal danger, under relentless attack?
Seriously?

Maybe she thought her book Hands Off My Gun: Defeating the Plot to Disarm America wasn't selling too well and a little fear factor would help !
IF fear can sell guns, surely it can sell books !

A slogan;
Choose Fear; because reality often has a liberal bias

Some people, despite the facts, buy into the NRA's talking points regardless of the realities of the issue.
Obama had some strong words for a gun-store owner who confronted him at a town-hall event in Indiana
President Barack Obama stuck around after a PBS Newshour town hall in Elkhart, Indiana, on Wednesday to answer a few questions.
He had some strong words for a gun-store owner who asked him why he and Hillary Clinton, the Democratic presidential frontrunner, want to supposedly restrict and control the use of guns for the "good guys."
"First of all, the notion that I or Hillary or Democrats or whoever you want to choose are hell-bent on taking away folks’ guns is just not true," Obama said. "And I don’t care how many times the NRA says it."
Obama then claimed there have actually been more guns sold since he has been president than any time in US history. And it's true: Gun sales — based on the number of FBI criminal-background checks — increased by 65% over the period between 2008 and 2013, according to the Annenberg Public Policy Center.
Obama continued:
I just came from a meeting today in the Situation Room in which I got people who we know have been on ISIL Web sites, living here in the United States, U.S. citizens, and we’re allowed to put them on the no-fly list when it comes to airlines, but because of the National Rifle Association, I cannot prohibit those people from buying a gun.
This is somebody who is a known ISIL sympathizer. And if he wants to walk in to a gun store or a gun show right now and buy as much — as many weapons and ammo as he can, nothing’s prohibiting him from doing that, even though the FBI knows who that person is.
"So, sir, I just have to say, respectfully, that there is a way for us to have common sense gun laws," Obama said. "... but the only way we’re going to do that is if we don’t have a situation in which anything that is proposed is viewed as some tyrannical destruction of the Second Amendment."
