If you need another reason to donate remember he went up to the ATF booth like this after they said you couldn't shoulder them.

Donated again today after watching a bit of the video. That is rough.

Reached out to Palmetto State Defense (NOT PSA) who he did a video with and a line of custom lowers.

I asked if they would restart those lowers and got an email back in a minute saying they already are.

According to the GoFundMe, Dougan's family is now tracking on the fundraiser. I posted my donation - I do hope they keep up updates so we know when he receives the funds.

Hopefully someone here can help them navigate the VA system and get him to a specialist in MS!

Sent Dugan some funds. He’s given a lot to the community. Carnik Con was genius, and his later work was much appreciated.

No fucking way. I was so pissed about missing out on the Carnik Con lowers back in the day! I'll take out a second mortgage for one of these, if I have to.

This moment was when I learned who Dugan Ashley was and immediately he had my respect. I didn’t learn about Carnik Con until quite a bit later. He’s always been the man.

There’s a stem cell therapy clinic in Panama he should try.

This video isn’t about MS but I’ve read it can help.

Donated. Will send more next week. He deserves it if anyone does.
The level of awareness he brought and his reach to young people on 2A issues is worth it.

Wow, that video was tough to watch. Praying that Dugan will get all the help he needs and have many more years to be there for his family.

I remember subscribing to Carnicon and excitedly watching new videos when they were released. Probably the best gun humor ever.

In the past couple years he has been doing these streams about what's going on in the world and where we're headed. I don't know that I'm convinced by all his conclusions and theories, but it really helped expand my worldview, and its fascinating to hear someone who's not trying to squeeze money out of anyone, just thinking for himself wherever it leads. I was always struck by how he seemed genuinely to want to help others weather the coming storm and prevent bloodshed. He always has come across to me as a extremely intelligent, funny, down to earth, compassionate guy.

Definitely gonna hit the gofundme and try to get a PSD lower!

I also emailed Jonathan (Dugan) with some resources. No idea if he'll qualify, but it's a direction to check.

If he’s at a 50% disability rating from the Va all of his treatments should be free. Don’t think MS is a presumptive for service in GWOT theaters, unfortunately.

I sent this link to the guy doing the GFM. I was talking to him yesterday on IG about doing an ARFCOM drive for Dugan once he got in contact with him to clear up the concerns on legitimacy.

Apparently ole Dugan Ashley is tough to get a hold of.

View Quote

Yeah I tried to contact him many months ago when I learned he had MS.

I don't think I ever found any real way to contact him other than messaging on his old accounts which didn't seem to work.

I am sure he is getting blasted with emails right now since he shared his email in that video.

Let me know how I can help.

I wouldn't mind spearheading this with Max and Dugan's family.

Dugan is currently in the hospital so please give him/family space/privacy / respect .

If anyone knows Dugan, they know he isn't a fan of money.
