I am sure that most people here have heard of the Second Amendment Sisters (SAS), but I just wanted to post this topic for those who don't know about them.
SAS is a non-profit organization that relies, like the NRA, on its members contributions. Unlike the BS anti-gunners groups like the Brady Bunch, etc., all of SAS's leaders work on a purely voluntarily basis. Nobody gets paid. They do a damned good job of making the MMM's look like the buttheads that the really are. They embrace firearms ownership and self-protection, and they hold rallies.
They do it all on donations. Rarely do they ask for money. My wife and I have been members now for over a year, and I can truly say that SAS is one of the most impressive pro-gun organizations that I have seen.
Of course, they get next to no media attention. At the last MMM gathering in DC, the ignorant MMM's trashed the SAS tables, threw their flyers and hand-outs in the dumpsters (while the SAS ladies were getting more supplies from their vans), and yelled and screamed threats at them. The DC police, who, it was said, thought the SAS members were much better informed and better behaved, had to be called in.
Anyway, I would like to ask our members here to support SAS just like we support the NRA and GOA. They need all the members and donations that they can get.
Check them out on the web at www.2asisters.org. Get your wives and daughters to participate... Men can join too (I am a proud member of SAS) Join them or by writing or calling them. Here is their contact info:
