A Message from the Founder
Well, folks, the Second Amendment March is now less than 100 days away, and I can feel the momentum building, swelling, growing like a live organism beneath my feet. I feel as if I've been pushing on a giant rock for the past ten months, pushing as hard as I can for all I'm worth. Pushing when I'm tired. Pushing when I'm sore. And pushing when I'm discouraged. But I have good news for you. Last week I pushed and the rock moved. And not just a little, but a lot!
Last week we added our first two corporate sponsors: United States Concealed Carry Association and Front Sight Firearms Institute.
I'd like all of you to consider joining United States Concealed Carry Association. They have a top-of-the-line magazine plus email tips and great articles to help you in your concealed carry journey through life. They are a great organization with a great radio show as well. (
www.armedamericanradio.com) Check them out at
www.usconcealedcarry.com.
If you need firearms training, then you should consider taking an excellent course from Front Sight near Las Vegas, Nevada. Check out their website at
www.frontsight.com. Front Sight gives excellent training and you can get a great price if you purchase one of our training class certificates through the Second Amendment March online store. (

I'd also like to take a moment to thank Larry Pratt from Gun Owners of America for all the help he's given us. (
www.gunowners.org) GOA is the premier no-compromise gun rights organization in America. You can join and also help out Second Amendment March in the process by going to our online store.
So, as you can see, the rock moved last week, and next week I expect it to move even further. I'll be at the infamous SHOT show (
www.shotshow.org) all next week talking to the movers and shakers of the Shooting, Hunting, and Outdoors Trade industry, trying to glean even more support for the Second Amendment March. If any of you will be there and wish to meet up for coffee, just give me a call at 269-838-5586.
God bless you all and thanks again for helping me move that giant rock!

The County Sheriff: America's Last Hope
Sheriff Mack's newest book covers decades of research to prove once and for all that the sheriffs in this country are indeed the ultimate law authority in their respective jurisdictions. The sheriff absolutely has the power and responsiblity to defend his citizens against all enemies, including those from our own Federal Government. History, case law, common law and common sense all show clear evidence that the sheriff is the people's protector in all issues of injustice and is responsible for keeping the peace in all matters. He is the last line of defense for his constituents; he is America's last hope to regain our forgotten freedom. This short but powerful book is a must read for all citizens, sheriffs, and government officials that we may all work to return America to the constitutional republic she was meant to be. Amazing as it might be, the sheriff can make this happen!

They tell it like it is with candor and compassion, speaking through both experience and well-thought-out-research. If you're serious about protecting your family, this is the one book you MUST read!

It takes a substantial amount of money to organize an event like Second Amendment March. Our fundraising advisors have set specific milestones that we need to meet in order to make the march happen.

Our Mission
The mission of the Second Amendment March is to galvanize the courage and resolve of Americans; to petition our elected officials against establishing anti-gun legislation; and to remind America that the Second Amendment is necessary to maintain our right to self defense.
It is the one right that protects all others.
We will accomplish our mission by a centralized, peaceful march in Washington DC, the United States Capitol, supported by satellite marches to State Capitols and other cities all across America.
