Thank you everyone. Along with the journey to get here, this will be something I'll never forget.

Many thanks to all of the instructors from Texas, Louisiana, Wisconsin, Oklahoma, and the rest of the country for all the help and leadership along the way. And, thank you Fred, for starting and continually driving the mission we are all striving to achieve.

We owe it to the Founders. We owe it to our forefathers. And, we owe it to our posterity.

Let's make it happen!

"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."  one who has not qualified himself with the M-16 may not be considered to be a responsible citizen."

—Jeff Cooper, The Art of the Rifle

"Terrorism is the best political weapon, for nothing drives people harder than a fear of sudden death."
-- Adolf Hitler (1889-1945) German Nazi Dictator
 

"Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in
