The anti-gunners' plan for self-defense? Whistles and hockey pucks. Even worse than gun control and disarmament is to disarm people and then give them a false sense of security. 2A advocates understand that the only way for citizens to adequately protect themselves is to exercise their rights. Rather than relying on leaders who want to take our firearms away and defund our police, law-abiding citizens must have the ability to defend themselves from spiking crime. On this episode of the Minute Man Moment, Phil calls out anti-gun leaders for pushing ridiculous self-defense strategies like whistling at criminals or rushing active shooters while they plot to take firearms away from law-abiding citizens. GOA wants to know in the comments below: what's the worst advice you've ever received from an anti-gunner on how to protect yourself? --- Join GOA: https://donate.gunowners.org/youtube/ Like on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GunOwners/ Follow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gunownersofamerica/ Follow on Twitter: https://twitter.com/GunOwners

From the beginning, GOA and our grassroots have been clear: no gun control in VAWA. Take action: https://www.gunowners.org/na12162021/ However, 2 GOP Senators negotiated with our rights and cut a deal on VAWA, handing a huge gun control victory to the Biden administration. In this episode of Minute Man Moment, Phil walks through the negotiations and explains what these Senators’ compromise will mean for responsible gun owners like you.

Even though the United States is seeing record-setting numbers of new gun owners, this hasn't stopped the anti-gunners in Congress from threatening our Second Amendment rights. In fact, as Phil lays out in this episode of Minute Man Moment, these new statistics indicate that our entire no-compromise movement is changing. We should all be hopeful that more and more Americans are considering gun ownership as a means for recreation and self-protection, but we also must stand firm in our no-compromise position. While some gun owners themselves even believe in what they might call "common sense" gun control, we know firsthand that these negotiations and compromises lead to the infringement of our rights and potentially even gun confiscation. As we near the end of the year, GOA and our members have made incredible progress in protecting gun rights for citizens across the country. However, our fight is far from over and we will continue our progress in fighting in the courts, Congress, and with our fellow citizens to protect our no-compromise position. Watch this episode as Phil explains the importance of keeping up our fight and working to help first time gun owners and non-gun owners how important their Second Amendment rights are to our fundamental freedoms and liberty.

U.S. Representative and 2A warrior joins GOA's Phil Reboli for a can't-miss interview exposing the truth about red flag laws in the NDAA! Representative Roy and Phil walk through the process through which the NDAA was negotiated and the red flag gun confiscation orders included in the first version of the bill. As Representative Roy points out, our Second Amendment rights should never be used as bargaining chips, and especially not in backroom deals with shady politicians. Because of GOA's grassroots efforts and pro-gun advocates in Congress like Congressman Roy, we were able to win the fight against red flag laws and defend our rights. While this was a victory in the end, our fight is far from over. We need to hold anti-gun elected officials accountable for their votes on this, and demand that our natural rights remain protected.

Anti-gunners will stop at nothing to destroy the Second Amendment. Last week, anti-gun Democrats in the Senate attempted to pass Universal Background Checks in H.R. 8 while they thought nobody was paying attention. However, GOA immediately noticed and alerted our grassroots so we could take action. With your help, we protected gun owners across the country once again. Because of your emails and phone calls to U.S. Senators, we were able to put enough pressure on them to send U.S. Senator Chuck Grassley of Iowa to the Senate Floor to block this unconstitutional legislation from going to President Biden's desk. GOA will continue to fight on the front lines in Washington to protect your rights and keep our ear to the ground for any anti-gun sneak attacks on our Second Amendment. Thank you to those who helped our fight on H.R. 8 -- the future will be more free because of you.

The “plastic gun ban” is another massive time bomb just sitting there in federal law. And it will be reauthorized in the next couple of years — if we don’t stop it. The gun ban we’re talking about today supposedly outlaws “plastic guns,” but it was so poorly drafted, it’s potentially much broader. Our story begins following the election of 1986.

In this episode of Minute Man Moment, Phil gives the latest update on the ATF's plans for a national gun registry. A few weeks ago, GOA uncovered ATF internal documents showing an outrageous increase in firearm transaction records being collected from out-of-business FFLs. After we shared these documents with the Washington Free Beacon, dozens of other news outlets started spreading the word. GOA Spokeswoman, Antonia Okafor, also joined Tucker Carlson Tonight on Fox News to discuss the ATF's plans and what it means for eventual gun confiscation. Later in the episode, special guest and 2A warrior U.S. Representative Michael Cloud gives an update from Congress on what they're doing to fight these new gun control measures. Representative Cloud led over 50 pro-gun Members of Congress in sending a letter to the ATF demanding answers on this proposed rule. We are proud to work with elected officials like Representative Cloud to protect our Second Amendment at all levels of government - make sure you thank him in the comments!

ICYMI: We just won the anti-endorsement from "activist" David Hogg when he called GOA the "NRA on steroids." He's right -- GOA is an organization dedicated to a no-compromise position in protecting gun rights in Congress, in the courts, and in your communities. In this video, Phil lays out our priorities and some of our past victories for gun owners across the country. Through fighting the NFA, protecting personal property, lifting COVID firearm restrictions, and defeating anti-gunners like David Chipman, we have been on the front lines protecting the Second Amendment. GOA has also been fighting in the courts and in individual states, passing Constitutional Carry in 21 states, suing the anti-gun Biden administration, and winning a landmark bump stock case. At GOA, we know some things are non-negotiable. Watch the video for more.

In this week's episode of Minute Man Moment, Phil gives an update on what we're doing with our partners in Congress to fight ATF's plans for a national gun registry. To help us in our fight, Congressman Michael Cloud of Texas led 51 Members of Congress in sending a letter to the ATF demanding answers. If we don't all join together to fight these radical policies, this Administration will have our country on the path towards gun confiscation in no time. Later, Phil talks about a dangerous Biden nominee for Comptroller of the Currency, Saule Omarova. While Comptroller of the Currency is usually a boring job regulating banks, Joe Biden has nominated a radical anti-gunner who could use the full weight of the Treasury Department to wage war against the firearm industry and our Second Amendment.

NOT GUILTY ON ALL COUNTS! On this week's Minute Man Moment, Phil discusses the Kyle Rittenhouse verdict and the HUGE victory our country got for self-defense and Second Amendment rights. He also shares some excerpts from Erich Pratt's article on the case, which was featured in USA Today. If you haven't already heard, GOA will be awarding Kyle Rittenhouse with either an academic scholarship to help with his nursing ambitions OR an AR-15 as a thank you for his defense of gun rights. Because of his fight and willingness to stand up for self-defense rights at only 17 years old, law-abiding gun owners across the country will have their God-given rights protected.

GOA obtained ATF's internal documents outlining the 53.8 million paper records and 887,000 electronic records they have retained this fiscal year alone. While they stockpile Form 4473 records of firearms and gun owners, ATF and the Biden administration have also been working on proposed changes to existing laws that would keep gun records stored in perpetuity in West Virginia. The increase in Form 4473 record-keeping is only one aspect of ATF's gun-grabbing agenda. ATF's leaked internal documents also indicate that they have reached the final stage of their rulemaking process on their proposed ban of 10 to 40 million pistol braces. ATF's proposed rules will go further to restrict law-abiding gun owners from accessing homemade firearms by requiring gun parts to be regulated with background checks. In practice, this would mean that a law-abiding citizen could be subject to a dozen or more background checks for one firearm.

The prosecution’s logic: “you lose the right to self-defense when you’re the one who brought the gun.” The firearm was the only thing that saved Kyle Rittenhouse’s life. Law-abiding gun owners are not criminals. Kyle Rittenhouse using a firearm to LEGALLY defend himself is precisely why the Second Amendment is so important to protect.

After bravely serving our country and fighting for our freedoms, the last thing America's veterans deserve is having their rights violated. Especially on Veterans Day, GOA is dedicated to defending Second Amendment rights for our nation's heroes. Bureaucrats should never be responsible for determining if a veteran can possess a firearm.

State governments have been infringing on the rights of the people to bear arms for decades. But, today could be the beginning of the end for all of that. In this episode of Minute Man Moment, Phil walks through New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen. Currently, if you're a law-abiding citizen, New York State won't issue you a permit without what they call "proper cause." This means they can arbitrarily deny your right to carry a gun for protection, even if you have a clean record. This is a clear violation of the Second Amendment, which explicitly states that the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. GOA, GOF and the Heller Foundation have closely followed this landmark case and have also submitted amicus briefs to help the Supreme Court reach a no-compromise decision and support New York's gun owners by ruling against the State's gun-grabbing laws. If decided in our favor, this case could be the foundation to protect gun rights across the country for years to come. With this case, the Supreme Court has a chance to declare that Second Amendment rights are NOT second class rights.

GOA has teamed up with the Virginia Citizens Defense League to support pro-Second Amendment candidates in tomorrow’s local and statewide elections. Our efforts have included over $77,000 in digital ads and a texting campaign across the state to make sure gun owners know the dangers of not voting. A lot is at stake in this election, especially our gun rights and the safety of our families. Anti-gun Attorney General Mark Herring wants to release violent criminals in our community while gun-grabbing Terry McAuliffe wants to ban us from being able to protect ourselves with firearms. While they are protected by armed guards, they want you to be defenseless. In this election, you have the chance to vote for liberty over tyranny.

GOA is the only no-compromise gun rights organization fighting to protect the Second Amendment. With the help of our supporters and partners, we fight the anti-gunners in Congress and in the courts. On this special edition Halloween episode of Minute Man Moment, Phil talks about what our country would look like without GOA. Politicians would go unchecked, anti-gun laws would go unchallenged, and radical proposals, like red flag gun confiscation orders or a national gun registry, would put us on a path to total gun confiscation.

We've got another problem in Congress that you need to know about. The House Judiciary Committee is considering a red flag gun confiscation bill tomorrow in yet another attempt to infringe on our Second Amendment rights. In this episode of Minute Man Moment, Phil goes through the markup process and explains the different types of amendments each Representative could offer. As we work to defend gun rights, we need your help in battling this legislation that would take our firearms away and deny due process. Democrats in Congress have been working to erode our constitutional rights and enact their radical gun control agenda, but we can stop them.

Roy has been a loyal 2A warrior and a key partner in GOA's efforts to remove gun control measures. Because of his work and our grassroots, we have been able to achieve a major victory for gun owners across the country and hold members of Congress accountable for their votes.

Are U.S. Senators once again playing games and gambling with our Second Amendment rights? Yes, they are! Gun Owners of America has been fighting against the so-called Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) since 2019 due to the inclusion of red flag gun confiscation orders, and our fight continues in the 117th Congress. Though disguised as a bill to protect women, this legislation’s gun control measures fall short in achieving that goal. Instead, this legislation would serve as a way for the government to seize our guns, violate our constitutional rights, and implement Biden’s radical gun-grabbing agenda. We need YOU to take action and oppose H.R. 1620 before a bipartisan deal on gun control is struck. Gun-owning women do not want red flag gun confiscation orders - remind your Senators that gun rights are women’s rights!
