The Day Patriots Took the WA State Capitol. "Washington WILL stand. No more ground lost, no more quarter given. We will hold. We will not comply."

Washington state Three Percenters lead the way.
Yesterday’s stand, oddly enough, was born because of the aforementioned cowardice. So-called “gun rights groups” organized a “Rally for Your Rights” where folks against I-594 could come and listen to them talk about how they weren’t going to actually fight to repeal this unconstitutional law, but instead would try to offer a compromise to the legislature. These groups also, because they didn’t want to scare or offend anyone, asked that people leave their long guns at home and dress in business attire. Perception! they urged. Curb yourselves because otherwise you’ll scare the undecided legislators and make them not like us or vote the way we want.
They apparently never learned Liberty 101: The moment you allow your rights to be curbed because of someone else’s fear or offense you have lost the fight to keep your rights, for you have just shown the way to take them all.
Some of us, however, remember that lesson well…because we know the fates of those who forgot it. We are not subjects and our rights are not open to interpretation or other people’s feelings. If anything, the legislature should be afraid, because their job security depends on the people they have refused to serve.
So we came armed with long guns anyway.

Mr. Gottleib might as well take his thirty shekels, and go...well, you get the picture.

Thanks, Mike. With attribution to you, I'm borrowing this statement and using it in my campaign:
