Though I suppose the legal fees are what keeps anyone from embarking upon that particular journey.

Is there any reason someone couldn't start a collection for a legal fund for this? MG and potential MG buyers are fairly affluent and I bet it would top 7 figures pretty easily.
Throwing this in as evidence in that case could potentially be a heck of a bombshell for our side.
 
If it didnt pass per the Constitution, as far as that amendment the amendment is null and void regardless if the bill was passed w/ it in there, that amendment did not pass so its invalid

I'd love to see them work together too. If they did they'd be unstoppable, unfortunately they currently mix like oil and water.

Then they should emulsify and tear down NFA 1934. :)
 
The NRA doesnt give a damn about the NFA crowd and so alot of us dont give a damn about the NRA.
 
MrM4:

Respectfully,

The NRA has warts, and I'd be the last to say otherwise, but the truth is the NRA IS the only 800lb Gorilla in the room in The U.S. when it comes to the largest organization that stands up for our 2nd Amendment rights.

And has been for almost 140 years.

That gets my $25.00 membership fee each year.

No offense,

Jesse
 
Video of the Hughes Amendment vote brings to mind the old quote "Laws are like sausages, it is better not to see them being made." -- Otto von Bismarck

With what do we compare a bad law?

From the "control" side, the NFA machine gun registry was a "good" law: 1934 to 1986, ~125,000 machine guns were registered to civilian owners, with one violent crime (by a corrupt police officer) with a legally-registered machinegun. The Hughes Amendment demonstrates that "reasonable" to the gun control crowd is to ban whatever they think they can get away with banning in any underhanded way they can do it.
 
I hope this is ok to post, I'm not sure what the policy is regarding soliciting for donations.

The price quote is here, Looks like I need to find $391.25 to get the full two reels that will cover the initial vote, shenanigans, and the FOPA passage.

I currently have a zero balance in my paypal account so I can use that to collect contributions, with everything that shows up being put towards this project.

If you'd like to kick in a few bucks towards the project, my paypal address is EDITED, ALL FUNDS RAISED!!!and yes, I know paypal sucks, but it is what I've got already in place that can be used immediately to make this happen.

I'll keep this thread posted with updates and totals, Please include a note if you would like your contribution to remain anonymous.


I will not be keeping any funds not needed to cover the exact cost of obtaining footage.

I just kicked in $10. I'm hurting for cash, but this is a decent cause, if only to have physical copies of the footage. I assume you'll be able to eventually get the footage online and widespread? If so, I'd love to have the salient parts on my YouTube channel for reference. Might get seen a bit, I have about 3,000,000 views thus far. :)
 
Thank you,

Full footage will be uploaded to youtube, DVD's will be made available for 'research and archival purposes' via some of the gunnies who have offered their time/services to make sure hard copy gets distributed as well.

Note: according to the LOC duplication agreements, I can't use this footage for 'commercial or political purposes'

and I believe that also will bind anyone I give it to.

That said, don't use it to endorse any candidates, or promote a political party, and don't sell any copies for profit.

I sure did! Worthy cause for my hard-earned money. At least working for money can go to a cause that may well further my freedom. I hope, one day, we're a free nation again. :)
 
Maybe we should demand an amnesty for our "undocumented" NFA items as a compromise for the undocumented immigrant amnesty. :evil:
 
wally,

Unfortunately, the wording of the Hughes amendment doesn't allow for an amnesty. At all. :(

I'm going to inform the AR15 donor that we only need $42.42, not the full $100 he offered to make this happen.

I think we may have this handled guys!

the 2A community is amazing.... I can think of no other group of people who pull togeather to make things happen the way you guys do.

Please correct me if I have made a math error, or recorded your donation inccorectly.
 
PS. Thank you to all of those who have posted or PM'd me offering to cover any outstanding ballance.

If any problems arise with the current planned funding I will be sure to contact you, but as of now I think we have it covered.

You guys are amazing.

Marc
