Sorry it took me so long to post again, but it has been a whirlwind during and after the rally. Thank you to all that came out and special thanks to Fusion Security, the Dallas Tea Party, comp73, theannoyedman, and andyc for their help in the setup and execution of the recue and the rally. It don't know what I would have done without you.

Thank you to Pastor Brooden and Bishop Lawson for their powerful speeches at the end.

With the help of those mentioned above, look for much more activity from The Right Group. A new and improved webite is on its way, thanks to theannoyedman and more activity with gun rescues are being planned with Fusion Security and comp73. The next issues that will be pushed are concealed carry on campus and open carry with support from the Dallas Tea Party.

The only real weapon that we have against what is hapening is our voice. It was lound and clear Saturday so let's keep up the momentum and hit them again.

We will not go quietly into the night!

I've contacted the DPD about the serial number checks and they said they would call me back. No call yet.

The site will not let me message you. I would like to ask if you would be willing to help in certain ways. PM me if possible please. I would consider it an honor if you did.

Here is the schedule.

10am to 2pm - Firearm Marketplace. All firearms that people wish to allow us to adopt will be sold to the peron of of the sellers choice as they come in. The transaction itself will be between the buyer and the owner of the firearm. This seems to be the way to handle it in order for all to have an equal shot at obtaining a firearm and have fun at the same time. We will have pre-printed bills of sale for those who wish to have one

2pm to 3 or 4pm - 2nd Amendment Rally. We have a few guest speakers lined up to address Constitutional issues and future plans for the movement.

The Dallas Police have thus far shown zero interest in checking serial numbers on the firearms to be sold. If they do decide to help, the serial numbers on all firearms will be checked BEFORE the firearm is sold. This way no one will be out any money.

I hope the story that CBS ran does not discourage people from coming. This will be a great way to support what we believe, as well as keep some decent firearms safe from those that hope to destroy them.

Parking will be available to the immediate south and west for two dollars (the lots are owned by others) if the lot we leased is full.

The mini market place quote is not what was said and they completely skipped the rally part of the deal but that is to be somewhat expected. I do, however, hope that some firearms can be saved from the church and I think that there are others that share this sentiment.

The news reported the sensational aspect of the rally and left out the rest. It did get the rally quite a bit of publicity and I don't see where that is a bad thing.

Is it a rally to show support for the second amendment, that we don't share the same views as this president/king and his goblins do. That we will not sit back and have are rights stripped from us...... or is this a group of guys/gals who want to try and buy some guns at a good price that would otherwise be destroyed.

I'm all for buying some guns at a good price dont get me wrong but this is not my intention coming to this event. I think the media will cover this in a way which will paint us as a bunch of crazies taking advantage of the "loophole" if this is what the event is about. I live in dallas. I work in dallas. I talk to 100's of people everyday from dallas and for the most part these people think obama is the greatest thing ever to happen to this country(I know I know, we know otherwise) and agree with every word that he speaks. I'm not saying alll of dallas thinks this by any means but the people I talk to full support anything he wants. I would like to sway those people on the fence to are side if possible but I dont think that will happen if all they see is guns being bought/sold left and right.

So I guess I'm just trying to figure out what this thing is really about...

Its about both. I am making signs that show that we have already been checked by the FBI and DPS and are exempt from federal background checks as it is in order to minimize that bad press. At first the only plan was to buy the firearms, but now its a show of support for the most part and if we can save a few in the process, so be it.

Excellent! I look forward to meeting you.

Anyone that can make it, the planning meeting is tonight at Breadwinners Uptown Dallas. Any help in making this as successful as possible would be appreciated.

Anyone that would like an active role in this gun rescue is welcome to attend. I look forward to meeting with you.

This invitation has not been sent to any other sites. I would prefer that the level heads that are usually here be involved in the details.

Aside from the risk of buying something with hidden damage, I'd be worried about buying something that's stolen. I suppose if you require a BoS, that anyone with a stolen gun would be more likely to choose the no-questions-asked Church offer, but, nobody ever said thieves were all smart.

Does seem like a good way to make a few bucks and keep a few guns from the crusher.

As for the GunShow Loophole argument... If all the BUYERS are CHL, NICS is pre-verified.
The media should be saying "Licensed Gun Owners Save Sellers from a Raw Deal".

I am with you in beliefs and know that I am legally able to buy them with my CHL. Wont stop certain media outlets for using this as an example for the info they wish to publish or show.

I wonder if an officer might be able to call in numbers for a quick check, on the spot?

I planned on printing a few bills of sale to take there. Not sure about DPD helping. I figured the bill of sale would discourage stolen guns though. I like the idea of CHL only purchasing.

We could buy some nice firearms maybe!!

Anyone ever tried to crash an event like this to offer better terms?
Seems it COULD be a way to selectively purchase some good deals.... Or are the "sellers" smart enough to only turn in dysfunctional relics?

Michigan open carry inc did this once and they claimed it was successful. Search gun rescue Detroit. There is one outdoor site that ran the story. http://www.outdoorlife.com/blogs/gun-sh ... ck-detroit" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Edit for link.

There is also a picture of a previous years haul from the church http://thescoopblog.dallasnews.com/2013 ... town.html/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I would like to setup a meeting on Thursday to discuss logistics and planning. Maybe at a restaurant in the mid cities or Arlington? I'm open to suggestions.

WFAA, Fox and NBC all expressed interest in covering the event so it is Paramount that we show them that we are responsible firearm owners.

Any volunteers to help plan, message me and we can set up a place to meet.

I look forward to meeting the people I've read about for so long.
