Gene and Barry Wensel Defend the 2nd Amendment
« on: January 23, 2013, 08:48:00 AM »
Gene and I will not be attending the ESOS in Harrisburg, Pa. as featured speakers this year unless show management reverses their decision and supports our 2nd. Amendment Rights. My apologies to all we were looking forward to seeing and speaking with. Thanks for your support. BW
Hope all of us can support Barry and Gene for dropping out of The Eastern Sportsman Show in Pa.. As we all know how much they give to our Trad Sport. This show was one of the largest sportsman show in the country and was not cheap to have a booth. They dropped out by defending our 2nd amendment. Please support there business for supporting all of us. Thank you, Craig.

I know this subject is not Trad but thanks to them for standing up for what they believe in. Too many people today do that only when it does not effect them personally or their business. We need more people who stand up for what they believe in no matter what.

Good for Barry and Gene as well as all the other people and businesses that are dropping out and boycotting that show.I have been keeping up with this for the last couple of days.As of yesterday there were at least 160 different vendors and people that have dropped out.The numbers keep going up as more people and more businesses are stepping up to help protect our 2nd Amendment rights.I am very glad and appreciative to see this thread informing people of what is going on allowed on this forum.Thanks Terry.

Good job guys! Just got done with my weekly phone calls to my congressmen and senators offices...not a very political person...but I vote purely based on historic 2nd Ammendment support and decision making and make it clear to all of them on a weekly basis. It is good to see that businesses and larger groups are recognizing that this proposed ban is not about protecting kids at all and just an opportune time to exercise "their" ultimate goal of a complete ban. Thank you for stepping up at a great sacrifice!
