At Saddle River Range, we are obviously strong supporters of the 2nd Amendment and the Constitution of the United States. That’s why when we received this message in our inbox from Marty Daniel of Daniel Defense, we wanted to share it with all of you:
Dear Second Amendment Supporters,
On November 8th, we all have some difficult decisions to make. The country is very much divided on which candidates best represent our values and beliefs…on which candidates will lead us into a bright and prosperous future or a dark and unpredictable one. But, unfortunately, instead of focusing on the issues, the narrative of this election has been primarily about character assassination or who’s leading who in the polls. So allow me a moment to break through the façade of this election and address one issue I believe is vital to ensuring a free and prosperous America: The Second Amendment.
The Second Amendment guarantees our right, as U.S. citizens, to keep and bear arms, yet it’s under a constant barrage of attacks. Many incumbents and challengers believe this important amendment is outdated and should be ripped from the Constitution, the very foundation of what makes this country a beacon of freedom to the entire world. But we cannot allow this to happen. We must make our voices heard and elect officials who have the moral fortitude to defend and uphold the Constitution of the United States of America.
In just a matter of days, you and I will be called upon to perform our civic duty by participating in the electoral process to decide our leadership. Regardless of whether or not you personally like or dislike the candidates seeking office, the only way your voice will matter is if you allow it to be heard.
Recently, Cindy and I had the honor and privilege of spending the day with a true American icon and patriot, Mr. Charlie Daniels. This remarkable man is a booming voice for patriotism, with a no-fear approach when speaking out in opposition to the tyranny of government and the hypocrisy of our elected officials. Charlie Daniels possesses a profound love of God and country, and he believes the Constitution is a living, relevant document that needs to be respected and defended. We were inspired by, and grateful for, our fellowship and conversation with Mr. Daniels. He’s a great example for us all, and I invite you to experience some of what we did with this educated, informed, and wise man by viewing a video of our time with him…
Before casting your vote, I strongly encourage you to first educate yourself and research the candidates in order to make a more informed decision on the issues and potential elected officials that will have the greatest impact on your life. The National Shooting Sports Foundation’s (NSSF) GUNVOTE.org is a great resource for identifying your candidates and contains links to their individual websites.
Now is not the time to be complacent. We cannot make excuses for not taking action. Protecting the Second Amendment and our very way of life are at stake.
Inform yourselves on the issues, examine the candidates, and make a responsible decision based in logic and thoughtfulness. Remember that every vote counts – your voice matters! Early voting is going on now in Texas so if you know you won’t make it to the polls on November 8th, you have plenty of time to go before then.
God Bless Texas and this great Country,
Thom Bolsch
