Are guns to blame for the recent rash of mass shootings? A group of Second Amendment advocates thinks not.
The coalition announced that Guns & God Appreciation Day is set for Sept. 14. The coalition is asking Second Amendment supporters to rally “at their state capitals,” attend guns shows, “shoot off a few rounds at your local gun range.”
“We want to double the turnout of the original Gun Appreciation Day,” said coalition founder Larry Ward. “Half a million people came out to celebrate their gun rights in 2013; we are shooting for a million this September.”
Ward noted that “The difference this time is we are asking everyone to be prayerful about returning our nation to God as the only solution to the hatred and mass murder plaguing our blessed country.”
