Communist Appeal Publishes Permit Holder Database

[Pat McGarrity]

Yet another example of this publication treating gun owners, especially carry permit holders, as second, or even third, class citizens. Can you imagine them publishing a list of illegal aliens, for example? If you are still subscribing to the CA, you should consider what you are funding.

In Liberty,

Pat McGarrity

Director - Shelby County, TFA

"And if all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed—if all records told the same tale—then the lie passed into history and became truth. 'Who controls the past' ran the Party slogan, 'controls the future: who controls the present controls the past.'"

George Orwell - 1984, published in 1949.
