One way to do this is to respond each and every time the mainstream media seeks our opinions on subjects that impact our traditions. The Second Amendment is one of these subjects. It's vitally importance to millions of America’s sportsmen. This is especially the case today as all firearm owners constantly face legislation in Washington and state capitals seeking to constrain our constitutional rights. This online poll from USA Today, one of the leading news providers in the country, has surfaced a number of times online. Despite being around for three plus years, the poll asks a tremendously important question, “Does the Second Amendment give individuals the right to bear arms?” Thus far over 7 million people have responded with the overwhelming majority voting yes. As legislators in Congress and the states come back into session, this is a good time to express your opinion about our right to keep and bear arms. As such, the U.S. Sportsmen’s Alliance hopes that you will join those that have already voted and make your opinion heard. In the meantime, let’s all take a deep breathe and get ready for to continue standing up for our outdoor heritage in 2011! Take Action! Click here to vote and add your voice to the USA Today poll.
