Please Support Rep. Humason Candidate for State Senate

 

Attention: The MA state Democrat party is working very hard to ensure voter turn out in the Second Hampden & Hampshire District general election for State Senate in order to derail GOAL Member and current State Representative Don Humason  from gaining the open State Senate seat.

Please do everything you can to support Rep. Humason in his campaign and encourage every eligible voter to cast a ballot on Tuesday November 5.  You can donate to his campaign by clicking here.  Please send him a donation today!

As many of you know the Massachusetts State Senate is incredibly out of balance.  Thirty six of the forty senate seats are currently held by Democrats.  They would love to make it 37.  

 

Please do all you can to support Rep. Humason, go to your clubs, talk to your friends and neighbors, make sure that everyone you know will cast a ballot on November 5, 2013 for Rep. Humason.

 

Thank you.

Final Thought: No Representation In Congress for MA Gun Owners
This week, WBUR recently ran a story covering the debate of Democrat candidates for the open 5th District U.S. Congress seat left vacant by Ed Markey.  
 
During the debate they began a trend I've noticed of late, it's a trend that is disturbing because the candidates are all proudly proclaiming how much they dislike our Second Amendment.  At times it bordered on the ridiculous as the candidates tried to one up each other and it went like this:
 
"I hate the Second Amendment the most".. "No you don't, the NRA gave me a zero, I hate it the most!"..

It's amazing that these candidates who are running on this premise, for a job which was created to ensure our rights are protected, all stand and proudly proclaim their distaste for our Second Amendment Rights. 

It's time to stop electing freedom hating hacks to U.S. Congress, we have enough of them already.

Follow us on Facebook for more and feel free to share this info on your social media.
