As promised President Obama and the liberal statists are taking swift action to ban guns and restrict the constitutional rights of Americans. Senate Democrats have now unveiled their plan to expand the definition of prohibited "assault" weapons and reduce the legal limit for magazine capacity to ten rounds. One thing is certain, our Second Amendment gun rights are squarely in Obama's crosshairs - and sweeping changes and restrictions are now before Congress. Join Grassfire's "Save The 2nd" And Support The Second Amendment Grassfire has launched a grassroots petition to mobilize 250,000 patriots who are challenging Washington lawmakers' aggressive push to undermine and restrict your Second Amendment rights. Grassfire will hand-deliver these petitions to the White House, the Vice President and key members of Congress in the coming days in a massive grassroots demonstration of support for our Second Amendment rights. Grassfire is asking team members to sign our "I Support the Second Amendment" petition and to have their friends and family members do the same. Use the sharing tools below to "Save the 2nd" via Facebook, Twitter, email and other social media.

Petition States:
As an American citizen, with God-given constitutional rights, I reject any and all efforts by the Obama administration and Congress to restrict and diminish my Second Amendment rights. The heart-wrenching violence in Connecticut, Colorado and other areas of the nation are terrible and unfortunate, and I support efforts to keep guns out of the hands of criminals and those who are mentally ill. However, restricting guns of any kind from law-abiding citizens is an assault on my rights as an American that cannot and will not be tolerated.

I urge members of Congress not to attempt to legislate away my Second Amendment rights, and I challenge you to live up to your sworn oath and work diligently to protect those rights.
