Excellent video. I do seem to remember hearing about the Deacons somewhere in my travels but the video really drives home how important they were.
I like the comments in the second half about how all gun owners need to work together to keep their rights, there seem to be far too many people who think "it won't happen to me".
I have found that in debating gun control with people - especially those who are of a liberal mindset and/or of a minority group, there is one very effective bombshell that I resort to when people just won't listen about how gun control opresses people.
First I remind them of the things that Depicts detailed (gun control leads to later genocide) - then I say:
" you know as a white male I am pretty confident that if all the guns are taken away I probably don't have too much to worry about - I will be able to join up in some sort of govt. agency and get myself taken care of - you however as a member of <insert minority group here> are - if history is any indicator - probably going to have some real issues."
That at least gets them thinking and usually stops the debate dead in it's tracks. I have even had a few people come back later and ask more questions about firearm ownership.
Great video Kimmie - I will be forwarding this out to as many people as I can, and in the future I will try to remember to remind people of the existence of the 2nd Amendment Sisters - it's something I had sort of forgotten about.
