Well folks, you did it…You sure tied a knot in the tail of those Moms Demand Action people!
Pro-gun Senate candidate Joni Ernst’s appearance at the Iowa State Fair went off without a hitch today, thanks to your help. By our count, only five or six “moms” showed up, and they were drowned out by a sea of supporters of gun rights and of Joni Ernst. The MDA people never even had a chance to be disruptive! In fact, you’ll all be amused to know that when politely approached by one gun rights supporter to discuss why they were there, ALL of them refused to comment and ran away. Go figure…Apparently sunshine really is the best disinfectant!
We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: Good things happen because you folks can always be relied upon to come together and make a stand for what’s right. So thank you!
And in case you missed it, our very own Jeff Burkett, president of IFC, had a chat live on the air with Jan Mickelson on WHO’s “Mickelson in the Morning” radio program. Be sure to check the podcast out here! To top that off, David Codrea, columnist for the fantastic “Guns” Magazine, wrote about IFC and MDA today in his Examiner column!
So the word is out, folks: IFC is an organization to contend with when it comes to real common sense Second Amendment issues! No doubt that message was heard loud and clear today, all the way to San Diego and New York City!
Fighting for your Second Amendment rights in Iowa,

I came here thanks to the Davis Codrea column. Great job, everyone! Way to smack Bloomberg down! Regardless of what state we live in, we are all in this together and have to help each other out to defeat Bloomberg the Banner.
By the way, for those not familiar, David Codrea is one of the two gun bloggers to break and keep alive the Fast and Furious story. Check him out at: waronguns.blogspot.com and davidcodrea.com. United we stand, divided we hang!
Thanks, Craig!
And no worries about not being there…We’ve all got each other’s back! Someday you’ll be able to step up when someone else can’t make it. 🙂
Barry, you are doing a wonderful job as IFC Communications Director. Wish I could have been there.
So cool. Those anti gun people are so pitiful. I have supported IFC since it was Iowa Carry. So glad to hear all went well.
Stu, and thanks for being the first commenter on our new site! 🙂
Thanks to all Iowa Firearms Coalition members!
