“50-MILLION-ROUND MARCH” SET FOR DAD’S DAY
“50-MILLION-ROUND MARCH” SET FOR DAD’S DAY

Parents Day Hopelessly Politicized
Parents Day Hopelessly Politicized

Reporters and news media executives nationwide are on a tightrope this
week as Dads across America, anticipating Father’s Day next Sunday, are
preparing for what’s billed as “The 50-Million-Round March,” a response
to last month’s Moms March.

“They’re going to try to fire off 50 million rounds of ammunition at
training ranges across America on Sunday, and I’ll bet they do it,” says
Alan Korwin, author of Gun Laws of America, who has been following the
extensive march preparations. The mainstream media has been silent
about it, but men everywhere seem to be looking forward to it, he says.
“It’s simple and elegant — a wholesome family outing in support of the
Bill of Rights.”

Endorsed by a host of national civil rights groups involved in firearms
issues, the 50-Million-Round March (which can be found on the Internet
at http://www.50mrmarch.com) is a grassroots effort being led by Jeff
Head, an engineer from Emmett, Idaho ([email protected]).

Joanie Fischer, who is handling media relations for the event said, in a
note to Korwin, “It’s time to draw a line in the sand, and prevent the
erosion of the human right which ensures the sanctity of all others. I
am focused on those liberties for which our founders sacrificed so
dearly, to ensure our freedom inheritance.” Yeah, it’s a deep quote, but
it’s what she had to say. Fischer can be reached at

“I know just what she means,” says Alicia Wadas, founder and President
of Mothers Arms, a group concerned about a person’s “inviolable right to
self defense,” based in Phoenix (http://www.mothersarms.org). “I
applaud the fathers who are stepping up to their parental responsibility
of keeping their children safe through education and by spending time
with their children. As parents it is our right and responsibility to
be the first line of defense for our families. Laws and 911 are there
for the punishment and the aftermath. Becoming educated and trained in
self protection will help save our children.”

“At 911 crime scenes, police are just highly armed stenographers who
draw chalk lines, not their guns, a short while after you call,” says a
Washington, D.C., civil-rights lobbyist who prefers to remain unnamed.
“The Dad’s March is the perfect response to misguided efforts of women
who are sadly misled by the very media that claims to keep them
informed,” she says. “Many of these women actually believe the police
have a legal duty to protect them — but that’s only true on TV.”

“Dial 911 and prepare to die,” says Aaron Zelman, quoting a book he
publishes, as head of a Jewish group concerned about government
disarmament of the public (Jews for the Preservation of Firearms
Ownership, http://www.jpfo.org). “I don’t really expect the media to
provide the free publicity for the Dad’s March that they did for the
Mom’s March,” Zelman says. “But let’s see if they can also ignore the
ranges across America that will be packed with families on Father’s Day,
exercising their rights, and loudly saying ‘No!’ to infringement by our
own government in Washington.”
