Many grainy copies of segments of this testimony floating around, this is one of the most comprehensive and clearest I have seen.
Note Mary Carpenter echos Suzanna Hupp’s words when she discusses her family’s encounter with a pitchfork murderer 9 years later.
(Paraphrase) I/we did a stupid thing. We obeyed a law that disarmed us.
Watch these videos early and often,send to your friends and enemies alike. Just say no to political tyranny.

While it may be impermissible to yell fire inappropriately in a crowded theatre, apparently it is permissible when under threat of extreme physical violence.
As much as I believe this project to be a step in the right direction, youngsters in the RKBA community have always understood the need for, and application of necessary force in pursuit of the preservation of life and well being (their own and others).
Perhaps this understanding of necessary force will slowly permeate the entire world community and eventually extend to the Right To Keep And Bear Arms.

In memoriam: Ashley Carpenter, Age 9 and John William Carpenter, Age 7
On August 23rd, 2000 a California Family bore the full force and fury of Liberal Democrat Rule when two small children were sacrificed on the alter of ruinous political gun control theory and law in an incident that has become known as the Merced Pitchfork Murders.
If you have not heard this story spend some time and learn today.
Heed the words of Mary Carpenter, grandmother of Ashley and John William: “Do not forget the Carpenter Story-the Big Bad Wolf does not come to the front door and knock, he hides in the garage and jimmies the kitchen door lock with a butter knife.”
Repeat it around the campfire, at the dinner table, cocktail parties, bars, at family gatherings,sewing circles, Bible Study Groups and everywhere else.
Shout it out at conventions, meetings and public gatherings. Whisper it in quiet places and solemn times.
Behold the handiwork of the Roe v. Wade Liberal Democrat Party. They will literally kill children to “save them”, before they are born and after.

An introductory excerpt from the article:
Jessica Lynne Carpenter is 14 years old. She knows how to shoot; her father taught her. And there were adequate firearms to deal with the crisis that arose in the Carpenter home in Merced, Calif. — a San Joaquin Valley farming community 130 miles southeast of San Francisco — when 27-year-old Jonathon David Bruce came calling on Wednesday morning, Aug. 23.
There was just one problem. Under the new “safe storage” laws being enacted in California and elsewhere, parents can be held criminally liable unless they lock up their guns when their children are home alone … so that’s just what law-abiding parents John and Tephanie Carpenter had done.

And an introductory excerpt:
Fear stalks Merced, California – fear of the government. Because of that fear, two innocent children died needlessly, victims of California’s “safe storage” gun laws. The mass media never told Americans what really happened in Merced. But the tale of the Merced Pitchfork Murders will not die. Through talk radio; through the Internet; by word of mouth, the story gathers momentum with each passing year. Like the tale of the Boston Massacre in 1770, passed from patriot to patriot over tankards of ale, the Merced Pitchfork Murders live and burn in the hearts of millions of Americans.
On that terrible morning of August 23, 2000, fourteen-year-old Jessica Carpenter had been left in charge to look after her four siblings, Anna, 13; Vanessa, 11; Ashley, 9; and John, 7. Their father left for work. Their mother took the car to get the brakes checked.
The last few days the people who go to conventions and the SHOT Show and appear on TV and speak on radio have gotten into a food fight over the NSSF’s recommendations from a Research Firm about how to gain public trust for RKBA.
According to the focus group research some firearms are more equal than others. Pistols,in particular, are children of a lesser god.
Michael Bane has some lengthy comments on his blog.

Those of us who have gone where no celebrities or cameras or big shots can be found have long been aware this society is top heavy with gungrabbers.
No matter how many members of a police or Sheriff’s Department support RKBA, the top administrators and policy makers are almost always gungrabbers.
No matter how many County Commissioners or City Council Members or Wildlife Commission Directors support RKBA, the City Manager or the Executive Director or the research staff are almost always gun grabbers or in a pinch, lean toward “sensible gun control” regulations.
And of course the NRA is on record since the 1930s with their version of gungrabbing in their role as America’s Oldest Gun Control Institution
So why the surprise with NSSF? Has everyone forgotten this ad from 2004?
Can anyone recall the specifics of ChildSafe and Project SafeNeighborhood?
Let me help you out. 5 MILLION Dollars(last I checked, it has probably increased by now) of YOUR TAX MONEY fund a guy and a van to drive into YOUR CITY and park IN YOUR Walmart Parking lot and advertise to all and sundry that any RKBAian who does not try to ruin his/her weapon with some inane bicycle cable lock is an evil danger to society and him or herself.
George Bush (the good Republican) loved this program when he was Governor of Texas and he loved it even more when he became President.
As a result there is the NSSF in a full page ad in your favorite gun magazine using your tax dollars to tell you how to live your life.
It does not matter what Mary Carpenter thinks about Child Safety programs -most people do not have the intestinal fortitude to sit through 10 minutes of her testimony even if it is broken up into two parts so they can take a breather between indictments. Like a train wreck it is easier to avert eyes and pretend the inevitable will not occur.
See if you are one of the few strong enough to endure ten minutes in two parts here and here.

And you can dingdongdarnwell bet Doug Koenig does not abuse any of his raceguns with some idiotic cable lock and risk ruining the alignment of the slide or dinging the magazine well.
Yet there he is instructing the ignorami amongst the unwashed masses how to acquire, possess, transport and deploy their personal weapons with a child who looks NOTHING like the children who die of gunshot wounds in crackhouses and in neighborhoods filled with drug dealers and gang violence.
As much as I enjoy a good food fight amongst the elite it is simple reality things will not change until We,The Peasants ask ourselves and each other:”How did the people who “run things” get to where they got and why can we just not fire them and find replacements who actually believe in RKBA?”
I will believe in change when I see it.
