FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Contact: Harry Browne (Libertarian Party Presidential Candidate) and Bloomfield Press Endorsements June 12, 2000 (Boise, Idaho) Harry Browne, Libertarian candidate for President [www.harrybrowne.com], has endorsed the 50 Million Round March [www.50mrmarch.com]. In commenting on the current state of 2nd amendment rights in America and the 50 Million Round March, Mr. Browne said, "Honest Americans will continue to be at a disadvantage to armed criminals until the current 20,000 gun laws are repealed. None of these laws stops violent crime; all of them intrude into our privacy and our ability to defend ourselves. Thus I wish the 50 Million Round March well. " Alan Korwin, author of "Gun Laws in America," [www.gunlaws.com], and founder of Bloomfield Press (the largest publisher of gun law books in the country), who has been following the march preparations, made the following comments regarding the Fifty Million Round March and its prospects, "They're going to try to fire off fifty million rounds of ammunition at training ranges across America on Sunday, and I'll bet they do it. The mainstream media has been silent about it, but men everywhere seem to be looking forward to it. It's simple and elegant -- a wholesome family outing in support of the Bill of Rights."On Father's Day, June 18th, and at other times throughout the year, Fathers and their families, friends and neighbors will gather at gun ranges all over the country to shoot simultaneously over fifty million rounds as a demonstration of their determination to preserve their second amendment rights. At the events, they will write letters to their elected representatives charging them to not infringe upon those rights. In addition to the March itself, through a collaboration with J.J. Johnson and his Sierra Times [www.sierratimes.com], a "Fifty Million Round Photo Gallery" of pictures of fathers, their families, and their children exercising their Second Amendment rights at the various Fifty Million Round March events will be made available on-line. Speaking of the planned Fifty Million Round Photo Gallery, Johnson says, "The goal of this collaboration is to gather one hundred thousand fathers and their children and families on Father's day at the gun range, and to compile an historic record of their commitment to their inherently American right to bear arms, as well as the American gun owners' ongoing commitment to safe and responsible gun handling."In a further development, the Fifty Million Round March also has announced an agreement with OughtSix Wear [www.oughtsix.com] to produce T-shirts and other articles for the Fifty Million Round March events. The T-shirts are available for on-line ordering now at both the Ought Six and the 50 Million Round March web sites. Please note: Organizers of the Fifty Million Round March event are scheduling talk radio interviews for the rest of June and July.
