Angered and afraid that President Barack Obama's proposals to ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines are a ploy to strip them of their right to own weapons, pro-gun activists plan to rally across America on Saturday.

 

Using Facebook and other social media, a group called Guns Across America plans rallies in 49 states, mostly at state capitols and all at "high noon" local time.

 

"There is no question in my mind that if the federal government could get away with it they would keep passing gun laws until the Second Amendment has gone," said Eric Reed, an airline pilot in Texas who launched the group. "We as a people have to stand together on this."

Freedom Dogs: Executive Actions Trigger Second Amendment Rallies in Minnesota & Across the Nation

Saturday at high noon, supporters of the second ammendment gathered at capitols across the country. The rallies were in response to President Obama's executive actions to reduce gun violence issued last week. Here in Minnesota, it was a large cowd with the promise of more uniting and action. Via the StarTribune:

 

Like other events across the country, the St. Paul rally was largely a grass-roots event. It was organized by Michael Rieschl, a 31-year-old former manufacturing worker from Ramsey who isn't involved in politics or a leader in any gun-rights organizations. Rieschl said he felt compelled to make sure Minnesota wasn't left out of the national movement.

 

"The problem is we are now using our emotions to guide our actions," Rieschl told the crowd. "Gun laws do not work. Gun laws do not solve violent crimes. Gun laws reduce the rights of good law-abiding citizens to defend themselves."

 

Legislators supportive to the cause attended the rally:
