The Great Gun Debate - well 1/2 of it anway May 14, 2007

Join the Manhattan Libertarian monthly meeting where Mark Smith of the National Rifle Association will be our speaker. We originally planned this meeting as a debate between the gun-rights side represented by Mark Smith and the gun-control side. We contacted several gun control organizations including the Brady Center and at least one other. For good reason or bad they could or would produce no speaker to debate.

I am issuing a challenge to the gun-control crowd to produce someone to debate. We may not have time to get them in this time but I'll try. If we can't I will schedule a true debate at a later time. It would be good if that person was part of a fairly well known organization so that the debate has some publicly recognized credibility but given those organizations inability to rise to the occasion I'll be flexible.

Mark W. Smith is the New York Times bestselling author of The Official Handbook of the Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy, a New York attorney and a frequent commentator in the national media. Mark will be appearing as a speaker at FreedomFest 2007 in Las Vegas this coming July.
