Pro-WHITE Group Sponsors Grab A Gun Day!

The first American Gun Appreciation Day is going to happen on January 19th, and already it's posed to overlap the Chick-Fil-A Appreciation Day. The Chick-Fil-A event that happened in the summer of 2012 and it was sponsored by conservative agitators such as Mike Huckabee, Sarah Palin and Rush Limbaugh.

The huge controversy comes from not only the creator but a WHITE EXTREMIST group that formed its own political action committee. They later pulled the sponsor after controversy ensued.

First things first, Reverend Al Sharpton, a liberal agitator and civil rights activist hosts MSNBC's PoliticsNation, a weeknight program that is the staple to primetime agitators Rachel Maddow, Ed Schultz, Lawrence O'Donnell and Chris Matthews.

Sharpton interviews the creator of the Gun Appreciation Day, Larry Ward.

They get into a heated debate over the president's proposals to curb gun violence! The proposals include a ban on semi-automatic weapons and limits on magazine clips. Republicans, the National Rifle Association and their allies in the conservative media were encouraging individuals to buy firearms by the dozen.

The testy interview ended with Sharpton taking offense to Ward comparing this event to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. a famed civil rights activist to gun owner's rights! King who was assassinated by a firearm.

Al Sharpton: "You do realize that Martin Luther King was killed by a gun and that he preached all of his life against the use of any weapons and preached turn the other cheek? So you do realize that what you said was the total antithesis to Dr. King?"  

"Do you understand how despicable it would be to members of his family that saw their father killed by gun fire for you to say that you are in some way continuing his legacy on King weekend by doing 'Gun Appreciation Day,' when he preached against that and died from a bullet wound? Then to say that there wouldn't be slavery if slaves had the right to guns? Slaves didn't have any rights. They didn't have the right to marry; they didn't have the right to name their own children—why would they have rights to guns?"

What this Gun Appreciation Day got was some more bad news. The American Third Position, a Neo-Nazi sponsored political group that supports the far right candidates such as Chuck Baldwin, Ron Paul and Pat Buchanan. They're involved in the planning of this event.



Media Matters for America, a liberal group that covers conservative agitators in the media, found that the American Third Position was a sponsor of Gun Appreciation Day.

Gun Appreciation Day, a prominent effort backed by conservative media outlets and activists to oppose new gun laws, has accepted the sponsorship of a white nationalist organization to promote and mobilize supporters for its January 19 event.

Gun Appreciation Day (GAD) is partnering with the American Third Position (A3P), a political group that describes itself as representing "the unique political interests of white Americans." According to a party official, the organization is composed of "white nationalists."

GAD's organizers ask supporters to visit "gun stores, gun counters, gun shows, and gun ranges to protest the Obama administration's post Sandy Hook assault on gun rights." The event has received significant media coverage and promotion in recent days.

GAD lists A3P on its "sponsors" page along with its logo, motto ("Liberty. Sovereignty. Identity") and a link to American3rdPosition.com. Other sponsors include prominent conservative media outlets like RedState, the right-wing blog edited by CNN contributor Erick Erickson. The event's main page asks visitors to "Please Support Our Sponsors."

The pro-gun event is teaming with A3P despite ample and easily found evidence of the group's fringe views. The first Google result for the group after its official website is the user-edited Wikipedia page for A3P, which currently states in its opening sentence that the group "promotes white supremacy."

According to its mission statement, "The American Third Position Party believes that government policy in the United States discriminates against white Americans, the majority population, and that white Americans need their own political party to fight this discrimination." The group also states that it "exists to represent the unique political interests of white Americans. It exists to maintain the identity, culture, and way of life of the American people, whose forefathers, from a vast wilderness, carved out an awe-inspiring extension of Western civilization, in order that their progeny--us--might live in relative peace and prosperity."

Civil rights groups have harshly criticized A3P. The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) categorizes A3P as a white nationalist hate group, and states that it is a "political party initially established by racist Southern California skinheads that aims to deport immigrants and return the United States to white rule. The group is now led by a coterie of prominent white nationalists." The Anti-Defamation League calls A3P a "white supremacist political party."

The staff of Gun Appreciation Day pulled the A3P sponsor as of tonight.

But the damage was done and yes, it's being looked upon by those at Media Matters for America and Right Wing Watch, an affiliate to Think Progress and the Southern Poverty Law Center.

WHITE EXTREMISTS aren't amused by the "PC"! Some threaten to not attend due to the pull of the A3P.

But of course it won't stop the hundreds of Elmer Fudds flocking to the Walmarts, Dick's, Gander Mountains, pawn shop or local gun stores across the nation.
