What: Indy’s March for Our Lives, to protest gun violence Where: Tarkington Park, Meridian & 40th When: today, June 11 at noon. I’ll wear an orange “We Can Stop Gun Violence” t-shirt. The steps we can take to reduce gun deaths are not difficult & can reduce 43,222 dead (2020). 1/6

Host of a gun show on WIBC, in the dunes of the IQ Desert, said I want to repeal the 2nd Amend. I’ll be charitable & infer he said this from ignorance. I’ve never said 2A should be repealed. It’s been misconstrued after > 200 years of Courts saying it doesn’t protect individual right to bear arms. 2/6

If we ban assault-style weapons, high volume magazines, semi-automatic weapons w/> 5 shots, enhance background checks, require training & liability insurance, we’ll have taken important steps to reduce deaths. He also said he really wants to hear how I can claim to be a Republican. 3/6

Here’s how: IN GOP is a not-for-profit (NFP) incorporated under Indiana law. Neither its articles of incorporation nor its rules set ideological reqs. GOP was founded/for most of history run on progressive ideals. One way we can fight trumpism is to wrest control of GOP. 4/ 6

In 2005 IN GOP rules were written to prevent its takeover as its had been taken over. We need to change corporate statutes to prevent a NFP that is a political party from insulating itself from voter takeover. So that individual can languish in his IQ desert. But I ask: can he track who listens to his show? 5/6

Have any mass killers tuned in multiple times to his show & can we access mass killers’ browser info under FOIA? I’m Mark Small: pro-choice, pro environment, pro-civil rts & anti-gun GOP candidate for House Distr 86 in Indiana. I approve of this blog. Hell, I wrote it. 6/6
