NSSF: "Santorum ‘Stands Tall’ for 2nd Amendment at NSSF Member Range"
by Bill Brassard
Fresh off primary victories in three states, presidential candidate Rick Santorum demonstrated his strong support for the individual right to keep and bear arms by visiting H&H Shooting Sports Complex in Oklahoma City en route to a rally today.
H&H is a NSSF Five Star member range owned by Miles and Jayne Hall.
The Santorum rally originally was scheduled to be held at H&H, but a surge of requests to attend the event forced a change to the Magnuson Hotel and Convention Center, where a crowd estimated at close to 2,000 gathered. The candidate delivered a speech that focused largely on energy, reported News On 6.
During his pre-rally visit at H&H, Santorum said, "I wish we could have had it here, this would have been perfect."
He added, "I am very impressed. It is easy to see why gun ownership is so strong here, and I stand tall with the Second Amendment."
Said Miles Hall, founder and president of H&H, "It was a great honor to show a small but important part of the shooting industry to one of our presidential hopefuls."
