National 2A Day

Don't ask me why it's April 17, I don't know.
But I do intend to exercise my 2A right today.

Quote
National 2A Day is observed on April 17 every year as an American holiday celebrating the
Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which protects the right of Americans to keep
and bear arms.  The day was created by Deborah Lane in 2019 to honor the founding fathers'
foresight in enshrining these rights, though some sources note the Second Amendment
Foundation (SAF) established a version of the observance in 2013.

Historical Context: The Second Amendment was ratified on December 15, 1791, as part of
the Bill of Rights, but April 17 was chosen for the national observance to commemorate the
right itself.

State Observances: While the national day is April 17, specific states observe their own
versions, such as Oklahoma (June 28, marking the McDonald v. City of Chicago ruling) and
Pennsylvania (the fourth Tuesday of May).

Alternative Dates: Some organizations, like Brownells, have promoted a separate "National
2A Day" on February 22 to celebrate Second Amendment rights with events like free firearm
rentals at ranges.

Celebrities, politicians, and advocacy groups like the NRA often participate in events ranging
from rallies and funfairs to online discussions using the hashtag #2ADay.  In recent years,
these celebrations have also coincided with legislative victories, such as the elimination of the
$200 federal tax stamp on suppressors effective January 1, 2026.

From what I see, National Hospital Day is part of National Hospital Week and is meant to give the public a positive perspective of the healthcare system.

So, it would be more in line with the holiday to send edible arrangements to an ER that treated you or a loved one recently with excellent professionalism and personal comfort.

Or you could take your doctor out to the range, but you should check into his 2A/gun stance beforehand.   :geekdanc: :thumbsup:
