"KeepAndBearArms.com is a grassroots movement of the people, by the people, and for the people.  It is a call to action, a call for self-education, and a 21 gun salute to the many good men and women who fought and died to bring America into being.

This web site is about helping lawful people maintain their abilities to protect themselves and the people they love effectively from anyone who would do them harm - through legal, private ownership and use of guns.  We also stand for the repealing of all gun laws which infringe on the civil rights of peaceable women and men to defend their own lives and property."

She was director of the office of the Tillamook Public Defender and has also managed a private practice of law, emphasizing criminal defense.
