April 26, 2007 -- LOBBYIST FOR WORLD’S LARGEST SMALL ARMS MANUFACTURER, AMMO DISTRIBUTOR IS SLATED TO ADDRESS CONFEDERATE GROUP

WASHINGTON, D.C., April 24, 2007 --- The Sons of Confederate Veterans is featuring Thomas Moore for their upcoming symposium at the Key Bridge Marriott in Arlington, Virginia on Saturday, April 28th.

According to Congressional lobbying records, Thomas Moore is listed as a lobbyist for FN Herstal USA, the world’s largest manufacturer of small arms which is headquartered in Brussels, Belgium and maintains a plant in Columbia, South Carolina.

Moore is also listed as the lobbyist for Le Mas Ltd, a little Rock, Arkansas distributor for armor-piercing bullets designed to explode in flesh. The bullets were tested in Iraq by a private military contractor and were evaluated at the Blackwater private military contractor facility in North Carolina. The extremely lethal bullets are manufactured by RBCD Performance Plus Ammunition in San Antonio, Texas.

The bullets used by the killer at the recent Virginia Tech massacre and displayed on his DVD were also designed to explode in flesh.

Corporate 2006 records in the District of Columbia list Moore as a director of the Jefferson Davis Camp No. 305 of the Sons of Confederate Veterans. This corporate filing includes Charles Goolsby, the Voice of America’s producer for the International Crime Alert; Richard Hines, a million-dollar lobbyist for Gambia and Nigeria; and Eric Martin, a Park Ranger who interprets the Ford’s Theater site which assassin John Wilkes Booth made infamous. The Sons of Confederate Veterans has a John Wilkes Booth Chapter. The group’s 1997 corporate filing lists Jeffrey Addicott as a director. Addicott was serving as the senior attorney for the Special Forces at the time; he is currently the director of the Center for Terrorism Law at St. Mary’s University School of Law in San Antonio.

John Edward Hurley, president of the Confederate Memorial Association, said that the Jefferson Davis Camp was raffling off small arms at the Confederate Memorial Hall, Washington’s century-old museum that was closed in 1997 due to litigation over the matter. Hurley said that this group also raffled off arms at the annual Confederate ceremonies at Arlington National Cemetery.

Hurley said that the Sons of Confederate Veterans finances attorney Kirk Lyons, who is known for his representation of the Ku Klux Klan and the Aryan Nations.
