BTT
We need to be ready to spread the word. The media is filling folks heads full of shit about the Assault Weapons Ban. We need to let them in on the truth and what could happen if we are not viglent in makeing sure there is never a AWB2. Let's take advantage of the light the media is puting on the AWB and used to let the people know the truth!!!!! GOD BLESS AMERICA The 2nd Amendment is coming back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2 weeks ? More like the next 6 - 8 months.... I completely agree, we should treat every guest like they were the first to ask the question.... I hate to see knowledgable ppl goof on others that only ask questions that HAVE been asked many, many times before. It does get old  but remember, they are only looking to increase their own knowledge.If we cant be the best ambassadors of firearms, then who will ? Thats right, anti-groups spreading their LIES.... |

Don't we have an AWB FAQ thread tacked up somewhere????
If not, why? |

You know I vote that this is a GREAT IDEA and we elect someone like ETH or Macallan to write up the FACTS about the AWB and the false tales of the anti-freecom crowd... and POST AAND TACK it to the GD discussion board AS WELL as the opening page. All those in favor? YEA or NAY? |

Plus one on the FAQ.
We're probably going to get hammered over the next few months. Send the "new ones" over to look at the FAQ first and then deal with whatever questions they still have. Could end up with a LOT former fence-sitters (and maybe even a few anti's) coming over to the Light Side if we do this right. |

OK So who are we gonna get to author this FAQ? come up with 5 names and POLL and VOTE. So far I can think of ETH and Macallan. I WOULD say sgtar15 but one of his questions would be something like:
Q:With the AWB no longer in effect, Can I shoot cats now? A:Why of course.... actually you could have killed them PRIOR to the ban so now you have to make up for lost time... Kill 2 a day See what I mean?

If not, that would be super helpful. |

I've said for a long time that new users should have to read and electronically sign an EULA that includes a tutorial on the AWB.

Not such a stupid question. I can't tell you how many people want to know if it's over Monday or Tuesday. For the average person it's not a big difference. But FFLs are mostly waiting till Tuesday to play it safe. It would be nice to know for sure since I'm leaving town on Monday and can't transfer newly unbanned guns until I get back Friday. Would be nice to know if Monday was the day or not. And calling ATF is a waste, they won't comment until the friggin law expires. They just won't tell you when it expires!!! |

AWB FAQ = Great idea!
|
|
|
|
Posted: 9/10/2004 9:24:14 AM EDT
[#31]
The only reason I voted "No" is because in about 58.5 hours, the AWB will no longer exist. By the time the FAQ goes up, the ban will be gone.
But if we want something for people to see which explains what the AWB WAS, then that makes more sense. |

Actually, it would still be useful. Many folks unfamiliar with the contents of the AWB, will be curious as to what freedoms have been regained. Very useful as a matter of fact.  |

Ya hit the nail on the head there. People WANT information, they will get it from anywhere they can and it should be us that provides good information about the POS that the AWB is. |

I say the NRA should run some commercials, letting the public know the truth of the AWB. They should also include the difference between a real full auto machine gun and the semi-auto assualt-weapons. This way the public can see what the anti's are lying about. The NRA is the BIG GUN for us and they should step up to the plate on this. |

Absolutely.
This is the biggest thing in 15 years. In three days we will be saying: "Free at Last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty Free at Last!!!" |

I think a FAQ is a good idea. It amazes me how many folks (mostly non-shooters) are misinformed about the AWB.

Yes, it is. I served in Vietnam in 1970 and 1971 in the Navy. |
