You really thing a thinly veiled reference to violence will bring people around?

I'd have the flyer state:
"I'm fucking nuts....don't take my machine guns!" That will make the intended statement more clearly. You really have to lay it down Barney style for the sheeple, ya know? |

You really thing a thinly veiled reference to violence will bring people around? I can find some for you that tell the world you will tolerate it, if that's how you feel. Not to mention, the flyer says bans=violence so if you won't tolerate a ban then you won't tolerate violence. It is a happy, anti-violent message. |

No, it's a desperate outburst that makes non-gun people think you're a fucking kook and hoping to use your guns. There's a way to fight, and there's a way to make yourself look stupid. Guess which this is. Put that energy to getting new people into the shooting sports, effecting political change, or writing lucid and reasonable letters. This does nothing. |

You hate God and call patriots terrorists. How simple-minded. You're almost like...a sheep. |

This isn't about shooting sports. The second amendment isn't there for you to shoot clay pigeons or deer or frankly even about self defense against petty criminals. It is about establishing, and maintaining a balance of arms/ power between the govt and the citizens. The message the govt needs to hear now is that we know what the 2nd was put in place for and we will not tolerate it being taken away. Period. |

Well, at least we know we can rule out marketing as your possible profession. |

Other than the spelling I think who made and distributed the flyer had their head in the right place.
At least they are not sitting idle and bitching about "price gouging". |
|
Taking people shooting isn't about getting more people to shoot clay pigeons or IPSC. It's just about educating more people that guns are inanimate (i.e. non-evil) objects.
Once people make this realisation (and for some people growing up in very liberal families it's a big one) lots of other stuff (gun control vs people control, self defense, personal responsibility, etc) starts to fall into place. |
|
The first cop who got the flyer said "So you know, none of the cops I work with would ever enforce a ban."

I agree 100%. The time horizon we face on this fundamental issue is immediate though. |

If I was neutral on the subject you wouldn't gain my favor putting crap on my windshield. I might even hunt you down. BTW, you know that's trespassing right?
I support the cause, just pointing out that diplomacy is a narrow walk full of things to trip you up. Any threat of violence no matter how veiled, would only "prove their point" about nuts in possession. |

Quoted:
The first cop who got the flyer said "So you know, none of the cops I work with would ever enforce a ban." The local cops are not what I would be concerned about. With the way this ban is being drafted (aka NFA taxed items), I would be more concerned with the federal govenment agency that enforces tax evasion (aka how they got Al Capone). NINC! |

Because leaving shit on peoples cars is a sure fire way to win them over and is a highly successful marketing technique...

Again, s-t-r-i-c-t-e-s-t is the correct spelling according to Webster.

NINC? It means, NO INFRINGMENT NO COMPROMISE! We have to band together and stop the anti-constitutionlists. |

I usually applaud people for getting up and doing something.
This is not one of those times. If you're going to spread leaflets, at least have them say something useful, like informing people that they should call/write/email their Reps and Senators to stop a ban from happening. Telling people that a ban won't be "tolerated" is not going to have the desired effect, and may be construed as a terroristic threat, depending on your State laws. |

Why not try one of these instead..........................
Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every kingdom of Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any body of regular troops that can be, on any pretense, raised in the United States. – Noah Webster The spirit of resistance to government is so valuable on certain occasions, that I wish it to be always kept alive. It will often be exercised when wrong but better so than not to be exercised at all. I like a little rebellion now and then. It is like a storm in the atmosphere. – Thomas Jefferson (1743-1846), U.S. President, Letter to Abigail Adams, 22 February 1787 It is the duty of the patriot to protect his country from its government. – Thomas Paine (1737-1809) On second thought, don't. Those guys sound like nuts. |

You honestly don't see how '' this will not be tolerated'' followed by a picture of a gun will be seen as a threat of violence? ''Obviously they didnt mean the ban wont be tolerated with the use of that gun that is pictured right next to the text, they must have just grabbed a random clipart and put in on the flyer to jazz it up''. |

We have to be in fear of our elected officials, but they do not have to fear us the citizens. |

Those guys sound like nuts. I like what you quoted, but one of the problems today in our U.S. society, is those are way to long for people to read, and little less comprehend. Now if you had a picture of someone getting kicked in the nuts, or a "cool story bro" picture, you might get them to read more up to 14 words. Yes it is sad, but it seems to be a reality today. |

The gun graphic refers to the ban mentioned not the lack of tolerance. The flyer concerns a ban on items such as the onr pictured, correct? |
