What guns are OK with the Anti's? (New 'Commercial')

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - What guns are OK with the Anti's? (New 'Commercial')

Posted: 10/30/2002 5:54:19 PM EDT

A thread a week or so ago gave me the idea for this - what guns do the anti's think are ok? When you go down the list, there's something they don't like about every one of them. This is the result:

You forgot "Too inexpensive...Saturday Night Specials".

Not needed though, your point was made just fine.
Good stuff as usual, Bastiat!

Don't be too sure about that. Once I rebuild my studio, I'll be adding improved soundtracks to all of them and burning them to video CD's. Then they can be played on public access cable nationwide - for free. Just need local residents to request airtime.

And If I can get some money together, I just might buy some cheap commercial time and run 'em myself.

I don't say much, but I like.

That is truly excellent.

Sure hope you're successful in getting it in front of the general public!

Posted: 10/30/2002 7:13:23 PM EDT

That is very good.

Excellent! That would make a great TV spot. The only suggestion(s) I have is to replace the A-1 with a varminter or competion type AR (the graphic you used is too 'Vietnam').
For the "Too accurate" maybe something like a scoped hunting rifle (scopes = snipers). The "Saturday Night Special" suggestion is a tough one. Maybe a 'Liberator' pistol but, outside of us "gun nuts" [:D], very few people would get the connection.
Other than that, the presentation and message is
right on!

I have a friend who does the advertising slots on several networks down the road from me in Manhattan. Some of their airtime is rediculously cheap late at night. 30 seconds for $30-60.00. I am planning to make some ads concerning driving habits in CT etc and have them aired if they can get past the censor. Email me and I will direct you to her email address. They will take them on beta format or on CD, and she is as pro freedom as anyone I have ever met.

Woohoo! I was the author of the inspirating thread.
Do I need to send you my address for the royalty checks? [:D]

The "Saturday Night Special" suggestion is a tough one.

How about a Hi-Point pistol? You can't get much cheaper than that , and yet they're still generally regarded to be safe and reliable —

Doublefeed, I'll send you the check after I deduct my design fees [:D]

I think I actually had this on my (big disorganized) list of future projects several months ago. Your post did help jog my memmory, though.

Very nicely done! I am sending these to all my liberal friends, especially the one about Gun Nuts.

Posted: 10/31/2002 5:30:23 AM EDT

Excellent stuff. I especially like the precussion rifle part. It really drives home the point that an anti will always come up with a reason to ban any firearm.

My only complaint is that I hate birdcages on A1 uppers. Go 3 prong!

Beautiful.

Had to point that out to a colleague who is "supporting" an ANTI because of his pro-labor position.

He didn't understand "the reason the hunters(law abiding shooters) fear gun-control legislation" is because [u]we're the only one's obeying the laws[/u].

Just gotta keep the faith.

You are my hero! [^]

Oh, but [b]Yankee1911[/b] is right, adding "Saturday Night Specials" would make it perfect.

Posted: 10/31/2002 9:57:34 AM EDT

[#36]

That one is good.

However, the "Gun Nuts" piece takes the cake. Totally freaking brilliant. Kudos!

Posted: 10/31/2002 9:57:57 AM EDT

[#37]

Out-freaking-standing!

I would change the "too accurate" rifle to a scoped hunting rifle, and you've GOT to add a "saturday-nite special." A .38 Special S&W maybe? They turn up the most in traces.

Posted: 10/31/2002 10:07:22 AM EDT

[#38]

I guess I am going to be the first one on this thread to make a NEGATIVE comment about it:

"WHY HAVENT I SEEN IT ON TV YET???????"

Sell it baby!!! I LOVE IT! GREAT work!

You said, what we all have been thinking.

Posted: 10/31/2002 10:08:39 AM EDT

[#39]

Don't have any pics of scoped rifles in my clipart collection, so the bolt action will have to do.

As for the saturday night special, I thought about it, but I have to balance content with the amount of time it runs. Since I'm hoping to open the minds of non-gunowners, I have to cater to the non-passionate, who may not sit through a movie that's too long. Dealing with short attention spans sucks, but if I don't recognize that people can lose interest, the movies lose their effectiveness.

Very Professional. Great Job. I would love to see that on Cable Access 11 in Phoenix.

Let me know when you have the CDs available.

I would gladly pay to have one, just to try and get it on the air.
