Re: Gun rights people lament low rally turnouts
Were they doing this before Bloomberg stuck his nose into things? Were there big demonstrations back in the 1970s? Do you remember the 38,000 pairs of shoes in DC? Shoes!
Bloomberg and the Brady Campaign are playing a sly game. Everytown and the Gifford's group is "reasonable" and "moderate". VPC (violence policy center) and Brady Campaign are more "radical". To me the difference is pace, how fast they want to go?
Sounds like you're doing as much as anyone can do.
I don't buy demonstrations as being an end all. They're useful. They give people a sense of belonging, of hope. We get the same thing here at this forum and in many other places.
The Media are trying to create a perception that the public wants gun control.
Most of the public doesn't care one way or the other. People mind their own business. We need to get more of them on board with us.
Take someone to the range. Every person who owns a firearm has a reason not to want gun control. Some will anyhow but not most of them.

Re: Gun rights people lament low rally turnouts
I’m busy with work and life, and don’t have the time to attend rallies for rights THAT I ALREADY HAVE.

Re: Gun rights people lament low rally turnouts
I don't go to these gun right rallies. And I know most of my buddies don't either...but we sure do vote that way. Put your money where your mouth is and not waste time at a rally when you can be shooting at the range instead...

Re: Gun rights people lament low rally turnouts
I think summer time is a bad time for such things. People want to get out and enjoy life and not think about politics. Once fall kicks in I think you can get people's attention better.
I've never been a big rally person. I believe there is a time and place for them. I have no opposition to them if people are keen on having them but I think you make more progress turning people pro gun on a one on one basis and also being involved with your representatives as those are the people that will actually vote on laws.

Re: Gun rights people lament low rally turnouts
Of course the media will present things this way.
Compare the 1000+ we had in the 2A Rally we had in the Capitol to the 20-30 paid Moms Demand hags that showed up.
Yes they're more organized because they do this for a living, they are actually paid to do it. We have to find a vacation day to use to get off work to make it...and we pay for our own t-shirts!Galations 6:9...And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.
