Re: ****PAFOA Representation**** Harrisburg Capitol Building, 9/24 and 9/25
I agree with not starting a competing organization to FOAC and GOA, I'm sure they'd welcome a new legion of volunteers from our membership.
I do however like the idea of having a mechanism to quickly organize, inform and mobilize our members when we have urgent action to take like that last Senate hearing. We actually had over a month's notice on that one, in the future we likely won't have that much planning time.
Email blasts, another "action" site, online activism calendar...all good tools we should explore.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.

Re: ****PAFOA Representation**** Harrisburg Capitol Building, 9/24 and 9/25
Zero people are suggesting creating a competing organization.
The fact of the matter is that neither FOAC nor GOA are rally and protest groups. They said as much during the Pittsburgh rally.
Some of us have a different vision of creating that group. The intent is not to compete with FOAC and GOA for speaking time at hearings. The goal is to create the army the will march in support while the experts from FOAC and GOA testify.
With more teeth.
A great number of FOAC representatives thanked us for being able to draw out numbers for the hearings.Last edited by Justin///M; October 9th, 2019 at 10:46 AM.

Re: ****PAFOA Representation**** Harrisburg Capitol Building, 9/24 and 9/25
i'm sober now.
i agree with what the other me said. just can't think of how to incorporate the congressional schedule into a calendar that allows people to edit and add reservations/appointments to.
it is stupidly loud at the fountain, if it is a substantial story we should probably move it around one of the corners.
i also agree with justin, my understanding was that all we are trying to do is organize a presence at the capitol to supplement what we lack. bloomberg millions to hire people to lobby all day every day.
something to go between showing up by the hundred with rifles and being completely silent and or spam filtered by reps.
just like lobbying/hounding reps is something between being content and second revolutionary war.Last edited by fallenleader; October 9th, 2019 at 06:14 PM.

Re: ****PAFOA Representation**** Harrisburg Capitol Building, 9/24 and 9/25
Yeah, when FOAC or GOA need boots on the ground we should be able to turn out whatever they need. We just need to build the infrastructure to make it happen. I'm not entirely sure what that infrastructure would be though. Maybe we should take a look at some of the lefty "direct action" groups and see how they are setup.
Maybe an offical PAFOA app where you could get push notifications of upcoming events and one click sign up. It wouldn't be 100% involvement, but it might get more people out when we need them. Bonus points if it also lets you browse the forum since we'll never get tapatalk.
For the record I only suggested setting up tables at gun shows and having round table discussions as a way to drive more people to the site.

OK, I'm a little lost..so what would "Friends of PAFOA" be? A PAC?
What is the intent/mission/function of FoP?
