keith, I posted below on another thread today. My advice earlier was plain as pudding: take every supporter willing to work with you. Don't look to politics or where one disagrees on other matters; what counts is another helping hand. As far as contributing, each to his own experience. Those who are shy and not familiar with public spaces often work through their organizations i.e. service clubs, Legions etc.
There you are, Doug. The results have been satisfactory. How are yours?
King, my reading comprehension is just fine. Your first line of advice suggests that where we are mistaken is in not taking on every supporter we can. We are, and we are also trying to motivate more all the time. I'm not preaching to the choir. I'm after fence sitters and those who are reluctant because of public perceptions or misinformation or lulling.
Your second line above is very clear. King Brown can get into unpopular political discussions and give his opinion, as he has a hundred times... the rest of us should play it close to the vest lest we ruffle any feathers.
You say you have not taken Doug or I to task, but your whole previous post was taking me to task and asking what I have done in comparison to the great King Brown. I included the last line of your smug reply to Doug which gave us a glimpse of your son's co-pilot resume, but nothing of yours as pertains to rolling back gun control. I can indeed read and comprehend and interpret meaning. I still have not seen you once correct the incorrect assertions of the "grabbers" on this board. You keep dancing around the questions and diverting the discussion to airplanes and highway projects.
I get it that you have not used any foul language in your dealings with us. I note however that you are often adept at denigrating or insulting without being overt. I always considered that sneaky and disingenuous.
Before I'd contact Wayne Lapierre to recommend he enlist someone willing to give up semi-autos and "clips" in order to forestall any registration, I'd like to hear from that former foreign minister and current defense minister myself. I still haven't seen anything specifically of any great import that you did to reverse the registry, and I'm still questioning how, with your activism and effective tactics, the registry came to be in the first place.
Gotta go, I've been called out to work on some problems.
