OK, I think the recent wins for anti-gun politicians in Congress and the White House have emboldened them in their efforts against us. They seem to have forgotten what happened after the Federal Assault gun ban put into effect by Clinton. We must remind them, and we must never let them forget it. I want to found an organization akin to the NRA; but with less of an emphasis in lobbying and campaigning, and more of an emphasis in grassroots activities (not protests; but putting referendums in state ballots, especially in the places where gun laws are most restrictive, to show anti-gun politicians that their constituencies are voting for them for other reasons) and winning judicial test cases (Heller v. DC was a major victory for us; but very little has come of it because we have not availed ourselves of it). I have never started an organization like this before, and would like to hear from people who have, and can give me advice on how to go about it. I need advice on what kind of tax status I should seek (I know it's not a non-profit; but I don't know much else), and on how to set up a web page or a web site. The idea for the page or site is that people would be able to download referendum petitions, have their friends sign them, then send them back to the organization. I am not too savvy about this, as I've never posted on the internet on anything other than social sites or bullteting boards; but this would be something on a different level. With more leeway on what can be posted.
The organization would not deal exclusively with gun issues; but also other political issues of a Libertarian nature. Also, if someone could tell me of other websites similar to this one with a pro-gun or libertarian stance, I would greatly appreciate it.
