Why the design?
Unfortunately, the Jefferson quote is
bogus. I've learned to be very skeptical of quotes attributed (especially) to the founding fathers, and check them out before taking them as genuine.
The graphics are quite nice, but in the future (say with the proposed bumper sticker), perhaps you could post your design for review before actually incurring the cost of printing.
Sorry.
Thanks for the input. Regarding the quotes, I was going for something neutral that would appeal to all.
Cost?
As far as the price to do this, its costing me about $23 per banner between shipping, printing and labor (and the copy of the constitution i put in each box). And i've sent out a lot between the two forums i'm posting it on, and havent taken a penny for any of it. My wife screams at me for it, but what is the cost of our freedom?
Why a Thomas Jefferson quote?
Its historic. If you don't know where you came from, how are you supposed to know where you are going? I feel this is a pivotal point in our countries future. Its the fork in the road that determines where we will be 20, 30, 50 years from now. This is not just about Guns. Its about some people wanting to change everything so they have a feeling of accomplishment. But its done in a knee jerk fashion with out thinking it through. Its about changing too much of a good idea and ending up back exactly where you started. This country was created by those who wanted to escape tyranny, dictatorship, and to gain total freedom and liberty for all. Now it seems that certain people want to push their beliefs and feeling down everyone's throats, be taken care of on every front, expect everything from their government, expect a 100% perfect life, and have someone else pay for it. No personal responsibility and no accountability. Well, Life is not perfect. There will be speed bumps, and even the occasional pot hole. Get used to it.
We are going backwards. Its ironic because our ancestors left Europe and elsewhere to come to america in hopes for a free and better life....now we're pointing back and saying "we want that now" ........its so upsetting. So again, another quote from TJ on why, even though there are senseless gun deaths, we should not restrict the 2nd amendment.
"The tree of liberty needs to be refreshed from time to time with the blood of tyrants and patriots...it's it's natural Manure". God Help Us.
