The Brady Campaign Needs Your Help Now!!!

[cambeul41]

Hey, there's a Nigerian guy offering me lots of money. Maybe I should forward him to the Brady campaign and they can help each other out!

Splendid idea! Let's all do it!

Helmke v Lapierre on Hardball right now!

Poor Brady campaign. Don't they always need money? I guess they have to pay someone to post all that drivel on their website... They also probably need money for payments for the Ivory Towers they live in. Poor babies.

Poor babies is right. Poor misinformed babies. They even had the guts to challenge the United States Constitution and the Peoples' Rights.

We should all donate a PENNY from each credit card we own.

It will cost them more in back fees & Transaction cost than the money they collect.

We could bankrupt them by donating

that is a GREAT idea. totally cost them money but they may have a min that ensures they get something

We disagree with the Court’s decision giving individuals a right to possess guns for private purpose.

That's from the Brady newsletter. Enough said.

yep. if you didn't know their true goal already, there it is plain as day. no matter what they claim about reasonable restrictions, their goal is to ban all private firearms ownership. it's funny that they usually try to hide that fact. but responding to this decision forced them to state their true goal plainly.

Here's one of the examples the Brady Bunch is using to drill home their facts. This thing is 18 pages so you can feel free to read all of it. If in I'll highlight the important parts. Please note the title. I did and want to pass it on.

ASSORTED CRIMES AND MISDEEDS BY CCW LICENSEES

The first sentence:

The gun lobby claims that only “law-abiding citizens” receive carrying-concealed weapons
(CCW) licenses, and that because licensees are “law abiding,” having more people carrying
loaded, hidden firearms will make society safer. Both claims are patently false.

No references at all that this had anything to do with a CCW licensee.

In other words over half had nothing to do with "CCW licensee misdeeds".
If you read the other reports they cite there some pretty big holes in most of them.

From now on, we must be ever more vigilant, always on the lookout for more Brady lies. They will be getting desperate for publicity, especially after today, and they might even resort to more outlandish claims and sob stories.

 

[fletcher]

^^ Even if all that was true, that's what, 20 out of how many hundreds of thousands?

 

[Geno]

Each of us should invest in a 100-count roll of stamps, print out 100 copies of "...the right of the people..." and send it to the Brady Bunch...with no check.

Am I mean-spirited?

If I knew they didn't have some sort of 'safety net' to ensure against that hurting them...
