Anti-.50 Cal crowd using over-the-top scare tactics

Wow... Notice they have no way of you contacting them on their page from what I could see. However they do have multiple links to give them money...

That site gave me a few good laughs. You guys see the banner about banning handguns in national parks! The bears are apparently stealing them and shooting people!


Edit: apparently it took me to their main site the first time i clicked, more of their organization can be seen here along with the worlds only IDPA champion bear!http://www.freedomstatesalliance.com/

Tracers are illegal in California and perfectly legal in several other states. Just like exploding fireworks are legal in other states and illegal here..

Yeah I know that, however they are constantly pointing stuff out and making blanket statements. For instance I think they went on about how the 50 BMG is illegal or banned or whatever but didn't bother to explain that people who had them prior to the ban can keep them if lawfully registered. It creates the impression that the next time you see someone with such a rifle you're looking at a law breaker which simply isn't the case, assuming they registered it.

I like the show, I nab it on my DVR and stuff, I'm not knockin it. Just pointing out that I dunno if they're really people you can count on to lobby in favor of gun stuff. I suppose we owe them some debt of gratitude because they've debunked the notion that normal arms have the power to fell buildings with a single round and such ;-)

I sent the "Freedom" States Alliance an e-mail and I eagerly await a response if they even give me one.

someone confirm the fact that it costs them money to receive a 1 penny donation.

make sure that they dont charge you for the credit card fees and let us know

would be a fun project, and tax deductable

[jumbopanda]

Yea if you could really drain their funds by doing this...I'd donate about $20 in 1 cent intervals. Just wanna make sure it doesn't backfire.
