krot5333,

Do you have any advertising/PR experience?
Since you won't listen to me, please consult an ad agency where you live.
Maybe they can convince you. Wouldn't you rather reduce the risk of wasting your money?

I would like to do what is best for Ron Paul.

I will look further into your suggestion.

in the meantime, people can keep on donating!

I really hope this can get funded. The Shotgun News has got a lot of readers.

i added military donations to the ad

I like the idea of a two page ad, one which attacks Giuliani, Romney, and McCain and the second one being the pro-gun Ron Paul ad that you have come up with. It would cost double but I think that would drive both points home really well. I've already donated $20 though and am happy to see this project go forward in any way. Thank you Krott!

stuff to work with on Giuliani:
In this video Giuliani endorses Senator Moynahan's proposal for a TEN THOUSAND percent tax on ammunition.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZDjGnGCygs

"...some of the proposals of Senator Moynahan to add taxes to a lot of the ammunition to reduce the level of ammunition. All of that will help."

He also says:

"We have a horrendous number of guns in this country."

"The more we can reduce the large number of handguns in our society, the faster we are going to start moving this in the right direction."

"It makes much more sense to have a program in which we take guns out of society.."

Another video : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=emeu2KRt2Vg

He says:

"...therefore a person who wants to possess a handgun should pass a written test, should be able to pass a physical test in the actual use of the gun, and should have to demonstrate good moral character and a reason to have the gun. That those should be, essentially there should be a uniform law passed by congress that says every state has to adminster that."

"... and I've been arguing for that since at least 1980."

Another video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zs5DxwzEXHQ

In that one, Benito Giuliani announces his lawsuits against the gun industry.

Yet another video where Benito Giuliani announces his anti-gun beliefs and opposition to the NRA:

Bump

 

[JimDude]

you know what? I like it.

 

[sluggo]

Well, whatever the ad ends up being, we need to do it QUICK. I'll donate more for the cause this weekend.

 

[Smiley Gladhands]

Is the chipin meter moving up? It still looks like it's at $80 (for the past couple days), unless I'm doing something wrong.

 

[sluggo]

Clear your cache. Mine says 210.

 

[Smiley Gladhands]

Thanks. I thought I checked it on multiple computers but I guess I didn't.

Carry on....



Everyone, chip in to the gun ad!!!!!

 

[krott5333]

Well, whatever the ad ends up being, we need to do it QUICK. I'll donate more for the cause this weekend.

its going in the January 20th SHOTGUN NEWS. As previously stated, its one of the few glossy perfect bound editions which typically sell more, and its the edition that will be distributed by the thousands at the annual SHOT Show (Shooting/Hunting/Outdoor Trade). Its where all the manufacturers show off their new toys for the year.

The Shooting, Hunting, Outdoor Trade Show and Conference (SHOT Show) is the largest and most comprehensive trade show for allprofessionals involved with the shooting sports and hunting industries. It is the world's premier exposition of combined firearms, ammunition, archery, cutlery, outdoor apparel, optics, camping and related products and services. The SHOT Show attracts buyers from all 50 states and more than 75 countries. The SHOT Show is owned and sponsored by the National Shooting Sports Foundation and is produced and managed by Reed Exhibitions.

Ive already been in contact with the advertising salesperson from Intermedia Outdoors, and the ad has been booked. Payment and artwork need to be submitted by December 17th at the latest, so we have little time to raise money.. and I wont upload the ad until a few days prior, just incase changes need to be made.

Donated! Its really important to target gun owners. If most gun enthusiasts vote Ron Paul, we win.

Krott,

This ad needs someone good with layout and fonts to take a look at it and revise it. Linda Laguna in New Hampshire (Papergraphics) is very good at this. She is the same person who has laid out the Mosaic flyers, the Founding Father flyers, the ads we ran in the New Hampshire newspapers and the Founding Father ad run in USA Today.

I'll bet she would be happy to help you with this, if you'd just ask her.
