I expect it to be hostile territory, and hosted by the brainwashed.
If you can skillfully articulate a logical point and are effective at overcoming the emotional's irrational arguments, this could be fun.
Actually, an emotional approach is better. People take sides based on how it makes them feel.
For example, see the following arguments:
- "Crime statistics show only 5% of gun crimes were committed using so-called assault weapons. If we rule out suicides and focus on murders, then it's only 1%."
Impact: Crime? Murder? Assault? Suicide? BAD feelings. This guy is bad. I feel stupid. This stuff is bad. BAN it.
- "I spent a week learning how to use a military rifle to protect my family. Now, here's a photo of my son. Shouldn't I have the right to pass on that skill to him?"
Impact: Wow, this guy is the protector of his loved ones. He LOVES his son. I'll let him teach his son. GOOD feelings.
- "Here's a photo of my military rifle. I call her "Emma". I spent two years optimizing, coating, and finding the perfect load for her. Now, people want to take her away. Shouldn't I have the right to pursue my hobby?"
Impact: He LOVES Emma. GOOD feelings. Who am I to take that away?
Any presence is good, but let's avoid the witty debate. Let's engage feelings. That's how we'll win.
After looking into "The Process Work Institute" and seeing it's comprised of paper doctors and internationalists, I suspect it will be a discussion about how to best manipulate the populace into giving up their rights.
The organization just has a bit of a globalist feel to it.
We'll see.
I've posted it on the Oregon Tea Party Facebook page, and alerted a few other individuals.
It'll be interesting to hear what who has to say about the subject, whatever the situation.
I figure at best, it'll be an example of the Delphi Technique.
Call me crazy, but to some groups, "open forum" seems to mean, it's open for people to listen to predetermined conclusions.
They expect us, as gun owners, and pro 2A people, to be hot headed and volatile. When we are rational and calm, it frys them.
