With all due respect we must use every tool at our disposal and that includes social media. Your already doing so just by being a member here. If you don't think this is social media or that it is not just as much or more of a target than Facebook then your sadly mistaken. 2 years ago the antis intentionally infiltrated this forum along with a few others to collect data (twisted but nevertheless) that they used to support I-594. As far as LEO's I'm not too concerned about most of them. Because of what I do it puts me in contact with them frequently and the majority are in our corner.
Yep. This is social media, but as I have been telling posters throughout this thread, I don't discuss the strategies on the Internet.
On Facebook you are not anonymous; here you are somewhat anonymous and if you work behind the scenes, you are a lot more effective.
As for LEOs, I work around them on an almost daily basis. I can't think of any major LEO organization that has come out against registration, bans, etc. Matter of fact, most of the major LEO organizations want gun control.
The typical strategies of voting, writing letters, making calls, etc. are necessary; however, they are not the strategies that result in net wins. If voting would change the bottom line, the powers that be would make voting illegal. The reality is the left gets more of their legislation passed than the right does. The right has become reactionaries.
What I'm suggesting involves the element of surprise. You cannot develop a counter to a surprise strategy. So, while you may want to argue with me, I'm telling people that want to do what you're doing - do so. It has to be done. If you want more; if you want to be effective, you will have to go beyond the required steps of general citizenry.
