Relatively simple things that there is NO WAY the message can be misconstrued.
Sponsor a Poker Run, Carshow or similar where the proceeds and donations are donated to the Aurora victims or similar.
Offer firearm awareness and safety classes for educational institutes at all level, even community colleges and the like.
God forbid another incident occurs but if it does, be just as vocal as the antis in decrying unwarranted violence against innocents.
Right now would be a great time to come out in support of the recall campaigns and show the REAL reasons for the recall, not as much the infringement of our rights, but rather that Morse and Giron (along with the rest that supported the agenda) refused to hear the voices of their constituents and Sheriffs and did not legislate in a fair and objective manner.
How about a message,publication or similar that illustrates the positives of firearm ownership.
Its not about the money. Its not about attacking and bitching about "Our Rights". Those things are easily dismissed by the Antis.
You need to work on "The Human Element". That's why the Antis are so successful at their message.
Fight smarter WITH other organizations instead of trying to play one upmanship.
We all have a common goal, work as a well oiled team to achieve that goal.

That's the only way to compete against a well oiled team like they are.
They got "game".
Do you?
This has been my 'beef' with ALL pro-2A orgainzations for years!! Where has the "pro-gun" 'indoctrination' been for all these years? There's been plenty, and I mean PLENTY of anti-gun indoctrination from the other side forever. Where are the stories, media outlets, photos, etc. from all these 2A organizations? Every time there's an anti-gun story, there should be five more pro-gun stories! Instead, all we get are 'lobbyists' and pleas for $$$! Almost every school has an anti-gun policy, zero tolerance, etc. Where'd that come from? Extortion from the administration by withholding $$$ if you don't comply, etc. Where are the "pro gun" tolerance policies? Where are the "gun accepted here" zones? How well publicized are they? etc. etc. etc.

We are our own problem, sometimes, because most conservatives just want to be left alone to live their lives in freedom. I think those days are gone. Time for the pro-2A orgs to all 'get along' and fight together. If you study history, you'll see just how well connected, organized and long-living the "antis" are! Their agenda will span multiple generations and be planned out for decades and decades. Just one example? Agenda 21. Started well before the 80's when they had the public conference in Brazil. Now fast-forward to today: it's in most school districts and in every 'planned community'!! It's insidious, spreads like cancer. We need to be the radiation!!
