Subdeacon Joe Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 This is an area where we are far behind the anits - use of social media in an effective way. We need to turn it around. http://gunssavelives.net/blog/white-house-planning-massive-anti-gun-social-media-campaign-lets-intervene/ The White House is using a Social Media service which is scheduling a massive Twitter/Facebook campaign. The campaign is designed to trigger automated messages on the pages of people who sign up at a designated time. Here is the URL for the campaign (DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR INFO):http://www.whitehouse.gov/issues/preventing-gun-violence/action?utm_campaign=nowisthetime They are going to “Twitter-bomb” Twitter and create a strong presence on Facebook. What we are proposing (hat tip: Reddit) is to take over their proposed hashtag. If you are on Twitter use the hashtag #NowIsTheTime on all of your Tweets. This is the hashtag they will be using. If you’re reading this site you can use the Tweet button at the topof the post to share any story on Twitter with the #NowIsTheTime hashtagprepopulated. Go to our Self Defense Story Archiveand Tweet as many stories as you can using the Tweet button at the topof each story (which will automatically include the hashtag). Do thisEVERY DAY while the new gun control bill is being debated in Congress.Show them what law abiding citizens with guns actually do. The White House is planning to use social media to make it appear they have more support than they do, don’t let them! Use #NowIsTheTime on all of your tweets, take it over. If you don’thave a Twitter account, create one now. You can do so anonymously. This plan is being organized on Reddit, Click Here to read the post. OWN THE LANGUAGE AND OWN THE DEBATE!

Subdeacon Joe Posted April 16, 2013 Author Share Posted April 16, 2013 You must be kidding This must be a belated April fools joke. Directly from http://www.whitehouse.gov/issues/preventing-gun-violence/action?utm_campaign=nowisthetime Since the tragic shooting in Newtown, Connecticut prompted a national call for action just over 100 days ago, thousands more Americans have been victims of gun violence. Every day we wait to do something about it, more lives are lost. In January, President Obama proposed a series of executive actions to help keep our kids and communities safe, and put forward a set of commonsense proposals for Congress to consider that can make a real difference in protecting our citizens from gun violence. But they are only going to act on them if they hear from the American people. You can also show your support by signing on through WhiteHouse.gov. Hardly an April Fools joke. Link to comment
Guest Texas Jack Black Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Not a massive anti gun media push Link to comment
Subdeacon Joe Posted April 16, 2013 Author Share Posted April 16, 2013 Not a massive anti gun media push I was unable to post other stuff from the page, step by step directions and such. Got the "too many images" notice. Go to the page, check it out yourself. What we, and others might call massive, you might call a drop in the bucket. But, the point remains that the White House is pushing a social media "event" for eliminating the 2nd amendment. Some of us think we should take a page out of the anti-civil rights lobbyist playbook and use it to our advantage. That's all. If you don't care to lend support to that, fine, your right not to support it. Link to comment
