Social Media

[Subdeacon Joe]

I'm talking Facebook at the very least.

I see it frequently in the Saloon, "I don't do Facebook." Well, that's nice. You are missing out on a very valuable resource. It's a good bet that every one of your elected representatives has a Facebook page. Kind of an electronic "I Love Me" wall. They will post links to press releases, or quote them. Maybe brag about all the great stuff they've recently done, and all the "bi-partisan" legislation they have co-sponsored. Lots of people read the stuff. Quite a few of them comment. Especially about gun control.

If your elected representatives are antis, then you MUST be on Facebook, and maybe Twitter and other social media too. Be reasonably polite, post the truth, but don't be afraid to call a lie a lie, either. Counter the lies, hysteria, and fear-mongering that they put out. Have your friends post too. At the very least you will be showing some of the fence-sitters and lurkers that, contrary to what the antis say, 99 7/8% of all gun owners never misuse their firearms.

An easy way to take the fight to the enemy.
