Yeah this is the part that bothers me:
"according to opencarry.org, which is a loosely organized Web forum for the movement."
To be honest with everyone here, IMHO this doesn't look so good but the fact is, it is true.
We need to be more organized. We need to be able to work together and be more professional on this forum. Everyone is watching and when we bicker back and forth constantly it looks like we are very unorganized.
I wish the creators of this site would create a sub forum. One that is not seen by people that are not members. Then when there is a disagreement it can be taken into the sub forum and discussed there instead of right here in front of God and everybody else.
There are some of us, myself included, that have been very petty when it comes to responding to other peoples comments.
We need to be more aware of how these responses come across to those who may be browsing the site.
Who cares if someone missed a post or misspelled an word like "fire arm" (firearm) or
how many posts they have, or what their job is, or what kind of firearm they carry, coat they wear, car they drive, food they eat, yada yada yada.
We are all brothers (and Sisters)in arms here. At this point and time some very important changes are coming about for our cause ( McDonald, GFSZ Suit). The last thing we need to be doing is be arguing among ourselves and letting these important opportunities slip by because we have become distracted.
Think of it as if you were out OCing. Know your surroundings and what is going on around you.
Some of us here submit postings that may contain matter that others may not understand simply because our work or adult background has found us in an area where"bigger words" are used. We need to remember that this is a forum for all of the general public to view.
Use words that the "general public" can understand. It is the only way we will properly educate them on the issues of gun rights and the inept gun control laws of this state or any other for that matter.
In fairness, for those of you who do not understand what a word means.... Ask!
It is always OK to learn something new.
I have met some very good people on here and I am referring to each and everyone of you. Brass, Glock34, Doug, Lammie, BNH, Hugh Jarmis, Shotgun, MX, Mike, JPierce and the list is just too long to remember everyone at this point. But I am referring to all of you. Everyone here has something valuable to contribute no matter what your personal, political or religious beliefs may be. We can all be different and still work together so with that in mind. Can we please try to be a little more conscious of who may be reading our posts?
I am as guilty as anyone of arguing on here about politics and other things. I am the first to admit that.
we must remember that just because someone disagrees with our views whether they are political, religious or social, it doesn't mean they are wrong and a menace to this forum. If we can't stand strong in this forum, what does that tell the world outside of this forum?
OCDO and WisconsinCarry.org need to show the world that more than anything, we stand strong together in our cause to educate everyone on our 2nd Amendment Rights and all of our other Rights as well. That we will come together and stand up for violations of other peoples Rights. And our voices will be heard! We need to show them that we are not going to stand idly by while our members or even nonmembers get pushed around just like some of the members here did in Sussex ( Bravo to you all, you did us proud).
We as brothers and sisters of the cause and members of two very strong organizations (OCDO/WCI) need to lead this grassroots movement and show our legislators that if they do not want to stand up with us then they are against us and we will campaign with all of our might to have them ousted from office for being violators of our Constitutions.
That means we Pickett in front of their offices and form campaigns to influence voters to not vote for the violators. Lets take all of this energy we use fighting with each other and focus it on fighting the violators of the Constitutions.
What say Brothers (and Sisters)?
