MAUSER PROTEST

National Tyranny Response Team ^

[longdistance50cal]

ALERT ALERT ALERT ALERT

It looks like it is time for some street theater TRT style.

Thats right folks the TRT is back at it again we are holding a protest. This time we have located our tyrant and we are heading to his home. This is the man who wants to abolish all guns in the United States. He has stated this. He has also publicly trashed the Tyranny Response Team and all other patriot groups. He has come out in public and blamed the NRA and "Gun Nuts" for the death of his son. It's time for the talk to end and action to start.

Who is this man you ask? Well it is Colorados own Tom Mauser. We will be heading to Tommy boys house and holding a protest right in front of it. Bring your bull horns bring your posters. Remember this is the man who brought us all Amendment 22, he is an avid supporter of SAFE, MMM, and Do It For The Kids.

We will be meeting at 6:30pm on Friday December 14, 2001. Parking is available in a strip mall parking lot with in easy walking distance of Tommys house. I will send maps later. This should be a great show. We are going back to our roots and taking this one on in the true style of the TRT.

Pass this alert on to all of your friends and lets get it posted around the net.

THIS IS A REALLY BAD IDEA !!!

Protesting against the father of a Columbine victim in front of his own home is monumentally stupid. You are handing the liberal press ammo they will use against us. Have you taken a moment to think how the story will be written by columnists and newswriters in the media ??? Please don't do this, it's going to backfire badly.

I agree, sorry to say. The press is probably 90% stacked against us, and are just waiting for something egregious to happen so they can resume the slander.

I've been in the RKBA fight since 1967, and these people never go away, and never stay silenced for long.
Tread with caution on this one, please.

[Vigilant1]

A big BANG! that will hopefully kill this ill-advised idea dead.

[TC Rider]

Would it not be better advised to confront Mauser in a public forum, rather than taking it in front of his home? I understand your feelings, I just think it would play better in the press. Otherwise he's the martyr and we're 'extremists'.

do it in public, not at his house.

In the '40's and '50's moderate civil rights organizations like the NAACP made slow or no progress toward acheaving their goals. Then in the '60's, organizations like the Black Panthers and SNNC (not equating the two, but they were much more aggressive and in your face) made Martin Luther King look much more reasonable to the powers that be. The TRT can perform this service for the NRA.

Mauser has chosen to bandage his wounds with the shreded bits of my liberty. He is no more justified than would be a crime victim calling for stripping anyone who looked like or shared a religion with his mugger, of rights. His loss does not give him leave to try to oppress me. Nor to try to hang the death of his son around the collective neck of gun owners.

I'm from Colorado, and I agree with Vigilant1. In thebattle for public opinion (which seems ruled entirely by heart and not head), this man who has lost a son at Columbine will always gain more support than will the fight to retain our liberties. FReepers will look like dangerous nutballs, and Mr. Mauser will look like a saint.

My child was murdered with a fence post. Following the liberals logic ALL fence post should be destroyed and banned. The argument that a weapon is to blame is just a piece of liberal bull hockey.

IF the government really wanted to reduce crime they'd expedite and expand the use of the death penalty. Currently 1st degree murderers serve about 5-6 years of their sentences. They'd keep criminals in prison for their full sentences.

The general rule of thumb is that 33% of ALL crime is committed by a government supervised felon on probation or parole. BUt it can be as high as 45% of ALL crime is committed by a UNLICENSED, UNREGISTERED, GOVERNMENT SUPERVISED FELON on parole or probation.

You are, of course, right on all points.

However, sometimes being right is not enough. There is nothing more traumatic for a parent than losing a child, regardless of the circumstances. Mauser has the sympathy of the press and probably a good bit of the public in Jefferson County. It's unfortuneate that he has chosen to turn to the gun-grabbers for comfort.

If he was appearing at some public rally, I would be one of the first in line to protest (if I was in Denver). IMHO, taking the fight to his home is a tactical error, akin to kicking a cripple.

I'm assuming of course that he's not having press conferences from his front porch. That would put a different light on it.

this is a pretty bad idea on several levels, all it would take is one little lie like "one of them was playing with his gun in front of my house" to turn this into a real pos. larger lies could end up in front of a judge since this could be taken as a threat- especially in this paranoid sociaty lately, and the nature of the person you are protesting. to me the larger issue is, where is the line between a political statment and a personal attack. i know i would take it personal if this happened to me. im not sure but the laws of some areas prohibit some kind of protests in residental areas too, since this is being done against a person and an issue, its not simple politics but is on a line that im not sure i would want to cross, or even get close to. the idea of protesting is to gain support and get attention to your cause. i think this would not end up doing either, but rather would give ammo to those who allready think us dangerous. im with the guy who says it should be done in a public place and not at a private residence, even if it is consitiutional. lister- trt oregon
