Boston Herald today has an article talking about Boston PD's low rate in solving homicides. They are saying most of they ones they don't solve involve guns. Full court press by MCOPA, and some other group like Bloomberg to get their suitability back in. They never thought they would have to work like this until about 10 days ago. All of a sudden everyday there is an "article" which either directly or indirectly points to a "need" for more gun control. Disgusting. The worst part is the sheep eat this stuff up, most people don't even question how these issues are suddenly being brought to light.
didnt the nazis use the media as their propaganda machine?
It's called the goebbel's tactic
Something or someone got them all riled up... there's 9 other related articles in addition to the main one...

Yes, keep the pressure on. Want to multiply the pressure? Get on the radio, and ask people to call their reps/senators. Tell them to check goal.org and northeastshooters.com websites.
Here is a good place to call in to, and get some air play to this crisis:
Both of these shows are pretty open to calls, and to discuss gun topics. Bring up the whole irony thing about giving more powers of discretion/suitability (aka favoritism/bigotry/bullying), and the hypocrisy of giving them AWB access, while taking away our rights:

Ya gotta wonder if the Palmer vs. DC ruling has the conference committee re-thinking suitability... NAH, that would make too much sense!
Instead of wondering, you should call and write them, and ask them! First you have to give them the info. Just because YOU are connected to this does not mean THEY are on top of it. If you control the information flow, you have a better chance.
These newspapers get many of their scoops (stories) from the chiefs, or their designated spokesperson. If they don't support the chiefs, one of their primary sources of information may "dry up". They'll have little to write about. KISS ASSES!
So, GIVE THEM A STORY!!!!!! Write up some quotes and send to them. Ask for an interview. Arrange an interview with someone else. MAKE IT HAPPEN. If you bring stories to them, they will run them. It saves them from having to work, so they take the easy path. Do their job, and they will HELP YOU.
The silence from the conference committee is deafening. Has anybody seen/heard anything at all so far this afternoon?

I was just about to ask that same question.
I don't know if I read it here or in another post, but someone said the "other side" was seen all around the statehouse. Is OUR SIDE all around, spreading info, getting consensus, GETTING VOTES???? I sure hope so! Why don't we have a John Rosenthal or a Soros or Bloomburg to help our side? We need to convince GOAL to hire some professional fundraisers. If I were to join the GOAL BOD, that might be one of my first tasks.
