COA PRINT ADS IN NH
A citizen who wishes to be identified as "The Hunter" paid to run
our "Gun/Phone" print ad (which -- if you have Adobe Acrobat -- you
can view here: http://www.citizensofamerica.org/COAGunPhone6x10Mod1.pdf.)
on July 5 in the following New Hampshire newspapers: The Hooksett Banner, The
Goffstown News, The Bedford Bulletin, The Bow Times. These papers have a
combined circulation of 37,000. Every person who reads one of these ads will
reconsider what "gun control" means, and who he or she votes for in
the next election. Great work, Hunter -- we admire people who backs their
beliefs with action.
COA IN THE UK
Of course websites are available the world over, but we're happy to say that
a UK-based website, TRUTHWARS.COM (and .NET) is using COA ads to fight for the
free exercise of the right of self-defense. Here's their links page URL: http://www.truthwars.com/html/links.html.
COA IN RUSSIA
We recently received, from Saratov and Minsk, requests for our COA videotape,
which displays alternating US flag graphics and has a continuous audio loop of
COA radio ads. This tape has been played as a "program" on community
access TV by citizens in locales around the country, and is also used to
introduce COA to the public at gun shows by playing it continuously at vendor
booths. We still don't know exactly what these gentlemen (who represent Russian
companies) want with the tape, but we're sending them copies.
COA INTERVIEW No. 1
A two-hour interview on COA, gun rights, and gun confiscation, hosted by Paul
Wybrant, was webcast on Crusade Radio ( http://www.crusaderadio.com)

interview are available at this site: http://www.patriots-of-the-republic.com/guestspeaker.html.
COA INTERVIEW No. 2
Terry Anderson, the "Prisoner of South Central" conducted a
45-minute interview COA president Brian Puckett on July 1 on KRLA 870 AM, Los
Angeles, a popular talk radio station.

PUT YOUR TAX REBATE TO WORK?
A COA correspondent and a radio show guest have both suggested that people
might use part of their income tax rebate to support COA's national ad campaign.
If you can afford to do so, we're for it, of course.
THANKS, RUSS and DEE
We again thank Russ and Dee Fine for their aggressive playing of COA pro-gun
ads on their radio show out of Birmingham, Alabama. Their also seen on WIAT-TV
Channel 42. Give their website a visit at http://www.russndee.net
COA DROPS PAYPAL
PayPal, a service we used which enables people to send money quickly and
easily over the internet, does not allow companies that sell guns, gun
accessories, or ammunition to use certain PayPal services. Therefore we will no
longer use them.
ARE YOU RUNNING COA RADIO OR PRINT ADS?
If so, either privately or on your radio show, we'd like to hear from you.
Thanks!
YOU CAN RUN COA ADS LOCALLY!
COA can't pay to run ads everywhere, all the time -- we need YOU to step up
and give us a hand. By doing so, you get our emotional, common-sense messages
out to the public AND you help publicize COA, thus generating more support for
our national campaign.
You can (1) ask your local radio station or favorite talk show host to play
COA ads as public service announcements; or (2) call up your favorite radio
station and asking how much it costs to run a one-minute ad -- and then TAKE
ACTION. If you don't want to work out all the details, send us the funds for the
ads, tell us which station, and we'll take care of everything else. ANY station
has permission to download our broadcast-quality MP3 ads from our website. If
they can't do so, we'll send them a CD of the ads. More info: http://www.citizensofamerica.org/RunOurAds.htm.
