A WASTE OF TIME -- or ESSENTIAL?

If you think getting Citizens Of America's PRO-SELF DEFENSE, PRO-FIREARM RADIO and PRINT ads out to the national public is a WASTE OF TIME, then you disagree with every product manufacturer, every service company, every political party, and every non-profit organization in the world.

In other words you are WRONG -- because advertising WORKS, whether its toothpaste or fundamental philosophical issues.

And you're wrong at a critical time -- with ELECTIONS coming up.

OUR GOAL -- OUR METHODS

COA intends to radically change the public perception of guns and gun control laws. How? The same way our enemies have changed this nation, politically speaking, from pro-gun to anti-gun -- by utilizing the MASS COMMUNICATIONS MEDIA.

On the surface, COA ads are about the right to own and carry guns, but their underlying message is about our natural right to self-defense, the impossibility of 24-hour government crime protection, the empowerment of criminals by disarming citizens, and about politicians elevating themselves above the people they were elected to serve. These issues get under EVERYONE'S skin.

For a more detailed explanation of our purpose, finish reading and then go to: "WHAT GOOD ARE COA ADS?" http://www.CitizensOfAmerica.org/whatgood.htm

YOU WANTED IT, AND HERE IT IS

Heard this from a gun owner before? "We have all the facts, the Constitution, and all the statistics on our side but the public never hears them! If only the NRA would stop preaching to the choir and get a pro-gun message out to the public, the political debate would change."

We heard it -- and said it -- too. So a group of dedicated activists founded Citizens Of America for this very purpose.

THE ADS

COA created strong, emotional, and factual radio and print ads that hit the gut and tell the TRUTH about how gun control endangers the public, especially women. About how politicians hypocritically expect you to disarm while they are protected 24 hours a day. About how criminals LOVE gun control.

We think the ads are VERY effective. OTHERS AGREE: pro-gun, pro-self-defense radio station managers run them for free in many places. Volunteers across the country are raising funds and running them locally. COA officers have been interviewed dozens of times on talk shows about the organization and our ads

To LISTEN to the radio ads, go to: http://www.CitizensOfAmerica.org/radio.htm

WHAT WE THOUGHT

Here's what COA founders thought: There are an estimated 80 million gun owners in America. If every one of them contributed just $1 a year we'd have least $80 million to run these ads across the country. In fact, if only one in a HUNDRED gun owners contributed a single dollar a year, we would have $800,000 to get the ads out.

But we've had to make do with less than a TENTH of that so far. Why? Because most gun owners who donate to the pro-Second Amendment cause send $35 to the NRA and figure they're done for the year.

Consider this comparison: the executive vice president of the NRA -- ALONE -- is paid more money IN FOUR MONTHS than COA has raised -- and put to work, HARD -- in nearly a year.

WHAT WE'VE DONE, WHAT WE CAN DO

In the ten months since we formed COA, this money has been used to produce and run our ads in 42 states on over 300 radio stations, and tens of thousands of our print ads have been distributed.

We don't waste it begging politicians to uphold the Constitution, we don't give it to politicians who have voted against our rights because they're the lesser of two definite evils, and we don't waste it sending out hundreds of tons of fundraising mail which asks for more money to send out a hundred more tons of fundraising mail.

Visit our website and see what we've done with a tight budget. Then imagine what COA could do if it were PROPERLY FINANCED.

Then ACT! SUPPORT Citizens Of America.

 QUOTES TO REMEMBER
By calling attention to a well-regulated militia for the security of the Nation, and the right of each citizen to keep and bear arms, our Founding Fathers recognized the essentially civilian nature of our economy. Although it is extremely unlikely that the fears of governmental tyranny, which gave rise to the second amendment, will ever be a major danger to our Nation, the amendment still remains an important declaration of our basic military-civilian relationships, in which every citizen must be ready to participate in the defense of the country. For that reason I believe the second amendment will always be important. --JOHN F. KENNEDY
