#1 - How do we (2A) navigate the election cycle differently in 2022 / 2024 ?
Edgar – Choosing leaders that are non-2A
Me – Gun People vs 2A People
Clover – The old Media is drowning and flailing to keep relevant
-“Legacy Media”
- CNN is flipping now
- Working with kids, makes it apparent they are making their own choices
- politicians play the ‘parent role’
- Kids understand the BS right away
EyeOnTheTargetRadio - i think the growth of women shooting groups, and the growth of CCW in all states will work toward more relaxed gun laws. They are now saying - Hey, that is my gun you are talking about.
How will the kids react?
Will they just break the law? Or Run for office and change things?
Clover – Depends on where, need to get the establishment out
Edgar – the kids are willing to push the envelope for a reason, to make a statement
- the youth are using the ‘cancel culture’ against the anti’s
My theory of Hacking 2A?
Will it happen sooner or later?
Edgar – How do we keep the new waves fresh
-
Clover – Already happening, and its organic
- we should let it happen organically
My point = Our military learned what created PTS & have changed the methods, we can d the same
#2 What Skill Sets do 2A Advocates need in 2022 ?
Edgar – Willingness to put in the work
- Understanding it is an amount of effort
Clover – Agree with Work Ethic Edgar mentioned
- Understanding the positions of the other side is vital
- Creating & connecting needs with solutions in our gn community
- Using technology to increase your voice
EyeOnTheTargetRadio - Skill sets needed - communication skills that include speaking to others in a manner where you bring them along, get them up to speed so they can be an asset also. many 2A folks talk down to others - I have had multiple times where folks have blown by me in a conversation because they did not think I 'got it' or could keep up with the technical aspects. If they do it to me - who else are they doing it to?
Edgar – We follow the mainstream trends, what suffers is the growth in the community
- at the mercy of the news cycle
I’ll add – learn to use the Social Platforms as Tools & Use them
- Anyone from a oppressed society is one of best allies for 2A, rights & participation
- Edgar’s point is what I call “programming”, Gun Community give us all a place to learn about each other & who each other are & what we value
#3 What Resources do 2A Advocates need in 2022 ?
Clover – Money / Time – Not a Bloomberg but a crowd
Edgar – Funding
My point = Alt Funding Strategies
- 2A Financing Funds
- Harvest the bit-coin profits
- We talked briefly about James Yeager R.I.P.
#4 Best 2A Accomplishment of 2022 (so far) ?
Edgar – Bruin (New York State Rifle & Pistol Assoc)
#5 Worst 2A Loss of 2022 (so far) ?
Edgar – the amount of power ATF is flexing without response
