Got this from another board...

------------------------------

Those of you who live in big cities may remember seeing dollar bills that were stamped GAY DOLLAR. This was to remind everyone of the buying power of the gay community. This made a lot of people wise up that at least they better be nice to gays if they didn't want so suffer economic consequences. These stamps (among other actions) also raised the visibility of gays to a level not known before. In any case, you see the result. In Illinois you have a Republican governor trying to pass a gay rights bill. Members of his closest staff are openly gay. Gun owners? Not a one in sight...at least not one who'll admit to it. Gun Rights? Sure, Governor Ryan will be happy to take them away! HOW TIMES HAVE CHANGED!

So, we are starting our own version of the GAY DOLLAR - We ordered our first batch of stamps and will be ready to ship them the Tuesday following Memorial Day. Here is what the stamp will look like:

GUN OWNER$

These are inkless stamps so you will have to get a red ink pad. These stamps are perfect for marking legal and tender things. The GAY DOLLAR was a huge success, I hope GUN OWNER$ will be too! can we duplicate that success? Gonna take a lot of stamps! You can get a stamp two ways:

1. Send a $15 donation (not tax deductible thank you very much!) to Concealed Carry, Inc., PO BOX, 4597 Oak Brook, IL 60522-4597 and I'll send a stamp. If you send less, I'll probably send a stamp anyway. Concealed Carry, Inc. is paying $5.50 per stamp (I know, someone out there can get them for less!). If you want more than one stamp, call me and we can work out a much lower rate. We are going to contact the bank about taking Visa/MasterCharge today. For now, we have to do this the snail mail way.

2. Go to your local Office Supply shop and tell them to make a stamp that says GUN OWNER$ in 18 Point Helvetica Bold Font. If you get a self-inking stamp request red ink. Please note: We mentioned that gays used to stamp money. While we don't recall any of them being arrested for doing so, we re not telling anyone how to use this stamp nor suggesting it be used to stamp anything "Legal and Tender."

If you would...pass this on to other lists that may be interested in participating in our little act of rebellion.

Nothing threatens freedom so much as self rightous ignorance.
 
I believe you can stamp just about anything on paper money that does not deface it to the extent that one can not tell it is money.

Good idea, with the GUN OWNER$ stamp. I think I'll go for a locally made self inker, they are normally small enought to carry and the ink supply is protected. Then to the bank and get $100.00 in ones, stamp the suckers and spend away.

I'm on it already. Let's do it. It won't be painted in a kind light by the media, but we aren't trying to give the media a message. We are trying to give companies and store owners a message. Maybe local-level polititians as well.
Things trickle up sometimes, and again, it's better than nothing.
 
Of course you can do the same with a felt tipped pen if you dont want to buy a stamp.
Felt tipped markers can be found in or around most any desk in most any office.

Go ahead and start autographing your bills right now.

I ask the moderators to shut down this thread to stop the raving of another homophobic bigot.

The idea is to mark bills with an indication of support for the RKBA - not to
listen to crap like this.

Everytime, a so-called supporter of the RKBA spouts crap like this - we probably convince some undecided folks that we are too stupid and racist to have guns.
 
ShallCarry, thank you for posting this, and a HOO-AH to www.concealcarry.org for coming up with the idea. Note that they are now set up to take online orders for the stamps.

I'm in. We will raise awareness and have fun at the same time.

For one thing, this has already been discussed, just a few days ago. Look for the thread "Stamp Act 2000," or some such.

For another, the interjection of the WAY off-topic post above is out of place for TFL and only serves to damage our fragile alliance.

Closed.
