Well, well, well!
Looks like El Jefe got an "unintended" link!
What are you talking about? We are already "hoodlums"...

I'm for more cyberterrorism if it can help us out. We already ARE the enemy, so we've got nothing to lose by subverting the anti propaganda.
Gun owners, as I've read somewhere, are generally way more active in cyberspace than the antis (probably due to the fact that a prehensile tail isn't the best instrument for using either a mouse or keyboard for the non-bepedal, non-opposable thumb crowd subsumed by the antis), and this is a MAJOR advantage to us.
We may come off as thugish, but the net is the only place where we can air our views effectively (We can't afford TV, unless it is the midnight slot where the NRA runs its infomercials), so even if we don't change the minds of anyone by these attacks, we at least stop the flow of misinfo.
Cyberterroism is something that can be done without the moral qualms that come from actual terrorism. Anyhow, we know that the genuine article has been effective (i.e., the Haganah getting the Brits out of Israel and the PLO forcing the Israelis to negotiate back the West Bank and Gaza).
Flame away.

I'm opposed to this sort of thing. Remember, what's good for the goose is good for the gander. Robert
The best defense is a good offense. I fully expect leftist retribution, cyber and otherwise for this act. But, then we have to endure a fusilade of lies no matter what.
However, I think it is a wake up call to the NRA's computer security team to beef up the firewalls.
Further, I think some of us are all wet in our line of thinking. We shouldn't attack and hope the enemy won't do the same? Asinine.
Not every leftist is a knuckle-drager who can't use a mouse. I'm surprised that this hasn't happened before to us, but then the majority of our opposition are suburban hausfraus.

Hey everyone, I think you'll find that that site is a SPOOF site, NOT a hacked site.
The Violence Policy Center apparently didn't register VPC when they got their website.
This site has been like this for the past couple of months, and the Violence Police Center has a web site already...
------------------
Beware the man with the S&W .357 Mag.
Chances are he knows how to use it.

2:42 p.m. and still not fixed. Do these guys ever check their site? And does it draw any hits from anti-gunners who would alert them to the hack?
