The powers that be believe our fight against UPS is futile and therefore it may be time to end it. But we have good news from FedEx when it comes to shipping handguns. News at the "package" icon at:
National CCW Reciprocity Foundation http://www.NationalCCW.com

Plus a new book review

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>It is sad to report that the UPS boycott has fizzled & therefore is being called off. The gun community did not have the same effect... Although the boycott is over, we still urge you not to do business with UPS or Airborne Express.[/quote]

Who says it is being called off? Who says it is over? Are you calling this off, NationalCCW?

I'd just like to know who's throwing in the towel on my behalf! :mad:

I will avoid UPS too. The powers that be can screw themselves, we'll keep at em.

I guess I'd like to know a little more about your organization, Nat'l. Is there a board of directors or something that decided to end the boycott? Or are you, personally, using the royal "we," as in "We are not amused?"

Hmmm...Mebbe I'll reduce my font size and poke around your site a while... :)

Do you know when they switched? I've been a customer for 2 years now and they've always used FedEx.

Devin, not sure when they switched. Been within the last four years tho I think, maby more recent than that.

National CCW Reciprocity Foundation was founded to lobby politicians toward pro-Second Amendment positions. Our main goal is to achieve some national ccw reciprocity law in the near future, however we also lobby for other types of pro-gun laws. We also serve as an information source like the NRA to our viewers. By posting news or alerts the viewers can be informed into taking actions with their own elected officials, much like the NRA. Unlike the NRA we do not ask for money, we are funded by private individuals who are "of means". This frees us from begging like some other political organizations. We also derive income from advertizing. No one here is paid more than a $1, so all funds go toward political activity. Our non-tax exempt status allows us to shield who we are, who contributes money, and how we spend our money, which is an advantage to other organizations. We are collecting a short list of politicians who will receive monetary support from us. News of this and the release of funds should happen this month. We will release a voters guide in September or October, listed there will be candidates who have received funding from NCRF. Later.

OMG, NationalCCW actually replied to his own thread!

Don't overreact. He always replies when people question him. Of course that is the ONLY time he ever contributes but hey... Who am to judge.
 
Why is everyone busting this guy's nuts so hard?

He does the same thing the rest of us do, posts pertinent information.

I actually find his website to be fairly informative, and even more important, pretty comprehensive on the different things that are always flying around.

Even NRA's site doesn't have some of the information that this site does.

I THINK we're all on the same side here, guys...

Beware the man with the S&W .357 Mag.
Chances are he knows how to use it.
 
Haven't used UPS since the Fall of '99 when they stopped accepting my handguns. I am glad to learn FedEx will take my sidearms -- they will get all my business (not to suggest it's very much).

First time I've seen it.

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Why is everyone busting this guy's nuts so hard?[/quote]

Well, because he tries to incite people over things and then is absolutely completely unwilling to argue about it in some threads. It's annoying. Part of the charm of a BBS like this is to have discourse, not propaganda. Information that isn't allowed to be dissected in ultimately not as credible.

What is with you, Dangus? The fellow is providing useful Pro-Gun information, IMHO. It is not his job to debate it with YOU! You can accept or reject it on it's own merits. National CCW doesn't have to justify anything. He is providing a service! Nuff said!!
