AR15's make me :-)
I hear advertising on the radio and see it on TV for various causes but never anything regarding Maryland's rediculous gun laws. Running ads with statistics about murders and rapes dropping in the majority of the country as citizens are allowed to protect themselves by carrying a firearm should help our cause. I talk to people constantly about how restrictive and absurd MD's gun laws are and most are surprised to hear that MD is in a shrinking minority of states that DON'T allow open/concealed carry.
I find that some people are so brain washed they cannot be reasoned with but most end up shocked at the numbers. If you believe the crime statistics from the Governor's office in 2010 there were 426 murders, 1,228 rapes and 18,898 aggravated assaults. From John Lott's research murder drops by 10%, rape by 3% and aggravated assault by 6% when citizens can obtain a permit to carry. My ad's would let everyone know the blood is on Senator Frosh and Governor O'Malley's hands. Just in 2010 alone 42 people would still be alive if it weren't for them blocking our rights. 37 fewer women would be raped and 1,134 people wouldn't have had to fear for their lives while being assaulted.
Sorry for the rant but this burns me up. The NRA seems pretty well funded these days...does anyone know if they support ad campaigns in state issues like this?
