cking Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 PLEASE PASS ON Sarah Brady is sending supporters a link to an on-line survey asking them (as a faithful friends) to answer the questions and help guide the Brady Campaign in their dealings with Congress and state legislatures. Being a democratic guy, I feel compelled to share this with others concerned about the gun control issue so the Brady's get a very clear picture of just what the public really thinks about their issues. Follow this link and answer Sarah Brady's survey: http://www.bradynetwork.org/site/PageServe...rioritiesSurvey The "Name", "Address", and "Email" request at the top can be left blank. If you enter an e-mail address, they might put you on their mailing list so you can keep tabs on their activities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtypool40 Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 I notice they don't display results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KAL Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Well I went and took the survey and I thin we all should but I expect our answers to be thrown out or left out of their finished product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zhunter Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Done, I doubt they will like my answers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
open17 Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 (edited) Done, I doubt they will like my answers. Ya think? "3 days AFTER hell freezes over" wasn't on the answer list, so I chose the answer closest to that. "Keep your friends close and your enemies closer" seems like good philosophy, so I did fill in the name and e-mail fields. I hope they keep me well informed of what they are up to! Bill Just got this from the Brady Bunch: "Thank you for participating in our 2007 Legislative Priorities Survey, your feedback will help the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence get a strong start to the new year. We are so grateful for your support." Must be an auto-reply e-mail---if they are truly grateful for my answers they are smokin' the GOOD stuff!

Middle Man Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Done, I doubt they will like my answers. I really hate how they talk about me, being a nasty gun distributor, as if I was satan's handpuppet...it's beyond insulting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubber Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 I did the survey without filling in the name portion and it took the survey and thanked me and then asked for a donation. So they already have the answers they want and missed the last question. "Are you still beating your wife?" More @##$%% Stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Keen Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 I was concerned they would throw out the STRONGLY DISAGREE answers so I only put DISAGREE as my responses. Then I put my ex-wifes email address down ................ That'll teach her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GentlemanJim Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 I hope lots of us do the survey it should skew the outcome much closer to reality! JIm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shootingchef Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 I did the survey, quite leading but I agree hopefully we can skewer the facts alittle. But then I read the rest of the site and some of the "facts" quoted and double checked with government records and dang if they ain't lying. I was do ready to support these misguided fools only to find they are the devil in wolfs clothing. Anger is the least of my emotions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hitman Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Did it 25 times. Why because I am satan's handpuppet. Did I say that out loud? Opps sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMH Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 I also got a lovely return from "StoptheNRA.com" asking for a donation. I'm hoping our responses skew the results and kill their survey but it may be possible that anyone who goes on their site is logged as a supporter.

Pigdawg Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 That survey looks like just a tool to get email addresses to send out more BS to. I hope everyone uses a email they don't use very often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big_kahuna Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Entered my name and email addy. Answered all the survey questions honestly. Got the canned response. Declined to provide a donation. I imagine they will try to contact me at some point. I wonder if they will read my inputs and figure out that I am not their "target audience".

G-ManBart Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Done....wow were those questions misleading! I just read an article published by the Bureau that studied actual bad guys that shot cops. They described 45 cases where officers were shot and studied them in depth by interviewing the bad guys. Turns out that ONE of the guns was purchased legally and NONE were purchased at gun shows. Hmmm....you mean most of the time bad guys buy guns illegally??? <Gasp> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan W Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 (edited) took the survey - got the stopNRA email - sent a reply stating I don't support their agenda and told them I was donating to the NRA - then I made another donation to the NRA https://membership.nrahq.org/forms/donate.a...paignID=default Edited March 1, 2007 by Bryan W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dajarrel Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 I took the survey. I'm sure it will be thrown out. Most surveys I've seen throw out the extream highs and lows and work from the more median responses. Mine were kinda on the extream end. I almost wish I hadn't seen this thread. It makes me ill to read such drivel and then I'm pi$$ed off the rest of the day. But I have a long ride to work. I'll get over it. dj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cking Posted March 1, 2007 Author Share Posted March 1, 2007 (edited) The question are so badly written that anybody who verifies stats. Would call the whole unsound, misleading and biased. Kinda like one of surveys where you ask poor kid where does he eat in parlor, sitting room, or dining room. Edited March 1, 2007 by cking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim James Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 (edited) Come on guys, no one really needs 10 guns a month! And I didn't know that four in ten guns are solid with absolutely no background check. None!! By working together, we can create a nation free from gun violence, where all Americans are safe at home, at school, at work, and in their communities.I would love to work together with the Brady Campaign to prevent violent crime, but it seems like all they want to do is hack at the leaves.

38superman Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 (edited) No poll is valid if it doesn't randomly sample the participants. The Brady campaign soliciting opinions from their supporters on gun control is ludicrous. It's tantamount to standing in a meat market and polling the customers on whether they eat meat or are they vegetarians. The results are meaningless. Each question is prefaced by a leading (and questionable) assertion. Examples: "Gun crime has gone up since the AWB expired". Do you think bringing it back should be a priority? "There is no reason for a legitimate gun owner to buy 10, 20 guns at a time". Do you think there should be limitations placed on this? What about someone who wants to buy a whole collection from an estate? Is that not a legitimate reason? This isn't a poll. It's propaganda. Okay Flex, once again I have strayed into the realm of a political thread. Forgive me for I have sinned. Feel free to slap my wrists before closing the thread.

Remember all criminals and people with criminal intent are dumb enough to go out and buy the weapon from a gun store or gun show, instead of getting them illegally, which is most of the time easier, safer and cheaper for them. Why would they do that?!? *sarcasm* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
