I found myself at their site after following some links and found this page:
Rand Paul and Guns Stall Extension of the Patriot Act
Are you serious? Do they not realize that their core constituency is aging hippies who hate Israel, loathe corporations, and want to protest against the man?
Just try clicking on the profiles of some of the public supporters of the Starbucks Boycott and checking out their political views. This is not a neocon crowd here. Even Facebook knows this. When I linked to their facebook page (which, by the way, is overrun with pro-2A spam) I got an ad for what looks like something sold at the local hippie hemp store:
Talk about audience analysis fail. With the limited crowd of supporters that their facebook page seems to draw you think these gun control nuts would be making arguments about disarming people to further social justice and how Israelis carry firearms for personal protection and thus firearms are bad and so on, not agitating for a renewal of the civil-liberties crushing Patriot Act with mouth-frothing enthusiasm. I really have to question the professionalism and marketing acumen of the gun control lobby these days.
