Champaign County Rifle Association (CCRA) in Illinois has placed "Burma" style signs throughout the state. It's a real pleasure driving through the state and seeing the pro-active actions these folks have done. Wish more gun clubs would do this.

BURMA-STYLE SIGN SLOGANS
GUN CONTROL
DISARMS VICTIMS
NOT CRIMINALS
(Our very first set)
GUN CONTROL IS
RACE CONTROL
NOT CRIME CONTROL
AND IT'S UNAMERICAN
(earned a front-page newspaper story w/ photos)
SOCIETY IS SAFER
WHEN CRIMINALS
DON'T KNOW
WHO'S ARMED
(front page newspaper article w/ photos)
WHEN GUN CONTROL
HAS US BEAT
CRIMINALS WILL
OWN THE STREET
THE RIGHT TO
CARRY FIREARMS
IS THE RIGHT TO
PROTECT YOUR FAMILY
EVERY YEAR
TWO MILLION TIMES
ARMED CITIZENS
PREVENT CRIMES
ARMED CITIZENS
CRIMINALS AVOID
IN 43 STATES
BUT NOT ILLINOIS
IN AUSTRALIA
CRIME WAS LOW
GUNS WERE BANNED
AND CRIME DID GROW
DISARMING VICTIMS
WON'T STOP CRIME
(posted where there was room for only two signs)
IF GUNS
CAUSE CRIME
MATCHES
CAUSE ARSON
YOUNG THUGS
WON'T DARE ATTACK
WHEN A TEACHER
MIGHT SHOOT BACK
GUNS ARE NEITHER
GOOD NOR EVIL
HOW THEY'RE USED
DEPENDS ON PEOPLE
SHOOTING SPORTS
ARE SAFE AND FUN
THERE'S NO CAUSE
TO FEAR A GUN
TELL YOUR SENATOR
WHEN HE RUNS
BAN THE CRIMINALS
NOT THE GUNS
DIALED 9-1-1
AND I'M ON HOLD
SURE WISH I HAD
THAT GUN I SOLD
(front page newspaper article)
VIOLENCE AROUND?
WE HAVE FOUND
FAMILIES WITH GUNS
SLEEP SAFE AND SOUND
SPREAD THE NEWS
LIKE PAUL REVERE
GUNS SAVE LIVES
THOUSANDS PER YEAR
OUR SECOND AMENDMENT
IS GUARDED FOREVER
BY CITIZENS PULLING
THE VOTING LEVER
MY MOM SLEEPS SAFE
SHE HAS NO FEAR
AND THAT'S BECAUSE
HER GUN IS NEAR
MY MOM SLEEPS SAFE
SHE HAS NO FEAR
THUGS STEER CLEAR
OR BANG THEY'LL HEAR
AS YOU CAN SEE
THUGS SPRAY LIES
HARD AS THEY TRY
FREEDOM WON'T DIE
GUN CONTROL
EVERY TIME
ONLY INCREASES
VIOLENT CRIME
CRIMINALS MENACING?
A LADY ALONE?
DETERRENCE REQUIRES
MORE THAN A PHONE
(newspaper story)
THE VILLAIN THOUGHT
HE'D PLAY ROUGH
UNTIL THE LADY
CALLED HIS BLUFF
WHEN DANGER LURKS
REMEMBER, SONNY
THAT RABBIT'S FOOT
WON'T SAVE NO BUNNY
VIOLENT THUGS
WON'T DARE ATTACK
IF THEIR VICTIMS
MIGHT SHOOT BACK
NO GUN HAS EVER
COMMITTED A CRIME
CRIMINALS DO
TIME AFTER TIME
POLICE RARELY
ARRIVE IN TIME
WHAT PROTECTS YOU
DURING THE CRIME?
TYRANTS AND CROOKS
LOVE GUN CONTROL
DISARMED VICTIMS
IS THEIR GOAL
ROSES ARE RED
MY GUN IS BLUE
I AM SAFE
HOW ABOUT YOU?
JANE SEES THUG
THUG SEES JANE
SEES JANE'S GUN
RUN THUG RUN!
TESTED IN PEACE
PROVEN IN WAR
GUNS IN THE HOME
EVEN THE SCORE
CROOKS ARE MANY
COPS ARE FEW
CROOKS CARRY GUNS
WHY CAN'T YOU?
IF A SAFE SOCIETY
IS WHAT YOU SEEK
IT WON'T HAPPEN
DISARMING THE MEEK
IN THE WORLD
IT'S PLAIN TO SEE
IF YOU'RE NOT ARMED
YOU CAN'T BE FREE
FROM 44 STATES
IT IS CLEAR
CITIZENS WITH GUNS
CRIMINALS DO FEAR
OUR MESSAGE IS
LEAN NOT FAT
GUNS SAVE LIVES
THAT'S PURE FACT
