I am active in my local GOP party. We wanted to have a turkey shoot this year and I was asked to locate a facility. Every place I asked refused us. Some were athletic clubs, civic groups, etc. But the worst part is, I made requests to 3 gun clubs in our area and was refused by them as well. One would think a gun club would jump at the chance to promote and help with a shooting event, especially as the GOP generally supports gun rights.
Add this to the fact that I could not get some gunowners to vote in the 2008 elections. If and when we lose the 2A, I will not blame liberals as much as apathetic gunowners and the "gun establishments" that seem more interested in staying hidden than in helping when they could help influence public opinion for the good.
Any similar experiences out there?
