"The Porcupine"?
or, how about something ironic, like "Reasonable and Sensible Gun Nuts"?
I'd love to help with a newsletter.mark wrote:BUT.... thanks for the kind words. Glad you are getting it. Sending out the newsletter before was a much larger pain - the new system is much better. And there was no way for users to selectively remove themselves from the newsletter yet still remain members, etc. Where we are going with this will make all of our lives easier in the long run.
Look for more newsletters in the future. In fact, once I get the software tweaked I am likely going to ask someone to help - which will just entail finding some links in the forum to post and write a sentence or two about.

While I really like all of the implications of this, for a gun organization to describe its political views in direct terms of armed conflict is a little too much like the wingnuts for my taste.Xela wrote:How 'bout something more in tune with the anti-phalangist past?

Gimme something better. My thought was that it was an organized group of people leading a charge... in this case against right wing crap. Clearly, that message didn't resonate.
Now, I have also learned that this thread will quickly devolve into splinter groups with wildly different ideas leaving no consensus and me back where I started - a semi-crappy title and nothing to do about it. Of course someone will also chime in about how they think newsletters are stupid and why don't I just put it all up on facebook, and they don't like the color blue, or my name.
Don't take this the wrong way, I love feedback and I truly love you guys and gals.... but........experience has told me where this is going

Can he be like Eddie Eagle and go to kid's schools? But be grumpy and cantankerous? Oh the possibilities!
Do we have to spell Peter like a commie? That probably won't go over well. And I would pay to see goose in a porcupine costume teaching school kids about gun safety. LOLErikO wrote:

Yep, Pietr Porcupine would be a great mascot. Give him a MN for demonstration perposes.
He can make appearances with his buddy Teabag R Sockpuppet!mark wrote:Xela wrote:I'm down with that.mark wrote:ha. I think G&G had it right. Something along the lines of "The LGC Newsletter" may be best.
