Who
We Are
We are a
collective of volunteer activists who devote a few
minutes of time each day to search a small number
of personally chosen news websites in order to
find true accounts of armed self-defense in the
news.
Mission
Statement
Our Mission is...
to blanket the entire U.S. online news
system, both online and offline, and capture
every armed self-defense story covered;
to establish a single, centralized location
in which to archive the many accounts of armed
self-defense that are reported each day in
America;
to provide a comprehensive, searchable
resource of armed self-defense information for
researchers, writers, reporters, editors,
politicians, gun rights organizations, gun
rights activists and others;
to expose the lies and misinformation put
forth by anti-rights activists who claim that
armed self-defense stories are rare and all but
non-existent;
to insure that Americans know how many of
their neighbors, co-workers and fellow citizens
are using and relying on guns to exercise a
basic human right - the right of self-defense;
and
to provide a
cohesive and efficient system where a large number
of gun rights activists can invest a small amount
of time, in a teamwork environment, to help
achieve all of the above.
What
We Do
We seek and find
current news stories recounting true events of
lawful, decent citizens using firearms to defend
themselves, their loved ones, others and property
-- and channel it back to this central location to
assure maximum exposure of these events in a
timely and efficient manner.
How
We Do It
We each commit to
monitoring pre-selected online news
resources, every day, and we keep our commitments
to assure that our strands in the Net Detective
web are strong.
When we find a story where a
citizen successfully thwarted a crime, we simply
(quickly) forward the link to the person who acts as the
OpSD funnel -- and celebrate the fact that we made
sure that that fish didn't get away.
Why
We Do It
Crimes are
thwarted every single day, all across America, by
lawful, decent gun owners who simply choose to be
un-victimizable.
Unfortunately, the mainstream
media isn't very helpful in getting these stories
widely reported, and there is no online
organization getting "all" of these
stories.
Working as a team, as we blanket the
entire nation's online news
resources, we make a
difference by assuring that there is a place where
people can find out about these effective,
successful uses of firearms to save life, liberty
and property.
We are OpSD -- to help
spread the word that Guns
Save Lives.
