Do you want to put the gun prohibitionists on the defensive?
Do you want to make the media froth at the mouth?
Do you want the public to reject victim disarmament?
Do you want to do these three things, and have the government
to actually help "pay" for them?
You can do it in YOUR CITY with our new matching funds program.
A highly patriotic JPFO member has made money available to help
pay for billboards featuring eye-catching JPFO artwork. You or
your local group can really make a difference ... at half the
cost!
Why Billboards?
Billboards can be the most cost-effective way to win hearts and
minds. Why? Because one picture can say a thousand words in just
a few seconds -- and the image goes directly into the brain --
hundreds and thousands of times per day. Pictures generate
emotional understanding like no other communication tool. He
who wins hearts and minds, wins the battle of ideas!
If the public develops a negative reaction to "gun control"
schemes, then the politicians will notice. Billboards can
quickly and effectively cause people to distrust and eventually
ridicule "gun control" rhetoric -- and that is exactly what we
need.
How Matching Funds Double Your Money
Here is the deal:
Committed supporters of freedom raise 50% of the cost of a
billboard, and send that to the JPFO matching funds program.
That money counts as a donation to JPFO, and is tax-deductible
for the donors. (JPFO is a 501c(3) tax-exempt educational
organization.)
JPFO will add in the other 50% of the cost, and then commission
the billboard.
Typical billboards are "30-sheet" style about 11 feet by 22 feet.
Depending upon location, they usually cost between $1,100 and
$1,500 for one month display rental. Compare that cost with a
full-page advertisement in a newspaper that can cost thousands
of dollars for just one day ... and forgotten the next day.
Have JPFO Billboards Succeeded Before?
Billboards really work. JPFO has successfully used billboards
before to raise public awareness of the issues. For example,
JPFO ran the blockbusting billboard that shows the monster
Adolf Hitler giving the Nazi salute and saying "All in favor
of 'gun control' raise your right hand." The billboard grabbed
attention worldwide because the Associated Press carried a story
about it. Even German and Israeli magazines noticed it.
The "Gun Control is Racist" billboards posted in Milwaukee's
inner city drew a strong media and public reaction -- and might
have helped convince citizens to support a Second Amendment-type
provision to be added to the state constitution. That provision
was approved by 73% of voters statewide.
JPFO urged pro-freedom activists in Missouri to use our approach
in the predominantly African-American section of St. Louis during
a referendum on concealed carry. Unfortunately, those activists
rejected our suggestion, and then spent hundreds of thousands
of dollars ... and lost.
By-pass the Media and Save Our Rights
We face the most serious national challenge to the right to keep
and bear arms that has ever appeared. The anti-self defense and
victim disarmament lobby is doing everything possible to destroy
our rights, and they have powerful mainstream media support.
You can make a huge impact to fight their effort if you take
advantage of this marvelous opportunity to DOUBLE the effect of
your pro-gun dollars.
The billboard matching fund program is easy, and it's the most
powerful way for you to fight back. Billboards by-pass the
mainstream media. Billboards speak the message all day long,
without being interrupted or cut off or censored by news
manipulators. You just can't get a better deal to influence
public opinion.
Matching Fund Program: It's Easy!
Here's all you do. By e-mail or fax, provide JPFO with:
Your name and telephone number.
The name and size of the city where you want to post the billboard.
The location where you want to the billboard to appear.
Please provide either a street address or cross-streets so we can find
it on a map.
The company name and phone number for the billboard you
want to use. Usually the company name is featured at the
bottom of the billboard; the phone number will probably be
listed locally or as an 800 number.
How much money you think you can raise -- must be at least
50% of the billboard rental cost.
The name of a local group who might assist in fund raising.
The name of a local group or person who can be the contact
for local media.
JPFO will help you choose the best billboard graphic, and then
make it happen!
Limited Time Opportunity -- Call Now!
Please contact me at JPFO today. Even if you have only some of
the needed information, but want to pursue the program, call me
with what you have.
The matching funds won't last forever, so it is first come,
first served. To maximize the effect of the billboard campaign
and to get the best advertising value, JPFO reserves the right
to make the final decision about whether to provide the matching
funds in any given situation. JPFO will let you know its
decision before you send in the money, of course!
This matching funds opportunity may be here but a short time.
Let me hear from you as soon as possible. There is too much at
stake to delay even a day.
Yours in liberty,
Phone: 262-673-9745
P.S.: If you're excited about the program but cannot get all
the resources and information together, you can still help.
You can send your private contribution to the matching funds
program -- just note "matching funds" on the check or when you
call with a credit card -- and JPFO will use that money to post
billboards in key cities. You still get the tax deduction --
and the money is DOUBLED! Now is the time to act, and your help
will really make a difference ... guaranteed!
