The Second Amendment Foundation Radio Blitz has grown from 350 stations to 495 stations in less than a year.
This 41% growth is directly attributed to generous donations by SAF supporters around the country who wanted to
hear a pro-gun message in the media for a change.
Our radio blitz has bombarded the airwaves with over $2.1 million in airtime designed to help secure and protect
gun rights for all law-abiding Americans. The pro-gun radio announcement, "It's the Bill of Rights, Not the
Bill of Needs," has run continuously for more than a year all across America.
"Our SAF Bill of Rights message is a hot topic of discussion for the more than 6 million people who hear our
pro-gun message each and every month," said SAF Founder Alan Gottlieb, whose voice people will hear across
America. "Our target goal is to reach well over 70 million people by the end of this year!"
"Gun owners need this media blitz to counter the malicious lies spread by gun grabbers and their willing accomplices
in the mainstream media," stated Gottlieb. "Every American should be reminded that the right to keep
and bear arms is an individual freedom enumerated in our Bill of Rights. It is not a privilege nor is it based
on 'need'."
The complete text of our latest hard-hitting message reads:
"It's the Bill of Rights, not the Bill of Needs. I'm Alan Gottlieb, founder of the Second Amendment
Foundation. When someone says, 'We don't need that kind of gun,' remind them the Founding Fathers determined what
Rights our Constitution should protect. There is a world of difference between Rights and Needs.
It is not the function of Government to tell us what we need or what we don't.
Certainly no one needs an Assault Rifle or a Saturday Night Special or, for that matter, no one needs a Corvette
with a high capacity horse power engine capable of speeds to 150 miles per hour. But, in the hands of honest responsible
individuals, we have the right of choice. We have the right to read books others don't like. We have the right
to listen to any radio program we choose. We have the right to dress the way we want to. We also have the right
to own firearms of our choice.
So, the next time someone tells you, 'You don't need something,' tell them, 'It's the Bill of Rights not the Bill
of Needs.' Join the Second Amendment Foundation today, so that this message and our Bill of Rights might live.
Call (425) 454-7012. That's (425) 454-7012."
This important message is not only being carried on top individual stations across the country, but also through
several national networks including: Talk America Radio Network, People's Radio Network and the WorldWeb News Network
in conjunction with United Press International. Some of the major media markets that this pro-gun radio announcement
is airing in are: Phoenix, Sacramento, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Denver, Philadelphia, Orlando, Tampa, Miami,
Atlanta, Honolulu, St. Louis, Chicago, Indianapolis, Nashville, New Orleans, Washington D.C., Baltimore, Boston,
Detroit, Minneapolis, Memphis, Kansas City, Las Vegas, Charlotte, Cleveland, Portland, Pittsburgh, Dallas, Houston,
San Antonio, Salt Lake City, Seattle, Spokane and Milwaukee.
"SAF will continue this high profile campaign throughout the year for as long as our budget allows. Every
person in America needs to know that the Bill of Rights cannot be eliminated, compromised, or distorted into the
Bill of 'Needs'," proclaimed Gottlieb.
