Well, gather round boys and girls.....It's time for a story (see what I did there?)
Anyways, all joking aside, I've heard "where has It's Time been??" "what are they doing??" Well here's a little bit of an update and some information that many of you might find useful.
When we started It's Time, it seemed the world was about to end, and we had these great ideas. HUGE ideas, we were going to conquer the world, then reality hit. Life caught up with us, and as this was a passion and not a job, it became a lot for a small group. Families and careers took a front seat again, and things got seemingly quiet on the prospect of legislation both nationally and locally. Fact of the matter, its time to get active again so, enough of the excuses, we need to get back at it, and we need your help.
We had a bunch of material printed, and created some downloadable content as well for you to print at home. Here are two very helpful and quick reference materials you can use to spread the word to gun owners and non gun owners alike:
It's Time 2A
Also fellow member PaulD put together a nice quick reference of whats on the table as far as legislation is concerned here in ma:

So onto the fancy materials we printed up. Here they are:
Nice right? We had thousands of nice business cards, posters, and some stickers made. Problem? cost of printing, which was really good, but still pricey and distributing them. It's made getting tons of this stuff out to the masses difficult. So we met with a lawyer, with our main intent to discuss how we could solicit donations to keep the printing going, and point blank we're not officially set up to accept wide spread donations, yet. What we can do is this. If you would like us to send you some posters and business cards and such to put up in your favorite gun shop, your range, or somewhere in your town (where legally acceptable ), we will accept small donations, at the very least, a couple bucks for us to mail this stuff off to you, a passing of the hat if you will. Just know this, ANY DONATION YOU CHOOSE TO MAKE, AT THIS CURRENT TIME, IS NOT TAX DEDUCTIBLE. Until we hash out what type of legal organization we are and legally what the IRS recognizes whether or not we are tax exempt. HOWEVER, according to our attorney, if we become tax exempt, donations will be retro actively deductible, and you will be notified as such.
What can you do? At the VERY LEAST, download and print the two files I've listed here, and go forth and promote. You are the activist, this is your liberty and in a time of tyranny afoot, you can no longer be passive. You can no longer sit back and wait for GOAL, or COMM2A, the NRA and others to do the fighting for you. You need to get loud and turn on the pressure. We saw how well this worked in Westford, and when the townspeople needed it the most, pro 2a supporters overwhelmed the gun grabbers, and got it removed. We need to continue this. One of the things we will work on this week is adding a submission page to our site so that those who catch wind of a discussion panel, sneaky town ordinances, meetings, hearings, anything, can notify us so we can email the folks on our list so as to show up in force and make our side heard. We need people to be the eyes and ears on the lowest levels of town government, and be the watchdogs, and let us know to rally the troops.
An important note that bears some heavy emphasis:
APRIL 3RD THE GOAL RALLY
We need to be there in the numbers, if not better, than we saw back in January. This is utterly important as it's a day the legislatures will be in session, its a mid week day, and it will show how serious we are. Save the excuses. Freedom has no excuses. If this is that important to you, and you truly want to keep the liberties you have, and perhaps win back some you've lost, than you need to start making the sacrifices needed to do so. I cannot emphasis enough how important it is for each and every one of us to start being involved in this. So go to the links below and let it be known that you will be there and your voice will be heard.
