Thirdpower at the Days of our Trailers blog has done all in the gun community a big favor. He has compiled a "Primer for Gun Control Groups in the US". It details the members of the gun control industry in the United States, their major money sources, and their leaders.
This is definitely an important contribution to keeping an eye on those who would deny us our civil rights.
Thirdpower also has a post up today on the most recent recipients of grants from the Joyce Foundation. One of the more interesting grants was "a total of $790K to NewVentureFund to "support the development and launch of a new online organization. "

This makes think that blogger's in each State should look to see who are the anti gun org's, and where they get their money from.
ReplyDelete@Cemetery - I agree. If they are a non-profit, they must file a Form 990. You can get an idea how they get their money from that. Also, if put out any "report" they will often thank their funding sources.
ReplyDeleteA couple days ago, I went through the current year's IRS non-profit revocations and tweeted them. Here's copies and pastes of each tweet:
ReplyDeleteLooking through the state-by-state lists of IRS-revoked non-profits this year. #1: ILLINOIS CITIZENS FOR HANDGUN CONTROL (anti-civil rights)

Alright, that's all for now. Searched CA, NY, NJ, IL, and District of Columbia. Go here for more, & doublecheck me: http://1.usa.gov/k0SnLk
@dantodd Autorevoked perhaps because of failure to file, or because they think the law doesn't apply to them any more than Art III, Sec 3.
