The Obama Administration today launched their #NowIsTheTime social media campaign. The idea is for supporters to ‘carpet bomb’ Twitter and Facebook with posts pushing for gun control.
Well, it seems to have backfired. Not too long after going live, the #NowIsTheTime hashtag on Twitter started showing more pro second-amendment tweets than those calling for gun control. Interestingly enough, the Twitter Top search, which tend to show Tweets from famous names and celebrities, are mostly in support of the Obama Administration. Obviously there is a disparity in views between the common person and the elite. It is a telling parallel with real life, where those who are more privileged tend to also support gun control.
Let’s help out our pro-firearms colleagues in America. They are in the front line and whatever passes in the US will eventually affect us in the Philippines. It you have Twitter, post the hashtag #NowIsTheTime along with a pro gun message.
Our American brothers-in-arms are now facing the fight of their life against the anti-gun politicians and pressure groups that are pushing hard on all fronts to disregard their 2nd Amendment rights. We support all American gun owners in this struggle.
