[Interesting idea… further thoughts anyone? Maybe something to be compiled by our volunteers? Jan]

Re: The mail sent from a Kenyan on 28/8/06

Hello,This mail clearly shows the need for our people to have (152)˜on tap™ disarming answers ready to instantly counter the arguments of the outsiders: the ignorant, the ever saintly-smiling liberal and the malicious ones. Most of our adversaries™ arguments have been around for a long time and are just repeated over and over and presented in variations “ yet one often observes that many of our friends fall into the trap that they cannot, convincingly, stand up against the arguments they are faced with. Accordingly, there is a real need for some sort of a Catechism, the type the Catholic Church has, to spell out in bullet form, short and to the point, the basic truth as it relates to the arguments with which we are confronted with. If it isn™t a TM yet, it could be called œThe Politically Incorrect Guide to (South) Africa. I am sure; such book would have mega potential, world-wide.

It goes without saying that Jan and Anthony™s answers to the letter under reference are, as always, (152)˜just what the Dr. ordered™!Best,Karl

Replied: Dear Sir,Here I am again, a poor replacement for those you would rather chat with, BUT I assure you that I am sending this message to Jan along with my reply, just as I sent one you posted on 9-2. I am cheating a bit and scanning through the e-mails to find the names I recognize and the subjects I feel need to be addressed first. I HOPE we can soon reach everyone.

I think that is a WONDERFUL idea you proposed. I will speak to Jan more about that. We have already hit on the idea of a FACT page for those who respond to mail. Since I am from the States, I have also suggested that we have a list of organizations we can and should support,as well as list of the alphabet agencies as we have ours too and there are simply to many to keep straight. If you have any further ideas along these lines, let us know and we will explore them as soon as possible. The new activity around the AC site is invigorating and we are catching fire here and hopefully we will produce some good work. We already KNOW for SURE that Jan can and does produce. We have a great role model to follow. His countrymen owe him a huge debt and we aim to make more people aware of his work.

I have worked for some time with two or three of the pro gun groups in SA and here as well. I KNOW we have some very good people in those groups who are used to debate. They are some of the best informed in my opinion. I’m in hopes we can find a way to help support their effort and that in turn, we can have access to some of their good information. With crime being such an issue, we can make good use of their statistics which are always up to date. I would like to see a page for them on the website and let one or two of the fellows keep their current issues posted. They are wonderful to post news stories of crime and general mayhem on their forums. These men, for the most part, but there are women as well, write some of the VERY BEST letters to the Editor that you can imagine. It is their strong point. I think connecting with them could be a win/win situation and they are tireless workers as Jan is. Standing the test of time. They know it is a do or die situation they face. Strong men will answer the call!

Thank you again, God bless you,JoAn
