TODAY, Monday, April 19<\/strong> is the big day millions of us will send a much needed, clear and concise message to Washington DC by participating in the very simple, yet extremely effective “Don’t Tread on Me” mail campaign I created below. <\/p>\n

Tuesday April 20 <\/strong>is the day I unveil the BIG REWARD for everyone who participates. Believe me, if you miss this opportunity to participate on the 19th, you are going to kick yourself hard–especially when you see the reward you could have had for your extremely easy, yet significantly important involvement. <\/p>\n

If you have not already done so, print your 8 1\/2″ x 11″ Don’t Tread on Me flags <\/a> now so you can drop your four flags in the mail today and save the fifth flag for the Big Reward I have for you tomorrow! <\/strong><\/p>\n

Get your flags printed because once I turn off the web page that has the flags on it, if you do not have your fifth flag, you will not qualify for the Big Reward I have for your tomorrow.<\/strong><\/p>\n

And if you do not have a color printer, no worries. Print the flags in black and white.<\/strong> It is the message of the Don’t Tread on Me flag that is important, not the color.<\/p>\n

As you are well aware the, The Second Amendment March on Washington, DC is happening on April 19. This is great event that will attract a significant amount of people attending, but there is no way that the “Silent Majority” (100 million or more gun owners) will be properly represented because we cannot ALL attend.<\/p>\n

But WE THE PEOPLE, the Silent Majority who are armed, understand our rights, and recognize that the current batch of elected servants in Washington, DC just don’t “get it” can send a clear and concise warning to the government that will make our Founding Fathers smile from above and send a cold chill down the spines of those failing to “…preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States.”<\/p>\n

Here is how easy you can make history and influence a much needed and proper “change” in the direction of our country!<\/p>\n

Step 1.<\/strong> Print out FIVE COPIES<\/strong> of the most descriptive flag in American history, the symbol Benjamin Franklin felt was the most appropriate for the revolution when he wrote, “She never begins an attack, nor, when once engaged, ever surrenders: She is therefore an emblem of magnanimity and true courage. … she never wounds ’till she has generously given notice, even to her enemy, and cautioned him against the danger of treading on her.”<\/p>\n

\"Don't<\/a><\/p>\n

Again, it does not matter whether you print color or black and white copies. The message, not the color is what is important!<\/p>\n

Step 2. <\/strong>Fold one of the 8 1\/2 x 11 inch flags and insert it into an envelope addressed the President of the United States. The President’s address is:<\/p>\n

President Barack Obama
\nThe White House
\n1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW
\nWashington, DC 20500<\/p>\n

Fold another and insert it into an envelope addressed to your Federal Representative. Fold another two flags and address them to each of your Senators in Washington, DC.<\/p>\n

Click here to find the addresses of your Senators and Representative.<\/a><\/p>\n

Place all four envelopes in the mail so they are postmarked MONDAY, APRIL 19th. Why April 19th? Because April 19th is the anniversary of the “Shot Heard Round the World.” On that day in 1775, our forefathers stood their ground against British tyranny in the Battle of Old North Bridge at Concord, Massachusetts.<\/p>\n

Save the FIFTH FLAG for the BIG REWARD I will give you after April 19th.<\/strong> That fifth flag will be worth thousands of dollars to you to show my thanks for your participation in sending a clear message to our government that the Silent Majority in this country will not tolerate the direction America is heading.<\/p>\n

Step 3.<\/strong> Forward this email to your family and friends, everyone on your e-mail lists, and place it on all the chat rooms you frequent. Make this April 19th postmark “Don’t Tread on Me” mail campaign go viral throughout the Internet and OVERWHELM our elected officials in Washington, DC so they know, without a doubt, that the Silent Majority, who understand the Constitution — whether Democrat, Republican, Libertarian, or undeclared are NOT TO BE TREAD UPON!<\/p>\n

IMPORTANT:<\/strong> As one of the 281,000 subscribers to my blog, collectively, with the power of the Internet, you can make history and in doing so influence a much needed and proper “change” in the direction of our country! I said I would prove it to you!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Here is How… <\/strong><\/p>\n

If you and my other subscribers follow all three steps and just ONE of the people you send this email to does the same, and just ONE of the people they send this email to does the same, and just ONE of the people they send this email to does the same, and so on… by April 19th, TENS OF MILLIONS of “Don’t Tread on Me” letters will flood Washington, DC throughout the week of April 19th creating a thunderous “shot heard round the world” that the media and every elected official cannot ignore!<\/p>\n

Believe me, this is working already as your fellow Front Sight Students and Subscribers are forwarding it not to just one other person, but HUNDREDS of people! Do the same and be part of a history in the making!<\/p>\n

Here are just a few of the hundreds of examples I received the last few days:<\/p>\n

Dr Piazza,
\nJust to let you know that I have forwarded your email about Don’t Tread on Me to over 50 on my email list. Yesterday I also dropped off a copy at the local Outdoor Store and told them to pass them out to their customers. Be assured that my flags will be going out promptly on 4\/19. I am also putting a decal of the flag in my car and I have a 3′ X 5′ flag on my shed in the yard. Hopefully this will ignite a fire storm that even those in Washington cannot ignore. Thanks Joe N.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Wow Dr. Piazza!
\nThanks. I am really impressed. I have been trying to catch up on emails all day between my work and I just forwarded the “Don’t Tread On Me” email to about 50 people and I haven’t even started on my work contact list yet! AWESOME idea! I will be participating. Tim M.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ignatius,
\nI got the “Don’t Tread on Me blog” posted on about 9 websites including Facebook and emailed it to about 150 people. So, I think it will take off! Holly W.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dr. Piazza,
\nI just printed out 30 copies that I will be giving away to people to send out and emailed 50 people I know to do the same. THANKS FOR YOUR GREAT WORK. Larry O.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dr. Piazza,
\nWe at The Upper Perkiomen Concerned Citizens group have 120 Gadsden Flags already addressed, stuffed into postage-applied envelopes, marked with 30 different return addresses, ready to go! We are hoping to have about 250 prepared by the time April 19 gets here! Great idea! Thanks for your support of We The People! Michal H.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
