The Second Amendment Freedom Enterprise, Inc.  (S.A.F.E.)

The S.A.F.E. Agenda

Statement of Principle

 In 1776, the Founders of The United States of America realized their rights
and freedoms as English Citizens had been stolen by a distant and unfeeling
government.

 It did not happen overnight.  It was a process of slow erosion, not one of
cataclysmic freedom-quakes that suddenly obliterated the rights of man.  By
the time they recognized the process for what it was the damage was done.
 The Founders of The United States of America were left with only two
choices:

 Involuntary Servitude to the throne of England or Armed Rebellion.

 By The Grace of God, they chose the latter.  

 Those of us who live in the bastion of freedom that has been The United
States of America owe a debt that can not be paid to those who fought and
died to give us our freedoms.  We owe a similar debt to those who have shed
their blood during the life of The Republic to preserve those freedoms.
 While we can not repay the generations of the past we can absolve ourselves
of our obligation by securing those same freedoms for the generations of the
future.

 By remembering the lessons of history, we can, we hope, avoid the necessity
of armed conflict in a Second American Revolution, for once again, a distant
and unfeeling government is stealing the rights of citizens.

Mission Statement

 To that end, we are forming S.A.F.E., The SECOND AMENDMENT FREEDOM
ENTERPRISE for the following purposes:

1.  Actively informing the American people of the dangers at hand.  

2. Educating the American Citizen as to how they may avoid the errors of the
past.  

3.  Through information and education, inspiring American Citizens to empower
themselves by taking positive, peaceful actions designed to preserve our
freedoms.

 Through these actions, S.A.F.E members, participants and sponsors seek to
protect and preserve the freedoms that define us as Citizens of The United
States of America.

Action Program

 S.A.F.E. intends to be as activist in its efforts to defend and preserve
Second Amendment Freedoms as are those organizations and individuals who seek
to destroy them.

 We, and others like us, have long noted the efforts of the mainstream media
and liberal politicians to subvert personal freedom and individual
responsibility with the whim of an all powerful and encompassing government.

 At first, it was subtle but their days of subtlety are over.  The news
organizations of the mainstream media have ceased to bear the slightest
resemblance to objective reporters.  In fact, they have become advocates of
policy.  Liberal politicians do not hide their contempt for Second Amendment
Freedoms and those who hold them dear.

 Their actions have become so brazen and bold that recently the ABC program,
"DAY ONE", declared, "THE CONSTITUTION MAY HAVE BECOME A LUXURY WE CAN NO
LONGER AFFORD."
 
 The Cornerstone of The American Republic, the Social Contract signed by The
Founders of the Republic and notarized with the blood of Patriots, according
to an organization who's very livelihood depends on the freedoms granted by
that document, "may have become a luxury we can no longer afford."  

 It is enough to bring tears to the eyes of angels.

 Since "Day One" has fired salvos across the bow of the Ship of Freedom,
S.A.F.E. returns the favor.

 "Day One" is a commercial endeavor, made profitable by the makers of
products who purchase air time to advertise those products.  Recognizing that
simple fact, we plan to attack the one thing the liberal media loves almost
as much as the power it is attempting to grab:  it's money.  To that end,
S.A.F.E. issues the following statement.

To:   America

From:  The Second Amendment Freedom Enterprise  (S.A.F.E.)

 SEARS  is a principal sponsor of "Day One".  

 S.A.F.E. calls upon Americans to, as of this day, cease doing business at
 SEARS.  

 S.A.F.E. calls upon you to boycott  SEARS until such a time as they pull
their advertising from "Day One" and publicly announce they will cease and
desist to sponsor programs and organizations advocating the revocation of
Constitutional freedoms.

 S.A.F.E. further calls upon you to promote the boycott in your area, to
inform ten people of the boycott and ask each of them to inform another ten
people.

 We call upon you to make this boycott successful.  S.A.F.E. believes the
only peaceful way to catch the attention of the mainstream media and the
politicians who pander to them is for the common citizen to flex his economic
muscle.  

 By eliminating a single store from your shopping agenda you can tell the
media elite that you have had enough of their efforts to subvert freedom.
 You can let them know that while you may not have a network to promote your
point of view, you will not tolerate their using your airways to destroy The
Constitution.

 You can let them know you will do what is necessary to preserve Freedom.

 S.A.F.E. calls upon The National Rifle Association (the N.R.A.), The Gun
Owners of America (G.O.A.), Gunowners Using Network Services (G.U.N.S). and
all other groups actively working to insure Second Amendment Freedoms to join
us in this effort.

 Stand together and be heard.

 Boycott  SEARS.

 Keep America S.A.F.E.!

Mr. Edward Brennan
Chief Executive Officer
SEARS
SEARS TOWER
Chicago, Il. 60684

Dear Mr. Brennan:

As you undoubtedly know by now, S.A.F.E., The Second Amendment Freedom
Enterprise, has announced a nationwide boycott of SEARS.  S.A.F.E. has done
so because you sponsor the ABC network's program, "DAY ONE".  In a recent
broadcast, "DAY ONE" hypothecated that "the Constitution may have become a
luxury we can no longer afford."

This is to inform you that I, the undersigned, have joined The Second
Amendment Freedom Enterprise's boycott of SEARS.  As one who values the
freedoms of the Constitution, I refuse to spend the few dollars left me after
taxes with a company who's advertising budget makes it profitable for the
activist media to attempt to take away my Constitutional Rights.

SEARS has long been a symbol American mercantile, made profitable by exactly
the type of American who fought to keep the country free.  That SEARS would
empower others to destroy the very document that allowed it to grow and
prosper is beyond understanding.  Until such time as SEARS publicly announces
it will no longer sponsor programming advocating the destruction of my
Constitutional Rights, SEARS, it's products and affiliates are eliminated
from my shopping cycle.

Sincerely, 

Membership

their attention is to hit them in the wallet and hit them at the ballot box.
