    Default What Do You Think Of A USA Carry Myspace and/or FaceBook Account?

    I wanted to get your thoughts on these types of sites. I had created a myspace profile for USA Carry when I first started the site and some members said they would leave the site if I kept it so I deleted it. Does everyone still feel this way about these sites? The only reason I am asking as they can be another networking avenue to get USA Carry out to other people.

    I will stick with the majority of the users on the site so I wanted to see what everyone though about it.

    ************************* UPDATE *************************
    Well I decided to create a Myspace account for USA Carry and it seems that over 1,000 users on USA Carry have accounts there already. That'll be more friend's than my own personal Myspace account. I'll keep it up for now and see how things go.

    I've also created a Facebook account and there were over 600 USA Carry members on there too. If you have a facebook account you can search for luke mccoy or usa carry to find the account.

    I wouldn't say that. I bet more thank half the people on this site have their own myspace and/or facebook accounts. I'm just thinking it could be a way to get out to some of the younger concealed carriers.

    I worry that postings can be taken out of context and used against us in the court of public opinion.

    What does that have to do with myspace or facebook?

    Sorry Luke, that was a lame attempt to make a joke. It doesn't matter to me either way about those accounts. If you think it will spread the Gospel then I'm behind you.

    Np, thanks. I'd still like to get more feedback from everyone else before I do anything with it. Not that high on my priority list. I just wanted to put it out there for some member feedback.

    I'm one of them and I'm neither a kid nor a pedophile. Anyway, I think it's a good idea. I'll put you (or whoever creates the page) on my friends list.

    Thumbs up

    I have a MySpace account and find it a great networking tool. I'm in favor of setting up a site for USA Carry.

    I think it's a ok idea. Is there a age limit on the forums? Just ask because i would hate for "Kids" on my space to start joining the forum and posting dumb stuff like "killing people is so cool" Or other things like that. It could back fire if that happens you will have a flood of under age kids on here. So maybe you could make a under age child board for them. As some things on here under age people should not be seeing/talking about.

    THEY MAY TAKE OUR LIVES BUT THEY'LL NEVER TAKE OUR FREEDOM!!!!!
