Is there anyone out there?

I am looking at the Shoot Roster this AM to see if anyone has signed up to work Clearwater and not only is Clearwater understaffed - so is the rest of the state for the entire year. I see some die-hard SBs, red hats and IITs signed up across the year, but they can only be in one place at a time and there are a lot of orphaned events - SB and all. What's going on? Are we done?

How many orange hats have been handed out in FL to date? I'll bet more than 100 and I see maybe a dozen signed up for events - maybe less. This ship is sinking and the only chance we have is to educate the masses in a hurry.

If you've given up, please let IS know so we can take you off the roster and know better where we really are as an organization. If not, and I pray not, please sign up for events well in advance so we aren't scrambling at the last minute or worse, canceling events. I see some folks working three weekends in a row. I know a couple that worked every weekend from early January well into February. Why? Because someone has to make up for thems who do not work at all. This weekend I will be pulling in a couple that aren't even hatted to help keep the line safe. Two students or two hundred - every event is important to Liberty.

Let's roll.

Hi Trey,

All I can do is to Promise that Dead Eye Red and I will try to sign up earlier than We have been.

In Liberty

Teresa and Tom
" The Constitution shall never be construed to prevent the people of the United States who are peaceable citizens from keeping their own arms. €�  - Alexander Hamilton
"The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government."    -- Thomas Jefferson

" The Beauty of The Second Amendment is that it will not be needed until they try to take it"
Thomas Jefferson

Arms discourage and keep the invader and plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property... Horrid mischief would ensue were the law-abiding deprived of the use of them.

Tom, you and Teresa are appreciated more than you can know. Now where are the rest of the Florida instructors? It is my understanding that the country has not been saved yet. Did I miss something?
The American Constitution is remarkable for its simplicity; but can only suffice a people habitually correct in their actions, and would be utterly inadequate to the wants of a different nation.  Change the domestic habits of the Americans, their religious devotion, and their high respect for morality, and it will not be necessary to change a single letter in the Constitution in order to vary the whole form of their government. - Francis Grund 1837

Tom and Teresa,
Doesn't really apply to ya'll, as you are active, but I appreciate the response. I went to look at an event I ran last weekend and had only a single IIT signed up. Then I scrolled down and saw that very few events have very few, of the same folks signed up. This creates a panic for SBs and the FL SCs. We have a lot of venues lined up, thanks to a lot of hard work and from the sign up sheet - it looks like we have very few active instructors - hence my abrasive comments.

So many have worked so hard over the years to git FL and the rest of the nation rolling - now we need to stay with it till it shines.

Many thanks sir,
PH
