Front Sight $912 Lifetime Membership
Thanks Those Who Marched on 9/12

Dear xxxx,

I owe a debt of gratitude to millions of my fellow
Americans and I intend to pay that debt in a manner that
has never been done in the history of our country.

As the Founder and Director of Front Sight Firearms
Training Institute, an organization that has doubled every
year for 12 straight years and is on track to double again
this year, my duties often prevent me from physically being
where I would like to be.

September 12, 2009 was one of those days.

While Front Sight was training upwards of 500 students on
our 550 acre facility near Las Vegas, Nevada that weekend,
millions of our fellow Americans descended on Washington DC
and throughout towns and cities to send a peaceful, yet
strong message to our current government.

You may have missed it because the mainstream news media
barely mentioned this historic, record-breaking
demonstration of the silent majority. If they did mention
it all, they referred to "thousands" of demonstrators
instead of the millions who sacrificed their time and money
to travel to Washington DC and rally in towns and cities
across the US so our politicos could witness a gathering of
discontent that dwarfed the Million Man March and President
Obama's Inauguration.

I wish I could have been there.

Since I could not personally make the trip, I am going to
reward those who participated in 9/12 demonstrations, in
an unprecedented manner.

You can also show your thanks to the millions of patriots
who represented us in such an admirable way by simply
spreading this message far and wide.

Please forward this email to all the conservative talk show
hosts in America and ask them to spread the word that I
have a $17,000 Front Sight Firearms Training Institute,
Lifetime Membership for every man and woman who
participated in 9/12 demonstrations or the 9/12 March on
Washington, DC.

Please forward this email to everyone you know and ask them
to forward it to everyone they know so we can get the word
out to those who marched and give them the opportunity to
take advantage of my way of saying, "Thanks for standing up
for us in such an exemplary manner!"

Here is how I want to reward ANYONE and EVERYONE who
participated in the September 12, 2009 Tea Party
demonstrations or the March on Washington, DC:

I have created a special Front Sight Firearms Training
Lifetime Membership that I am calling the FRONT SIGHT 9/12
LIFETIME MEMBERSHIP in honor of those who participated in
the 9/12 Tea Party demonstrations or marched on Washington
DC, September 12, 2009.

I have hand selected our most popular firearms training
courses. These are the courses that Front Sight students
cherish most and attend repeatedly throughout their lives.

The FRONT SIGHT 9/12 LIFETIME MEMBERSHIP provides the
following benefits:

- Attend the following courses Free of Charge and As Many
Times As You Wish FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE:
- Two Day Defensive Handgun
- Two Day Tactical Shotgun
- Two Day Practical Rifle
- Four Day Defensive Handgun
- Four Day Tactical Shotgun
- Four Day Practical Rifle
- Two Day Handgun Skill Builder
- Two Day Advanced Tactical Handgun
- Four Day Handgun Combat Master Prep

With a Front Sight 9/12 Lifetime Membership you have the
opportunity to achieve a level of self defense, Skill at
Arms that most people could spend and entire career in
the military or law enforcement and still not receive.

This is not marketing hype. There is a good reason why
Marine Corps officers, and law enforcement firearms
instructors become members at Front Sight... It's because
we can provide them with more consistent and expert
firearms training than they get from their own agencies.

And when you become a Front Sight 9/12 Lifetime Member
you will get to train right along side our nation's
finest peacekeepers and warriors helping build a lifelong
bond between the law-abiding armed citizens who are the
backbone of our country's defense and the brave men and
women who place themselves in harm's way on a daily basis
to protect and serve our nation.

- You will also receive 2 Front Sight Course
Certificates that you can sell, transfer or donate to
anyone who has not yet attended a course at Front Sight.
Certificates good for one person to attend a Four Day
Defensive Handgun, Tactical Shotgun, or Practical Rifle
Course. Two people may use the same certificate to attend
a Two Day Defensive Handgun, Tactical Shotgun, or
Practical Rifle Course. Certificates have NO EXPIRATION.

This benefit is a GREAT way to start your entire family
on the road to safe and responsible firearms expertise or
introduce your friends to the fabulous experience that
awaits them at Front Sight. Either way, you will be a
hero in their eyes for taking it upon yourself to get
them Front Sight trained!

- Guaranteed Placement in Your Courses with Two Weeks
Advance Enrollment... No worries about whether you can
"get into a course." As a member your spot is guaranteed.
Just fax or e-mail your Application for Training within
two weeks of the course date and you are in! Like
everything else we offer, no other school can offer you
such flexibility with your scheduling!

- Invitation to Annual July 4th Lifetime Members' Reunion
Celebration... So you and your family can celebrate July
4th each year in a manner that makes our Founding Fathers
proud!

- Name etched in the Front Sight Lifetime Members'
Monument... So generations from now, your grand kids will
know you were part of the patriotic group who built Front
Sight!

- Password to access exclusive and restricted Lifetime
Members area of web site and e-mail forum... Now you can
positively converse with all of our like minded First
Family members!

- Front Sight Lifetime Member Card and Hat... Identifying
you to all students and staff as a loyal and supportive
patriot assisting us in positively changing the image of
gun ownership in our lifetime!

What is the Value of this Front Sight 9/12 Lifetime
Membership?

As you know, the cost of a Four Day Course alone at Front
Sight is $2,000 and a Two Day Course is $1,000.

If you were to simply attend each course in your 9/12
Lifetime Membership just ONCE, the value is $13,000! Plus
the two, Front Sight Course Certificate you receive
provides another $4,000 in value for a total value of
$17,000!

We know you won't attend each course JUST ONCE! We know you
will attend them all multiple times! Especially the Handgun
Skill Builder, Advanced Tactical Handgun and Handgun Combat
Master Prep Courses. After attending all the courses, the
Skill Builder, Advanced Tactical Handgun, and Combat Master
Prep course will quickly become your favorites! We know
this after watching thousands of students attend our
courses...

We also know what you will be saying to yourself and
everyone who will listen back home...

The most common words we hear students say after the FIRST
DAY of their FIRST COURSE is "I cannot believe how much I
did not know!"

The most common words we hear from students after the
SECOND DAY of their FIRST COURSE is, "I cannot believe how
much I am learning!"

The most common words we hear from students after the THIRD
DAY of their FIRST COURSE is "I can't wait to bring my
family and friends back with me!"

And the most common words we hear from students after the
FOURTH DAY of their FIRST COURSE is "I can't believe there
is so much more to learn! I'm coming back for every course
on my membership and bringing a different gun each time!"

So if you attend each course JUST ONCE (which we know you
won't) you get $17,000 in value... If you attend each
course multiple times with different weapons (which we know
you will do as much as possible) the value of your 9/12
Lifetime Memberships exceeds $40,000!

Why am I doing this?

Because I want to thank the millions of people who
participated in the 9/12 Rallies by training them to a
LEVEL OF SKILL AT ARMS THAT FAR EXCEEDS LAW ENFORCEMENT AND
MILITARY STANDARDS- and I can do it -
in a caring and
compassionate manner, without any boot camp mentality or
drill instructor attitudes.

Note: Emphasis mine

How does this work for Front Sight?

Because each time you return home you will tell everyone
you know about what a great time you had at Front Sight and
each time you return to Front Sight you will bring another
family member or friend with you and help us grow our
organization and strengthen the backbone of America!

So if you were one of the millions of patriots who marched
on Washington, DC or participated in a Tea Party Rally on
September 12, 2009 you are going to get $17,000 to over
$40,000 of value out of your Front Sight 9/12 Lifetime
Membership and we are going to get a lifetime of your good
will, good words and great referrals- and the satisfaction
of knowing we put real teeth into the Second Amendment by
training you to levels that exceed law enforcement and
military standards.

So What's the Catch?

There is no catch.

None whatsoever.

My hundreds of thousands of students call me the
Millionaire Patriot because over the last 13 years I have
literally given away millions of dollars in free and
discounted training to assist responsible and law abiding
Americans in securing the level of skill at arms that our
Founding Fathers envisioned for Americans- skill at arms
equal to or superior to any standing army.

Because I was so impressed with the way millions of my
fellow patriots conducted themselves across America, I want
to reward them in a way that only I can.

So instead of the Front Sight 9/12 Lifetime Membership
having a cost of $17,000 or $12,000, or $5,000 or $2,500 or
even $1,000... I am effectively giving this 9/12 LIFETIME
MEMBERSHIP away at THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS BELOW MY COST!

I'm doing this so each and ever one of the millions of
patriots who sacrificed their time and money to represent
me and the rest of America's like minded gun owners in the
historic 9/12 Tea Party Rallies and March on Washington DC
can have the opportunity to become Front Sight trained for
life and liberty!

Here is what I mean:

Front Sight 9/12 Lifetime Membership

Total cost: a single payment $912.00

That's right! Only $912 for a lifetime of training in our 9
most popular two day and four day courses!

All you have to do is complete the Secure On-Line
Enrollment Form:
https://www.frontsight.com/membership/912-membership.asp
and your 9/12 Lifetime Membership will be priority mailed
to you within a week and you can begin taking courses
immediately. I even pay the shipping!

Or

You can print the Rapid Enrollment Form:
https://www.frontsight.com/membership/print/912-membership.html
and mail it to us at PO Box 2619, Aptos, CA 95001

Or

You can call my office assistants Kendra, Ian or Jon at
1.800.987.7719 to enroll over the phone.

If you were one of the millions of patriots who
participated in the 9/12 demonstrations across America then
PLEASE allow me to show my thanks and provide you with a
lifetime of training in handgun, shotgun and rifle--
training that will leave you with a skill at arms that
exceeds our own military and law enforcement community.

I look forward to seeing you at Front Sight as a 9/12
Lifetime Member and look forward to seeing those you refer
to us as well.

And if you were like me, and were not able to participate
in the Tea Party Rallies then PLEASE forward this email to
all the Tea Party Organizers, every conservative talk show
host in America, and everyone you know and ask them all to
spread this message far and wide so we can honor and thank
those who did march on our behalf.

Thank you for your efforts to assist me in spreading the
word.

I will keep this offer open until midnight, Friday, October
16 so everyone who participated in the 9/12 Tea Party
demonstrations or march on Washington, DC have the
opportunity to take advantage of it.

If you did not participate in any of the 9/12 rallies but
want to take advantage of the Greatest Course, Gun, and CCW
Permit Offer in the firearms training industry see this

1. And some people think I'm just paranoid when I say they are out to get us
It's like when people thought Hitler was bluffing in Mein Kampf (No Godwining here - its a pefectly reasonable example) when he said "Kill all the Jews, Communists, Gays, Gypsies and anyone not blonde and blue eyed.

The RWers are killing us now (Dr. Tiller, Census taker, etc), and they have been threatening to kill us for a while.



This came out around 2002.


We are their targets. Take care of yourselves. Take care of your families. Don't be a statistic.

3. What a dope
Practically all of his knuckle-dragging followers do so because they don't have a pot to piss in or a window to throw it out of. Where in hell are they going to scrape together $912? But I'm sure that "Dr." Piazza is an earnest devotee of P.T. Barnum, so he'll never have to wonder where his next meal is coming from.

9. The marketing approach in this letter went out of date a long time ago, but it probably
Edited on Thu Sep-24-09 03:11 PM by peacetalksforall
works for his audience.

I think I saw him presenting a salad chopping machine on cable. Just kidding. It was for a set of knives.

Makes you think that he would be on cable selling his guns in the dialouge style - if permitted.

We take people in from every country, but we can't get in to any other country unless we have money like he seems to have. Reading this, makes me feel like leaving. But, then he/they would win.

I am going to keep reminding myself that this is my country just as much as it is his. I assume he is a citizen.

Former CIA, anyone?

Talk about having a passion for your profession.

Or having a profession because of your passion .... and fears.

10. If they don't have a pot to piss in, why do they drive or fly to Vegas to piss on a pistol range?

11. We should just start coupling his name with Erik Prince since they have
terror and training in common.

Who was the person who went to an Obama presentation with the gun strapped on? A graduate?

12. The Front Sight guys have ties to scientology as well.
They were discussing it on Why We Protest at one point a few months ago.

There's something really fishy about them.
