Real Events in the Beverly Hills Community

Our vision is that this club will eventually have worldwide appeal with a global membership, or at least global consumers. ;-) But let's not lose sight of the foundation --- the local chapter of the Beverly Hills Gun Club, located in (TA DA!) Beverly Hills!

We really need to have events with Beverly Hills people. People who can support the Second Amendment rights, to be sure. But --- I don't know --- maybe we shouldn't press that aspect too much. That subject becomes overly political and people view the subject in much the same way as Democrats versus Republicans, sex, religion and other taboo or controversial subjects. We want to focus on the social aspect --- party time, social gatherings and the like --- an excuse to party. Based on the common interest of firearms. Even if it's a casual or passing interest on the part of some people.

Maybe we can make gun ownership cool and chick --- as in Beverly Hills chic!

I realize, too, that there's a liberal mentality in the area that is anti-gun. But I believe there are enough people who are interested in guns in Beverly Hills. I know, I've met some of them.

And also, as a Second Amendment proponent myself, there's the desire to spread the word and convert people. And the way to do that is not to pressure people but to take the lighter, more friendly approach. What better way than to have a fun-filled social gathering, all the while demonstrating the benefits --- and fun! --- of guns.

OK, before you think that this approach is too sly, conniving and underhanded, I will say that my first interest is to make this whole project fun and enjoyable for everybody --- and to create demand.

I alluded to some events in an earlier post. Wine and cheese get-togethers, luncheons, gun collection shows, barbecues and other social mixers. The common theme in all these, of course, is guns. We can mix bullseye competitions (nothing serious, mind you, but fun events) or watermelon/tin can shootouts. We are gun enthusiasts so we can come up with a lot of fun shooting events to tie in the social gatherings.

And we keep everything Beverly Hills light. No hardcore military commando stuff, okay?
