[edit] Cleanup needed

Ok this article needs some MAJOR work! This reads like an advertisement now. I would be very highly surprised if this wasn't written by members of this group. It sounds to me like a copy/paste off their website but since I cannot find the original source, if there is one, I'll just put a totallydisputed there for now.

Tried to do a MAJOR NPOV edit on this, and removed the totally disputed tag for now. Added considerably more background details on the figurehead of the organization. There are probably still issues, but it at least no longer reads like an ad for the organization now. Yaf 05:22, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

The article is now only the propaganda of the NRA. I was there. The article is wrong. Where's the truth? When you start something with "according to the website" it gives it a negative tone. Then, to imply that because Donna Dees-Thomases was a publicist, that makes the whole thing a sham is ridiculous. You guys usually do a pretty good job. this time you totally missed it.148.85.1.102 19:14, 2 March 2006

Addressed the NPOV concerns with a re-write/edit. Articles are to be written with a balance called neutral point of view. Hopefully, this article now addresses these issues better. Of course, you can always edit the article yourself to address your concerns if you still have concerns regarding the article. Yaf 02:21, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

Hey Yaf, What's with all the Donna Dees triva? Is all that name dropping there to make her sound important? Also, I'm not sure that citing the "official paper of the vast Right Wing Conspiracy."[1] is what we mean by editing with a neutral point of view. -MrFizyx 14:33, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Liquidation of the Million Mom March

The original Million Mom March liquidated in 2001. This can be verified from the organization's 2001 Form 990 tax return, which is a public record (because the MMM was 501(c)(3) tax exempt) and can probably be downloaded from Guidestar.org. I can in fact provide a screenshot. What is now called the Million Mom March is not the same corporate entity that Donna Dees-Thomases put together.
