Title: Gun control...
Post by: sixbird on June 16, 2016, 08:09:55 AM
Anti firearms people are flooding congress with a plea to limit your 2nd amendment rights. Please go to NRA/ILA and let your voice be heard. It's easy, only takes a minute or so...It's a pre-written letter to your Rep.
I'm not sure if this link is functional via this notification but it's the one you'll use on the site...

Please, please, take the minute or so...This could be a turning point!

Thank you for the links...  I am quite certain I am already on some sort of FBI watch list as to the emails and letters I have sent...

I believe it is our duty as free citizens, and especially outdoorsmen to take the time to communicate with our representatives and voice our opinions on such matters...  Every single person on this forum should have some sort of form letter to send out as far as gun control to multiple representatives and organizations...

Thank you for posting!!!

I sent e-mails to my 2 Senators pointing out the due process issue should one be wrongfully placed on a list.  No one knows how you get on the list or how to get off should you be denied a plane seat or a gun.  Fix that and I will have no problem banning those on a list, but the Dems just don't get it.

Due process AND the right to face your accuser...If you do somehow get on the list rightfully or wrongfully, you don't have the right, according to this law, to know what you are accused of...

Thank you all...It's heartening to see people take action on such an important issue.
I'm of the understanding that representatives count each contact as multiple contacts since they assume that only a small proportion of constituents that feel the same will contact them...
Keep it going ladies and gents! Share the hell out of it! Facebook the link. Mail it to your friends. Any organizations you belong to, share it!
It's important!

Done.  Even though it will probably double the e-mails and letters I receive from the NRA.  I sure wish they would tone that done about 99%.

Just contribute a little and when they call, tell them you already donated. They'll back off...OR, just contribute again. I think it's important enough that when they call, I always give them something. I do get tired of listening to the spiel so I cut in and say, "You're looking for a donation, right?" They seem a little taken back but I explain that I'm already aware and am on the same page. It makes things quick and painless. I'd rather spend my money in defense of my constitutional rights than in a bar somewhere...

I wouldn't worry about it...If they become too much, just tell them to put you on do not call list and any emails that come, unsubscribe...I put up with the minor inconvenience because they best represent me on a crucial issue...

Email, just hit delete.
Letters, toss in the trash.
Simple as that.
Done.

They want them all...Couldn't be a more accurate statement. U.K. wanted them all and pretty much got them. Now they want the knives...
Like I say, share the hell out of it! Post it... Email it...Whatever way you can think of to get this message out, do it! Some people are aware and just don't know a venue to express to their reps...
