You Stopped National Legislation on Carrying Concealed Weapons!
Dear Tom,

 
You did it! Thank you!

You helped stop the gun lobby's legislation that would have forced states to allow dangerous individuals to carry loaded guns in public.

This outrageous legislation would have reduced the gun laws in nearly all states to the "lowest common denominator" of the states with the weakest laws.

We could not have defeated the National Rifle Association without your calls to your Senators and your tremendous support.

With your support, we were able to act quickly to get critical information to your Senators about this harmful legislation. Your support helped us to reach dozens of newspapers across the country to get editorials opposing the Thune amendment that helped sway legislators.

We were able to coordinate quickly and effectively with our allies on the Hill, law enforcement, Mayors Against Illegal Guns, and other partners in the gun violence prevention movement.

We were able to do it all because of you and your continued commitment to keep dangerous guns out of the hands of dangerous people.

Now we look forward to working with you to move a positive agenda forward to protect you, your family and your community from gun violence.

With your help, we will be working just as hard to require Brady criminal background checks on all gun sales, starting with closing the gun show loophole. I hope you will help again by contacting your legislators to urge them to close the gun show loophole.

Thank you again from all of us!

 
Sincerely,

Paul Helmke, President
Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence





Doncha just love it that those of us who have gone through the training, background checks federal anal exams, and been certified as card-carrying good guys are described in this e-mail as "dangerous people".

I still maintain that a half-baked liberal with e-mail access is FAR more dangerous to this country and her citizens than a .45 with a full magazine!

So law abiding, responsible citizens are the "dangerous individuals" in our country. This really shows how the antis view us. Thanks for the insight Tom. It is a really good idea to keep your enemies closer. Glad that you do.

I guess this illustrates that you should never let the truth get in the way of a lie...

Tom,

I agree with your idea to keep your enimies closer.  However, rather than a bunch of us signing up and boosting their member numbers that they can show as people against the Bill of Rights, can you post the news letters as they come out?  That would allow all of us to stay informed, but not give them a boost in membership.

Consider it done.  ;D

They already label you a "Domestic Terrorist" if you are pro-life, pro-gun and anti socialist. So, hey, why not. I'm waiting for the DHS report that starts labeling returning Vets as "defectors". After all, they have been living amongst a foreign culture for 6-18 months.

"Because the state can no longer protect us from crime, it wants to take away from us the means of protecting ourselves. This is the logic of gun control."

We're going to need more tar an feathers..for this bunch...
