Ruger- Take Action
« on: January 12, 2013, 01:13:48 PM »
There are a lot of folks out there who write letters and emails to legislators, but some want to but may not because they might not know exactly what they want to say.

There is a link on another thread with a 'one-click' option to send a copy of your letter to all parties concerned, but you still have to compose the body of the text.

Ruger has taken it on step farther. They have a simple form letter, and all anyone needs to do is fill in the personal particulars and click 'send' and a copy will go to all legislators, state and Federal, that apply to you based on your zip code.....as well as AG, VP, and PotUS.

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

EXCELLENT !!!

Thank you for posting this link and a big 'Thank You' to Ruger for providing the service.  The message is simple, concise, and gets the point across in a respectful manner.  There's even a counter to show how many have taken action: http://www.ruger.com/micros/advocacy/.

Great sentiment, but don't do it!

Use it for a template, and write your own.  These types of emails or pre-printed post cards are dismissed by politicians.  Their staff will tell them they got X cards from a certain place, but a single phone call, person email or personal letter from a voter out weights a thousand of these.

Go ahead and do it.....just don't ONLY do this.

Do all the rest m58 suggests also.

Extra and Overkill won't hurt here.

I'm a little dismayed that ALL of the recipients of mine are (D)s, although our local State Senator and I talk quite often and he's tried to get expanded CCW and revoking the ballistic fingerprinting law.

Thank you for giving us this link.

I've writen different letters to my reps and senators, but also sent this one to all listed so that I reach politicians I didn't think to and to add to the mountain of dissent on this attack of our rights.

M 58 again shows his lack of thought, while he is correct in saying to contact them on your own, but it is stupid to think that 19000 contacts from just one manufacturer in the last 6 hours will be ignored.
