ASSAULT WEAPONS BAN HR 6257

Here is the text of my letter I sent to Congressman Brian Baird regarding the assault weapons ban. Please feel free to copy and paste it and send it yourself to your Representatives. I was unable to send it to Maria Cantwell and Patty Murray as their sites were down. I will keep attempting and will post when I meet with success.

H.R.6257

Assault Weapons Ban Reauthorization Act of 2008 (Introduced in House)

In my opinion, this legislation is flawed and will do nothing to lessen violent crime of any kind. All this bill will accomplish is depriving law-abiding citizens of these types of weapons. The criminals will always have access to them. The voting American public understands what is being attempted by our Representatives who were elected to represent us and who swore to uphold the Constitution of the United States, including the 2nd Amendment. This bill in no way serves the law-abiding public and appears to be nothing more than a thinly veiled attempt to disarm the public of these so called dangerous assault weapons. As a member of the NRA, a concerned citizen and voter, I urge you to not vote in favor of this bill or any others of this nature.

CURRENT BILL BEFORE CONGRESS - H.R.6257 Assault Weapons Ban Reauthorization Act of 2008 (Introduced in House)

Here is the text of the bill. It looks like the same crap that the Dems did in the Clinton era. Everyone needs to write to the Representatives and tell them NOT to vote in favor of this bill. The last time the Dems did this, a bunch of them were voted out of office the next election. They need to be reminded of that fact.

INFIGHTING IN OPEC, DEFERS CUTS (TEMPORARILY)

Click on the title to go to story. In my opinion, we need to crush this cartel. We must continue to reduce our consumption of oil by driving less and slower and mandating the development and marketing of alternative fuel vehicles. I am of the opinion that hydrogen and electric are the wary to go.

WHERE'S JOEY?????
