Folks,
I've provided links to the
Judiciary Committee and from there the links to the committee members. Letters to each of them should be sent.
Keep your letters short and simple.
Dear Representative XXYYZZ,
I am strongly opposed to HR 4269 and respectfully request you oppose this useless attempt to infringe upon my rights as a citizen.
As you and everyone else knows the firearms the usual suspects want to ban are nothing more than a symbolic first move to ban all private possession of firearms. The FBI, DOJ and CDC have repeatedly shown these rifles are involved in a minescule percentage of crimes and removing them from public sales will not move the needle one bit in reducing homicides. If there's no public safety basis for banning these firearms then what is the real basis for this legislation other than to support the political careers of the opponents to our way of life? Since the firearms bear no functional difference to firearms the gun prohibitionists claim they don't intend to ban it is assumed that our ever-grasping enemies intend to ban these guns based on their appearance and then when no benefit is seen intend to move on to all semiautomatic firearms like these. The ultimate goal of fearmongers is to gain control over the people for their own political gain and not for the benefit of the people.
I strongly oppose HR 4269 and expect you to as well.
Respectfully,
AABBCC
OR, if you have a soft on the 2A Representative
I am strongly opposed to HR 4269 and respectfully request you oppose this useless legislation.
As you and everyone else are aware, the FBI, DOJ and CDC have repeatedly shown these rifles are involved in a minescule percentage of crimes yet are used for sporting and defensive purposes across the country. Removing them from public sales will not move the needle one bit in reducing homicides unless it puts one of the 150,000+ citizens of this country that have used firearms to stop a violent crime at greater risk of becoming a victim. If there's no public safety basis for banning these firearms then what is the real basis for this legislation other than to support the political careers of some?
Since the firearms bear no functional difference to firearms the sponsors of this bill claim they don't intend to ban it must be assumed that the ever-grasping intend to ban these guns based solely on their appearance. When no benefit is seen they will blindly to move on to all semiautomatic firearms. Instead of focusing on the root causes of crime, poverty, lack of opportunity, hopelessness and the culture of violence seen in the areas with the highest violent crime rates, they squander our time and resources on objectifying an inanimate object and demonizing Democrat and Republican gun owners. The ultimate goal of the sponsors of legislation like this is their own political gain and not for the benefit of the people.
I strongly oppose HR 4269 and expect you to as well.
Respectfully,
