Drafting a good argument for no mag limits & AWB for senators & reps

[wacki]

I'm writing my reps and I'm wondering if anyone has written a letter to their reps saying "NO mag ban"

Sure you can pop off one sentence, but it would be nice to have eloquent supporting arguments. My skill sets are on the technical / science side of things and I'm sure there are much more eloquent people here.

So what are you writing?

1. Go to http://nraila.org/get-involved-locally/grassroots/write-your-reps.aspx
2. enter zip code
3. click on representatives name
4. click "contact tab"
5. Click on "Contact Rep. XXXXXX via Web Form. "

Numbers game

I believe while eloquent, technincally informative, and accurate arguments are the best tool to use in almost any debate, your not arguing with rational people. This will be boiled down to numbers. How many letters for each side will be received by your reps, sen, speakers. I promise not one "guns kill people, they're bad" letter will go to waste. It is important more than ever that we sound educated and civil, however most all our letters won't be read by our reps but rather their minions, counted and calculated into a staticstic. Don't be fooled into thinking your reps, care about anything other than who's going to promise them the most votes to ensure they have a job next election. So even if your argument isnt stunning, charmning, and persuasive, make it sweet simple and clear where you stand, most importantly just SEND IT!

I challenged them to show me one instance in which gun bans or magazine capacity limits or "gun-free zones" prevented a crime.
p*ssing into the wind, I know, but maybe they'll actually think about it?

I kept it short and sweet for the minions.
