I want to say thanks to all of you out there taking a stand. I plan to stand with you. It does my heart good to hear your stories and your statements.
Kathy, Think you have a great statement. Whistlers Mom, I agree that you should say you are not a gun owner but think others rights shouldn't be infringed. MDShooter, I think, Closing statement is good but you might want to reference FBI stats. If memory serves there were 3 murders in MD with rifles. I don't think any with the proposed ban weapons. I also think the guns weren't lawfully owned. So in affect there were 0 homicides in MD by the guns in question. Should be easy to look up.
Norton, thanks for all you do. I sent an email to a delegate asking a similar question as to how best to approach this panel.
Question: I know Feinstein, Schumer and others who want the ban have concealed carry permits, does anyone know if members of the committee have CC permits? Could be an interesting point to make if they do.
To me we may want to play by the same rules as our advasaries. If they don't like what you say they tarnish you and say you are bad and they are good rather than argue the facts. The facts say the only thing that lessons crime is CC. Almost every stat I have seen says gun bans favor the criminal. Might be a good ace to have up ones sleeve. Can anyone find out about this?
I plan to talk about the registration aspect. To me it is the most heinous part of the legislation. Criminals get fingerprinted however they want to finger print us for exercising our Rights guaranteed by the constitution. I will tailor as it forms in my mind.
It is good to hear Liberty is still in fashion with many. Warms my heart.
