Figured I'd post this for your enjoyment:
"Dear Mr. XXXXXXX:
Thank you for getting in touch with me to express your opposition to banning assault weapons. It's good to hear from you.
I support the second amendment rights of Marylanders who enjoy hunting or who have firearms to protect themselves. Yet, I strongly believe that assault weapons do not belong on our streets and are a threat to communities across our nation. Eliminating such powerful weapons from the streets will help reduce violent crimes, including crimes against law enforcement officers.
I appreciate knowing of your opposition to proposals that would ban assault weapons. I support the Assault Weapons Ban of 2013 (S. 150), which would outlaw military style assault weapons that fire a large volume of ammunition quickly without reloading. Specifically, this bill would prohibit the sale, transfer, manufacture or importation of certain semi-automatic pistols, shotguns, and weapons with an ammunition feeding device that holds more than ten rounds. This bill would also protect the rights of hunters and those who use certain firearms for sporting purposes. Knowing of your thoughts on this issue will be helpful as the Senate continues to consider this matter.
Again, thanks for contacting me. Please let me know if I can be of any help to you in the future.
Sincerely,
Barbara A. Mikulski
United States Senator"
Does she even have a clue what she's talking about? Oh yeah, she never saw my letter, the response is either a robo email or written by some aide who is also clueless!
