HERE IS A LETTER FROM A CITIZEN FROM GOLDEN VALLEY,. PLEASE READ,.
Letter to postal official as follows,.,.,.,
Dear Mr. Bueno,
thanks for your support in assisting us in this task.
This is the point.
After the latest episodes of Colorado Church shooting and the Mall
shooting in Nebraska, our community in Mohave County has formed a committee
to ask to the USPS about our right of carrying a gun in your building.
We have felt that every time because of our business we are "forced" to
enter a "GUN Free" zone we get really stressed and we feel violated of
our civil rights of self defense.
The case in specific that put me on this task is the USPS as Federal
Building in Kingman, since USPS has the monopoly of the stamps and we
must go there.
There is a sign outside the door that states not guns are allowed.
At the same time no security is provided.
We have formed a committee ofalmost 100 residents and we were committed
to go in front of a judge to sue the USPS for violation of civil
rights, emotional stress and potential endangerment, becuase of the violation of our right of self defense in the building..
We have spoke in person with Alan Korwin, author of Arizona Gun Laws
and Gun laws of America.
Bottom line he told me that there is no need to sue the feds, since we
have already the federal law that allow us, regular citizens to carry
for "(3) the lawful carrying of firearms or other dangerous weapons in a
Federal facility incident to hunting or other lawful purposes."
The problem is that if we go inside maybe the local law enforcement or postmaster
does not know this part of the code, and we are going to end up in front
of a Judge.
We are law abiding citizens and we don't want that.
My idea is to have a press conference with you, with the Mohave County
Sheriff, the County Public Defender, the County Attorney, the
Postmaster of Kingman, Chief Devry, and state Senator Ron Gould and the media,
in Kingman.
We want to hear that we are allowed to carry as the code says... if
somebody object put it on the record and we'll go from there.
thanks again for your cooperation
best regards
Luca
