I'm on theBrady Bunch's mailing listand just got this:
Dear xxxx,
Imagine ... loaded, hidden handguns being carried nearly anywhere and everywhere, by anyone regardless of the law in your state.
That's what 22 U.S. Senators are pushing. Their legislation would force states, like your state, to allow dangerous people to carry hidden guns in public.
And look who's sponsoring the bill:
Senator Tom Coburn, who forced through outrageous "guns in parks" legislation as an amendment to the popular credit card bill in May;
Senator John Ensign, whose personal crusade is to gut Washington, DC's gun laws; and other A-rated NRA legislators who seek to weaken our country's gun laws in the name of "rights" and "freedom" with no reference to "responsibility."
These are the gun lobby's henchmen — and we need your help to stop them.
Donate now to support the Brady Campaign's all-out opposition to national concealed carry legislation.
If this legislation passes, it could dramatically increase the number of individuals who carry concealed handguns in public in your state ... even if your state legally bars these particular individuals from possessing guns.
Out-of-state residents who would never qualify for New York or California concealed carry permits would now be able to legally "pack heat" in your community. It reduces gun laws in all states to the "lowest common denominator" of those states with weakest gun laws.
This is madness. Please, in the name of common sense gun laws and public safety, donate to the Brady Campaign now.
We don't need more people carrying concealed handguns — on neighborhood streets, on buses, at sporting events, in public parks, or anywhere.
Please help us stop this legislation ASAP. Give your support to the Brady Campaign today. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Sarah Brady, Chair
