Sent e-mails to reps and will call tomorrow. Thanks for the heads up.
That's because 9mm is easy to shoot and ammo is cheap.
Don't most LEO's use Glocks? I guess all the cops are going to just start slaughtering folks. I'm never leaving the house again.:uhoh:
So everyone who has a glock 19 is automatically a madman?! Everyone who has an extended magazine is a madman!?! This is such garbage!!!
I agree; you have to be crazy to buy a glock.
Sorry, thought we needed a little levity.
I agree! Let's ban all Toyotas!Two shooters are reported to have used it and that makes it the preferred choice?
Let's see....I have seen two accidents involving Toyota Camrys. So, the Toyota Camry is the preferred choice of dangerous drivers. Hence they should be banned.

I deem it appropriate to carry whatever firearm the media currently has on the "must vilify" list. Of course this will put you on the permanent "mad man" list.
Everyone that's responded to this thread; have you contacted your Senatorial offices yet?
(I got the nagging gene from my mother...)

PLEASE oppose any effort (especially quick, knee-jerk reactions) to further infringe the rights of citizens to keep & bear arms. I am concerned that some factions will see the tragedy in Tucson as an opportunity to pass poorly thought-out laws that will not do what their makers intend, and may in fact end up being unconstitutional (while wasting time & money which could be better spent).
While the mass murder in Tucson is a tragedy, so are the deaths of innocent citizens across the country who are attacked by criminals. This happens every day, with little recognition and certainly no Presidential speech or moment of silence in the Houses of Congress.
Every day hundreds of thousands of US citizens carry a handgun, openly or concealed, for their personal protection. I am one of them. I have never threatened anyone, never harmed anyone, and never killed anyone. Every day I pray that will continue to be the case. But if my life is threatened, I will protect myself. That is why I carry.
Why should my rights be infringed because some criminal decided to commit murder? (Answer, they shouldn't, any more than my driving should be restrained because someone else murdered by DUI.)
News flash: criminals don't obey laws.
Seems like such a simple concept, but so many people think that somehow by having words on paper saying something isn't permitted that will magically stop bad people from doing bad things. It hasn't worked yet. If it worked, criminals would see that the law says they can't murder & so nobody would be killed.
Please don't make the situation worse by making it harder for good, law-abiding people like me to protect ourselves. Vote against any restrictions on my (and your!) right to keep & bear arms.
