I thought I'd get off the TROLL thing and post a little good news.
I received an email from Sen. Ron Johnson in response to one I sent him a while back ,he is co sponsoring S570 that was introduced by Sen. Jon Testor that would prohibit the DOJ from requiring reporting of multiple gun sales by FFL's .

That is good news. I also recently emailed my two senators. Hopefully they will also co-sponsor, but not likely. Here is the text of the letter I sent. Feel free to use it if you want.

Dear Senator Webb,

I urge you to co-sponsor and give your full support to S570 which would prohibit the Department of Justice from tracking and cataloguing the purchases of multiple rifles and shotguns. The recent action taken by the the BAFTE to require reporting multiple rifle sales in California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas is a blatant invasion of privacy. My firm belief is that this is nothing more than an attempt to distract attention away from Operation Fast & Furious. In a time when many are struggling to make ends meet and our own elected officials cannot cooperate with each other, tracking the purchases of law-abiding citizens seems like a supreme waste of resources. This policy does nothing but place an undue burden on gun buyers and gun shop owners. The American people will not be led to believe that the violence in Mexico is caused by the sales of guns from just four states. Once again, I strongly urge you to oppose any restrictions on my right to keep and bear arms. I also urge to to oppose these unnecessary reporting requirements and focus on what is really important. Please co-sponsor and support S570. Please let me know how you feel about these issues. I am an active voter and will cast my vote accordingly. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you.

i got the same one...


Thank you for taking the time to contact me regarding your support of the Second Amendment of the Constitution, the right of the people to keep and bear arms.



As your Senator, I believe it is my primary responsibility to uphold the Constitution and the Second Amendment is no exception. I will continue to strongly support our Second Amendment rights. One of the bills I have chosen to cosponsor regarding the Second Amendment is S. 570 introduced by Senator Jon Tester (D-MT) on March 14, 2011. This bill would prohibit the Department of Justice from tracking and cataloguing the purchases of multiple rifles and shotguns.



Thank you again for taking the time to share your concerns with me on this issue. I apologize for any delay you have experienced in receiving this reply. Since taking office in January, my office has received over 180,000 pieces of correspondence. We are working hard to respond to your concerns in a timely manner.

Please feel free to contact me in the future with anything important to you or your family. It is an honor to serve you and the good people of Wisconsin.
