It is very difficult to isolate my districts and find out who represents me. I would like to send snail mail or email to them to let them know I do NOT support gun control and would hope that they represent their constituents and NOT the Liberal Media or vocal Gun Control idiots. I want to remind them of their Oath of Office to "Support and Defend the Constitution of the United States of America.", regardless of their personal position on the matter.

If you are interested in sending emails to your political reps regarding

the U.S. Gun Control Push, you can use this link below:

Click on the "Take Action Now" button.



It is provided courtesy of Sturm Ruger Guns. All you do is add your personal

info (Name,Address, Email, Etc.) and THEY compose and send the letter in

Your Name to all of your local reps and senators. You do not even have to know

who your reps are. It is based on your Zip code, so they already know who to

send them to.

Your representatives are shown through links in us.gov. The NRA also shows your representatives referenced by zip code.



You can also borrow or paraphrase my letter below to my congressman.



"January 26, 2013



Dear Congressman Miller:



Senator Feinstein and others are again violating our right to adequate weapons for keeping government under citizens' control. Neither elections nor courts have ever been reliable enough for that purpose. Both representatives and judges are too inclined to serve themselves first.



Anti-Federalist farmers and tradesmen registered in their Bill of Rights our right to military weapons for defense against domination from government influenced by Federalist Party bankers and merchants. They were particularly concerned about abuses forced by the "well regulated [meaning fully trained and equipped] select corps of the young and ardent" now called the National Guard. The Federalists wanted those to protect their businesses from rebellions like Shays's had been against Massachusetts banks.



We citizens and our right to military weapons are always the final arbiter in conflicts between us and exploitative, oppressive, and/or repressive government. That is regardless of promises from a never perfectly trustworthy government including even the Supreme Court.



It is my duty as a citizen to not tolerate any authorities' violation of our rights. That is so even as today's society of too many spoiled and sheltered little children in adult bodies cry for their imagined parents in government to pretend protection all ways and always.



I greatly regret Senator Feinstein and others are doing this. I will not accept restrictions on adequate defense against any authority. You absolutely are denied the right to do that and you swore to honor that and other safeguards for our liberty. If you further violate with these bills the restrictions government must honor I will no longer honor any firearms restrictions past, present, or future."

You can find your local representatives by using google. You may want to include your zip code in the search, and also the word "Congress" "representative" "senator"



My bias is towards saving hundreds or thousands of lives a year through gun control. It is so sad that of all the people who attempt suicide, guns are the most lethal method, and that hundreds of people every year use guns to kill themselves.

Mailing addresses and email addresses are EASILY found online.



Takes seconds to find your Senators and Reps.



You obviously didn't even bother to search for them.
