You guys are in for a fight, I'm thinking.
If a fights what they want its what they will get. Be a cold day in hell when they get my guns.
It will never fly in Missouri.
INTRODUCED BY REPRESENTATIVES ELLINGER (Sponsor), SCHUPP, MCNEIL AND WALTON GRAY (Co-sponsors) remember them come election time !! and contact your representative to let them know what you think about house bill 545 PLEASE
Saw this earlier and have already mailed all my letters to the Capitol to every rep down there. Here is what I told them:
I am writing to you in reference to House Bill No. 545 regarding gun control legislation in the state of Missouri. When you were elected, you took an oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States of America... The Second Amendment of the Constitution states:
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
I encourage to you to oppose any and all gun legislation that takes away this freedom and our right as citizens to keep and bear arms. New gun legislation will not stop events like Sandy Hook from happening or others in history. It only infringes upon the rights of law abiding citizens to protect themselves, their families, and their property.
I ask that you and your fellow representatives adhere to the oath you took when you were elected. If you plan on voting in favor of this bill, I can assure you I will do everything possible to campaign against your relection bid and this will most likely be your last time in office according to my figures. It is your choice…Vote NO on #545.
I can't see it either, really. Else I'm in trouble already.Quote:

But what happens if they get just one little part of what they're proposing in a "compromise?" That's one more piece of freedom taken. Y'all know the old saying, give them an inch and they'll take a mile. It's not really about guns. It's about the assault on our rights and our freedom.
Amen sister.
mogunowners.com is a good site to be a member. Very few members post. This site ought to be buzzing.
I was a member of argunowners.com but it's closed. I posted for 2 years and never got a reply.
msgunowners.com and tngunowners.com are a buzz everyday.
Couldn't agree more. They are trying hard tho.Quote:

Here are the Representatives sponsoring the bill. It appears they are all from the St. Louis area.
I guess they figure any press is good press, probably have basement offices, and want to be on the 4th floor. I would think they had more sense than they do. oh well, every news station and paper said they were peeing in the wind and getting there faces wet
Democrats across the country are pushing new gun laws as are Democrats in the House and Senate in DC.

I wrote my Congressman to support Funderburks bill. You can view it in the following link.

My congressman co-sponsored HB170 which is similar in nature. He supports Funderburk's as long as it's not changed too much.
