It was the right thing to do. If we get gun owners to rise up and speak as a single voice, that voice will not be ignored. But, if only a few of us speak up, then the bill will get cut back to nothing. Our friends are giving us a chance to show we can work together. If we fail, then our friends will be less likely to help gun owners in the future because they do not want to bleed for us if we are too afraid to fight.
Talk is cheap, actions speak.
Grassroots is formulating public policy arguments and getting our web site ready to go. But, you are going to have to send postcards and faxes when we ask you to do so. They do not need to be long and detailed. Short and sweet will do just fine because the politicians are counting numbers, not evaluating arguments. Grassroots speaks for me on this bill.
