Unfortunately we will probably be just like you or worse within the next 4 years.... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/barf.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbdn.gif" alt="" />
Well, when the ban comes up, lets just make sure we all email our elected congress people with the message:
"If you let this pass, myself, my family, my friends and their families and friends will never vote for you again. A ban on legally owned firearms will not keep them out of the hands of criminals, who by definition do not obey the law and who source these weapons from already illegal sources.
All you would be doing is alienating your potential voter base and killing off a billion dollar industry, which has thrived as one of the only ones since 2008."
No other threats, mentioning religion or anything that will make us seem like wackos. Politicians respect losing votes and tax revenue from businesses, but only if brought to their attention by people who seem like balanced and mature adults.
