Link to the petition; everyone sign!!!

Well I made many calls and if I am not mistaken I think it was his staff who told me one of their fund raisers was a skeet shoot. Now that is refreshing!

I'm contacting the my reps but I don't feel good about this at all.
Who the hell would take him?

The best medicine is everyone in PA contacting the HJC members as it appears from the responses I received they are getting an overwhelming number of OPPOSE calls as to NON-OPPOSE. So let Fast Eddie show up on Tuesday and allow him see what the people of PA want.

Emails sent, phone calls to follow. They started it, we may not finish it, but we'll sure as hell fight it, here and at the polls!

Sent e-mails to every name on the list, and forwarded the alert to my pro-gun friends. Some of them have also e-mailed. Received a response from Rep. Pallone which was pro-gun - a good sign. Sounded like he had gotten many contacts, mostly pro-gun. Keep up the good work!!

I got a response back from John Pallone, Bev Mackereth, and also from Katie True.. she actually wrote
"I am a 66 year old female gun owner with a permit to carry. I will be a "no" vote. -Katie True"
I actually cheered outloud when I read that one.

Emails done, petition signed. Damn it is refreshing and odd to see legislators with common sense. Just looking at the site for the ACSL and seeing how many members of the judicial committee are pro-gun and how many are "undecided" was nice to see a LONG list on the pro-gun side

I don't think these people much care what the citizens of this state want. They will do what they want to do because they don't fear the people.

Keep them straight up there guys. Wish I could help out in some way, but we have a potentially ugly legislative year coming up down here. Good luck, kick some rear.

Angry Re: [PAFOA Alert] URGENT: PENNSYLVANIA ANTI-GUN PACKAGE VOTE ON TUESDAY AM

I have contacted every Legislator in my Pike County district, asking them to oppose this nonsense.

Luckily, they all profess to be pro Second Amendment including
Rep. Siptroth a Democrat. I also urged them to gather their like minded colleagues, and stage a news conference to alert Ed Rendell, and his minions, that they will not support this attack on our rights. Let them know it's dead on arrival?

Further, I asked that they submit bills to stiffen the penalties for straw purchase, and illegal use of firerams. Adding many,many years in prison for the illegal use of a gun, and actually put the bad guys in jail without parole,plea bargain, suspended sentence, or any other lib inspired nonsense. That is real crime control

Oh yeah, watch the demons from Philly co-sponsor that legislation? You betcha!


Preaching to the choir, who in the hell but we, the law abiding, will follow those stupid laws? The friggin libs in Philly, PA live so close to Jersey, they think they can attack our rights, as the evil beings in Trenton do. It won't fly here.
