AWB also gone , but not quite time for celebration

TITLE SHOULD READ ALMOST GONE


ACTION ALERT ** ACTION ALERT ** ACTION ALERT
Congress returned from its summer recess today. The so-called "assault weapon" and full-capacity magazine bans sunset (expire) at midnight on Monday, 13 September, 2004. Our "window of risk" is extremely narrow, BUT IT STILL EXISTS.

The Brady Campaign, the Violence Policy Center and other gun control groups are promoting a "œCall the President"� campaign on Thursday, 9 September to push for extension and/or expansion of the bans.


NOW IS THE TIME to call, e-mail, fax or write your elected officials (Representative and Senators and President Bush) and urge them to resist such a move. Two separate federally-funded studies have shown that the ban has had no effect on crime rates.

the problem is , is even if this ban actually does get to expire , just look at how bad the next gun bill is going to be . i'm not celebrating at all , i'm worry about 4 years in advance to be truthful with you.

we need to get some pro-gun laws enacted . that would be something to e-mail and/or call your reps. and senators about as well !!

I read an article in one of the Denver rags today, that said pretty much the same thing. Just not so detailed.

my wife had on the today show, and diane sawyer had the detroit police chief on to argue with some lady from the NRA. it was obvious by diane sawyers snide comments that she was in support of the ban. what an agenda....
