TRADING GUNS FOR "INTELLIGENCE"...?

Dear Senator,

Why is the ATF (Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms agency), providing guns to Mexican crime cartels?

I've been reading about how the ATF, under the control of the US Presidency, has been helping to provide military grade guns to the violent Mexican crime cartels, who are importing the vast majority of America's illegal aliens, cocaine, and methamphetamine. Dubbed operations 'Gun Runner' and 'Fast and Furious,' elite weapons such as AK-47 Assault rifles and Barret .50 caliber sniper rifles were allowed to pass freely into Mexico, while the Obama administration called for a crack down on American gun sales.

The Executive Branch of the federal government has been caught lying about border security, leaving our borders wide open during a time of war, failing to protect states from invasion as required by the US Constitution, and now providing military grade arms to the invaders. I want Congress to use all possible remedies including investigations, prosecutions, impeachments, and possible charges of treason to put a stop to this.

The evidence suggests that the American government has been corrupted and compromised on a grand scale regarding the importation of drugs and illegals into America. Military tribunals may be needed since those responsible for this betrayal have been arming paramilitary groups with military grade weapons to invade America during a time of war.

Agents are telling the media that this operation was approved by the Department of Justice under Eric Holder. President Obama is denying that he knew anything about the American government sanctioned shipments of large amounts of arms to the drug cartel insurgents.

I simply don't buy the ATF's unbelievable claim that the guns were allowed into Mexico to "gather intelligence" on drug cartels.

The elite organized crime syndicates receiving the American sold weapons, compliments of the American ATF, are responsible for murdering tens of thousands of Mexican citizens in the last few years.

Thousands of innocent American citizens are being killed by these gangs and their illegal alien cargo each year!

Tens of thousands of Americans, predominantly young adults and children, are becoming addicted to and succumbing to the chemical weapons of mass destruction deployed by these groups in the form of cocaine and methamphetamine.

I'm appalled that the Obama administration has order our Border Patrol agents to fire "bean bag rounds" while arming the smugglers with fifty caliber rifles.

Liberals have done all in their power to support illegal immigrants over the wishes and interests of American citizens for the last ten years, which has led to massive job and community instability and an unprecedented shift in US Census counts.

Senator, we Absolutely MUST hold accountable the ATF, Eric Holder, and Obama himself in this "Gun Runner" operation...!

Right-to Carry permits

Dear Senator,

Please cosponsor and support the Thune-Vitter interstate right to carry recipocity amendment.

The U.S. Senate is now considering the National Defense Authorization Act (S. 1390). As a part of the consideration of that legislation, Senators John Thune (R-SD) and David Vitter (R-LA) will offer an amendment this week to provide for interstate recognition of Right-to-Carry permits.

The right to self-defense does not end at state lines. Under the Thune-Vitter amendment, an individual who has met the requirements for a carry permit, or who is otherwise allowed by his home state's state law to carry a firearm, would be authorized to carry a firearm for protection in any other state that issues such permits, subject to the laws of the state in which the firearm is carried.

This amendment is a legitimate exercise of Congress's constitutional power to protect the fundamental rights of citizens (including the right to keep and bear arms and the right of personal mobility). States would still have the authority to regulate the time, place and manner in which handguns are carried.

Expanding Right-to-Carry will enhance public safety, and certainly poses no threat to the public. Criminals are deterred from attempting crimes when they know or suspect that their prospective victims are armed. A study for the Department of Justice found that 40 percent of felons had not committed crimes because they feared the prospective victims were armed.

The Thune-Vitter amendment recognizes that competent, responsible, law-abiding Americans still deserve our trust and confidence when they cross state lines. Passing interstate Right-to-Carry legislation will help further reduce crime by deterring criminals, and -- most important of all -- will protect the right of honest Americans to protect themselves if deterrence fails.

The Thune-Vitter Amendment represents a giant step forward in the protection of the basic right to self-defense. Its passage will recognize that the rights of law-abiding Right-to-Carry permit holders should be respected, even when they travel outside their home state.

Please cosponsor and support the Thune-Vitter interstate right to carry recipocity amendment.

H.R. 45 Gun Bill

Are you ready to give your guns to the government?

Are you opposed to national gun registration?

Are you opposed to a written examination to buy a gun?

Are you opposed to a new $25 gun tax?

Are you opposed to a total ban on private firearm sales?

Have you heard of the gun bill that is pending in Congress?

H.R. 45 is the most sweeping gun control proposal ever proffered in America.

H.R. 45 would establish a national gun registry database which would:

• Increase requirements for firearms purchases, far beyond those ever proposed.
• Create a national firearms registry overseen by the Federal Government.
• Invoke Draconian penalties for bookkeeping errors related to the Federal Firearms Database.

It gets worse though.

This bill will FORCE you to take a written exam to prove that you are "fit" to exercise your Constitutionally protected right to keep and bear arms.

I'm outraged by this…!!!...I don’t want the government to FORCE me to do ANYTHING…!

Gun registration is the first step on the road toward totalitarian confiscation of all firearms by a federal power.

In addition to the outrageous national gun registration requirement, the bill also requires you to:

• Pass a written examination to purchase a firearm.
  Release your medical records -- including confidential mental health records -- to the government to get your "fitness" to own a firearm approved.
• Observe a two-day waiting period before all firearms purchases. (Perhaps I can live with this provision.)
  Pay a gun tax of $25 or more on all firearm purchases. (Now this tax is over and above the usual and customary sales tax, so it boils down to the fact that the government is trying to control my behavior by taxing my actions……..and I just can’t fully express to you how offensive this is to me…!!!)

Moreover, H.R. 45 bans all private firearms sales and maximizes penalties for minor clerical errors in dealing with the national gun registry.

The National Association for Gun Rights has a petition ready for you to sign.

I signed it, and hope you will too.

Even though they will ask for a donation at the end of the petition, please don’t let that discourage you.
