If I'm planning on sending letters to the Appropriations Committee, would it be a good idea or bad idea to FAX them as well?

FAX, email, snail mail, call.... do everything you can!

We need to get Adam to admit that with Yee on a letter. IF this is only for magnets, then done - I think CGF is pretty soild on what they think about those magnets anyway. If they can write coherently, perhaps they need to hire someone that can, but if that's what SB249 is, specifically, then it may not be such a bad idea...however, my Liberal-Up-To-No-Good-BS-Meter is going off the chart, along with my blood pressure.

Here's a few followup questions for Adam or anyone that has the answer. How many of these darn magnets have been sold in CA? Is it so numerous that we need another law on top of what we already have to enforce it? Does he know the difference between the Magnets and the Bullet Button?

The fact that the law is so poorly/unclearly written makes my BS detector go crazy. If it was only magnets, then it would say that. Instead we get paragraphs of unclear text.

These guys are politicians and spin doctors. This is like a "Term Limits Proposition" that, when you read the copious amount of text, actually loosens the existing term limits. These guys go out of their way to obfuscate and confuse. I'll keep donating to CGF until SB249 goes down.

Good grief... this laptop I'm using has Vista and faxing is a pain in the neck! The last of them should finish up in the next few minutes.

I can't believe that when these law makers where sworn in, they forget the part where they swore to uphold and defend the U.S. constitution.

Welcome to CalGun MaestroPrep!

Unconstitutional Laws have to be taken to court and judged to be unconstitutional. This generally takes a long time, including various appeals to higher courts. Like a couple of years, maybe more.

Legislators do not suffer the slightest consequence for writing and passing unconstitutional laws.

Eliminating unconstitutional laws is a huge part of what CalGuns is all about. It takes support and money from members donations. See the Donate to CalGuns Foundation button at the top of the page?

THIS is the problem. ANY legislator who writes/sponsors legislation that turns out to be unconstitutional should be permanently barred from politics.

It should be a mandatory prerequisite to understand the Constitution. There are plenty more DBs around to replace those who fall to stupidity.

Adam, I, too, have sent a letter to Fox News. Of all the media outlets, they seem like they would be the ones to grab this story and at least research it. My feeling is that if our legislators can attack the 2nd Amendment, what's to stop them from attacking other parts of the Constitution or Bill of Rights. Thanks for sending this email, and hopefully, if more people can do the same, we can get the word out.

Keep us posted brother!

Fire at will.

That's my strategy.

Blast with every caliber in the arsenal.

"Spray and pray" is and effective grassroots participation strategy.

Thanks Crowesnest, I'm glad to know we are trying to get the word out. I also sent an email to Windham Weaponary. I just purchased a CA Legal SRC from them, and even registered it with them to get the the full lifetime warranty. I asked them to do everything they can to help fight SB 249. I just DROS-ed a Remi 700 on the 4th. I am also sending a letter to Remi stating the same thing. WE NEED THEIR HELP! I am stressing that if CA passes this bill it will severly affect every mfg of firearms. So what if we send corespondance to all our representatives, news organizations, and mfg's of the weapons we own? IMHO we will stand a bigger chance to win this fight is if we have big business on our side!

Shall I re-fax tonight?

It's 2012 and we have to FAX our reps to get the point across. Jeez.
