Done and Done...I will be sharing this as well. Very quick and easy. Like Tackett, this is the first time I've ever involved myself in anything political (past bitching and moaning) and I feel strongly about it. I had sent a personal e-mail to my Senator but this makes it very easy to send it to all reps all at once. Thanks.
Typical liberal "suckass"media twisting the truth,creating a frenzy & only reporting the truth when faced with the inevitable release of the police report.Looks like an "Assault Rifle" was never used in the latest school shooting.
So, it comes out that Adam Lanza never used an AR or AK in the horrible slaughter of those kids.
4 pistols, recovered.
The AR never left the car.
Doesn't change the outcome, just emphasizes that the Media will lie to push their agenda, even over the dead bodies of innocent children.
All we have heard for three weeks is how he killed everyone with an "Assault rifle".
They knew it all the time.
Here is the news clip played on MSNBC:

Dear John:
Thank you for contacting me to express your concerns regarding additional firearms legislation in the wake of the shooting in Newtown, Connecticut. Your opinion is very important to me, and I appreciate the opportunity to respond to you on this critical issue.
As the father of two, this tragedy struck painfully close to my heart and painfully close to the heart of every parent. No parent should ever have to bear the unspeakable pain of losing a child, especially to this type of tragedy. I join with every American in expressing our deep and abiding grief as a nation and our deepest -- most heartfelt -- condolences to the families of the victims.
As your Senator, I strongly defend the rights of citizens to use firearms responsibly for recreational purposes or protection of one's family and home. At the same time, I vigorously support efforts to keep guns out of the hands of individuals that wish to use them against society.
