Petition the Whitehouse

This site currently shows over 1,700 pages of registered members. I don't know how many actual members that is, but, I bet it's a bunch. I didn't sign the petition. I wrote all my state representatives bringing the matter to their attention. Back in the day, I was involved in politics. Even got elected twice. I have never forgotten what an old, "wise"(?) politician told me..."Personal letters mean much more to me than petitions. Petitions are just a form letter you probably agree with. Personal letters are your true feelings".
 
Greg,

If you really believe that this one instance is all it takes to get any of us on a list, I suggest that you might be being fooled also.

I've been on several lists since I got into this business and really since I was a teen and started applying for hunting licenses. I can't begin to tell you how many sets of finger prints I've paid for and have on file with various agencies. Your participation in a shooting forum website is enough to get you on a list. A membership in the NRA or application for a FOID card will get you on another set of lists. So the reality is that we're already there and if one signature puts a little more pressure on the idiots in Washington then I'm on that list as well.

My point is that we need to keep up the pressure from all fronts, not just our representatives, some of whom are in cahoots with the Dems anyway. Hit them from all sides, continuously, not letting up until we stamp them out for good. Screw the lists.

Regards.


The list thing was simply a joke, I guess I should've used a smiley face. The part about sending any type of a gun-related petition to the people currently running the show, however, was not a joke. As I stated, I applaud the sentiment behind that effort, but it will not change these peoples' minds. Nothing you can do short of completely removing them from positions of power/influence is going to have any effect whatsoever, and you would be wise to accept that fact, and act accordingly.
 
And can you believe the petition has. Only had 200 sign up . Larry

Because most people would rather complain and sit and do nothing and say it wont work than spend the 3 minutes it takes to sign it. Just between the numbers on this site and snipershide should be enough to do something.

I got it on my phone And I care And don't take excuses . Larry
 
I'm certainly not opposed to your idea and petition, but do you honestly think that CLOWN in the White House gives a crap about anything to do with Gun Rights or Pro Gun people????? Hell I doubt he'd ever see the Petition in the first place. The only really good news is that the REIGN of Prince Obama is coming to an end...the sooner the better!

I agree with the smiley faces. While an excellent means of communicating, the written word can be cantankerously difficult to achieve the absolute proper meaning sometimes. I often forget about the smilies but regret afterwords when I should have used one...

...and you would be wise to accept that fact, and act accordingly.

I have managed to make it though a significant portion of my life without taking certain types of suggestions, especially when someone uses the phrase "you would be wise...". It raises the hackles on the back of my neck almost instantly. So in this particular situation, I think I'll forgo the suggestion and follow my own experiences and instincts. But thank you for thinking of me, I appreciate it.:D

Best Regards.

Ok dipshit, let me clarify since you seem to be having serious trouble mis-interpreting and over-interpreting things I've written today. "you would be wise" means exactly that. Nothing you ever write and/or send to any group run by the left with regard to gun control will make even the slightest scratch. Nothing. "act accordingly" means vote. Nothing more, nothing less. Honestly, I don't give a shit what you do or don't do. Frankly, you're worse than the liberals; at least I know which side they're on.
 
About the time this petition hits the black house, the potus will be on a vacation spending 75-100 million bucks of taxpayer money anyway. so really?
