URGENT ALERT!!!
Anti-gun Zealots Trying To Ram Disarmament Bill Through Senate
-- Immediate action required

You'd think that when rabid, anti-gun legislators like Sen. Charles
Schumer and Rep. Carolyn McCarthy join together to pass anti-gun
legislation, it would raise a few red flags.
But these two New York Democrats are currently planning to roll over
gun owners with H.R. 2640 -- legislation which would bar you from
owning guns if:
* You are a battle-scarred veteran suffering from Post Traumatic
Stress Disorder; or
* As a kid, you were diagnosed with ADHD.
Not to mention the fact that your ailing grandfather could have his
entire gun collection seized, based only on a diagnosis of
Alzheimer's (and there goes the family inheritance).
Gun owners have been desperately fighting this bill for several
months. You will remember that it passed in the House with an
unrecorded voice vote in June and was later passed out of the Senate
Judiciary Committee -- also without a recorded vote.
Sen. Schumer is pushing hard to pass this legislation -- dubbed the
Veterans Disarmament Act -- so he is circulating an
"agreement" which
would waive the Senate rules in order to bring up and pass the bill.
This agreement could come about in the next few hours or the next
couple of days!
This agreement is extremely diabolical, as it would eliminate the
ability of pro-gun senators to offer amendments which would clean up
the legislation... and would grease the skids for immediate passage!
But there is good news: In order for Schumer's "agreement" to
prevail, he must get "unanimous consent." This means that just ONE
single senator can block it.
ACTION: Please contact your two U.S. Senators RIGHT AWAY and urge
them to OBJECT to Senator Chuck Schumer's "unanimous consent
agreement" to steamroll H.R. 2640, the McCarthy anti-gun bill.

Pre-written letter
Dear Senator:
Currently, anti-gun zealot Chuck Schumer is trying to get "unanimous
consent" to steamroll the Senate in connection with Carolyn
McCarthy's anti-gun bill, H.R. 2640.
If this bill is passed, an American would be barred from owning guns
if:
* He is a U.S. veteran suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder;
or
* As a kid, he was diagnosed with ADHD in connection with the IDEA
program.
Not to mention the fact that an ailing grandfather could have his
entire gun collection seized, based only on a diagnosis of
Alzheimer's from a Medicare home health provider (and there goes the
family inheritance).
Gun owners don't support this legislation, better known as the
Veterans Disarmament Act. The Military Order of the Purple Heart is
opposed to it, having stated on June 18 of this year, that "For the
first time the legislation, if enacted, would statutorily impose a
lifetime gun ban on battle-scarred veterans."
Please place a hold on the McCarthy bill and object to any unanimous
consent agreement to discharge the bill.
Sincerely,
****************************

Letters written and as good as in the mail.
BTW, I added this:
"In closing, I would like to emphasize my opposition to this proposed law and all other forms of patently unconstitutional abridgements of the peoples' right to keep and bear arms."
Let them know that you're not just opposed to this bill, but to all forms of gun control.0 -
Hey, it's all good.
The NRA SUPPORTS this bill. [:(!][:(!][:(!]0
