There already is a petition here to end the horrible gun violence of automatic weapons and loss of life. Which many people have signed.
Right now there are two bills in Congress for the NRA to win even more rights over people and life.
To own a gun is one thing to own multiple guns and automatic weapons are different. When do lives matter over weapons.
Here copied and pasted are the two bills. Please contact your state reps and stop these bills from passing for more gun rights over life. Thank you. Pasted below. A copy of this can also be found on the site of Everytown and Mothers Against Gun Violence.
Dear lawmaker,
For too long, the NRA leadership has been allowed to force their dangerous "guns everywhere" agenda in Congress -meaning that too often, profits have been prioritized over the safety of the American people. And I've had enough.
The horrific shooting in Las Vegas forces us as a nation to decide: Will we accept the status quo and allow mass shootings and gun homicides to be the backdrop to our daily lives? Or do we want to live in a country where we can go to the movies or a concert or school or work or church and be safe from gun violence?
Right now, two extreme bills are sitting with Congress:
(1) H.R. 38 - "Concealed Carry Reciprocity" -- which would allow people to carry hidden, loaded handguns in public throughout the country without ever getting a permit, passing a background check or receiving gun safety training.
(2) A provision in H.R. 3668, the SHARE Act that would make it easy for anyone -- including domestic abusers and felons -- to get a silencer.
Today I ask you, as my Member of Congress, to reject these bills. These dangerous gun bills are the top priorities of the NRA's leadership for 2017, and they do nothing to address gun violence. Instead, they would make our communities less safe and put the safety of American families and communities at risk.
