Also, some people get a little skiddish when it comes to directly engaging with lawmakers. It may sound intimidating, but I promise you that when you step back and think about it it's almost always the other way around. They're the ones that are intimidated by you.
Think about it: they're trying to go about their business in the capitol, keeping as many people as possible happy while trying not to rock the boat (all in an effort to secure their re-election), then you have all these 'big bad gun owners' show up. There's a ton of them all over the capitol. You're in the chamber trying to fly under the radar when you get a note saying someone wants to meet with you in the lobby to talk about their Second Amendment rights. Even worse, it's someone from your district, one of your voters, the ones you are elected to represent. They're fired up enough about this issue to take time off work, drive all the way to capitol and pull you out of your chamber to talk about their rights. They're organized, they know what they're talking about, and they are very specific about what they want. There's no weaseling your way through this.
Hopefully this paints a better picture of how impactful this can be. And even if your legislators are not squared away on 2A issues (cough cough, Rob Hogg, Matt McCoy) they know the people are watching them and their actions, and that in itself sends a very strong message.
I'll be there in the capitol on the 7th and I want to do everything I can to remove barriers for people, so I'll make this offer to anyone that shows up: If you're unsure or gun-shy at all about what to say or how to say it I'll personally join you as you talk with your legislators. Strength in numbers, right? Just PM me and we'll make it happen.
