Since my post last night, Substitute Senate Bill 5038 moved a little closer to going to the Senate floor for a full vote.
You see, the anti-gunners have rich doners and they must be able to show that they were able to accomplish "something" this legislative session.
We don't have a bunch of wealthy doners backing us - a fact for which I am proud!
It's just you, me and our keyboards, doing this on our own time and our own dime doing what needs to be done.
So: Please write your Senator TODAY and ask them to oppose SSB 5038.
You Can Comment Via This Link or if you have your Senator's email address, you can email them directly.
Or you can find your legislative district here which will give your your Senator (and Representatives, but we want to focus on the Senate at this moment). You then click on the link to your Senator which will take you to another page where you will have to click on the "Email" link next to their photo.
If you already know who your Senator is, you can simply
Go straight to here to get their email address.Here is some copypasta if you would like:
STEP 3: Copy and personalize your email. For Republicans, thank them for opposing.
Subject: Use your own subject to ensure they don’t just delete all look-alikes!
Senator LAST NAME, I am in in your district and I live at ADDRESS (Important as they cannot delete if you live in their district).
TALKING POINTS (copy or add your own)
Please oppose SSB 5038 prohibiting open carry. This bill and amendments are still ripe for abuse especially in communities of Color; the bill directly mirrors the racism and classism of the Mulford act banning the open carry of firearms to disarm black civil rights protesters and activists in California.
The “permitted” demonstration clause is moot: a permit is not required on most public grounds and most cities and city parks allow permitless free speech events
Any gathering of 15 people becomes a protest, ensnaring lawfully carrying citizens, like on a sidewalk in CHAZ or Esther Short Park in downtown Vancouver where Antifa gathered to destroy property.
A Black family picnicking in a park and subsequently surrounded by 15+ members of a hate group would be arrested for lawfully open carrying.
An LGBTQ group holding a vigil are left vulnerable to further hate crimes when their security team is arrested for openly carrying firearms after a hate group gathers around them
Most businesses and many individuals lease property, preventing someone from lawfully protecting their lives at their apartment or at their place of business they don’t own
Allowing unpermitted protests in parking lots and open spaces under the control of a business is an extreme danger to the safety of customers
Feel free to add your own points as well.
Or, as I have said in my other post, you can simply type: "Please oppose SSB 5038. Thank you".
