No need to worry.

The NRA will be along soon to prevent such a thing.

Why would you expect an organization that represent 2% of the voters to be able to stop an overwhelmingly anti-gun Congress? When voters elect anti-gun legislators they get anti-gun laws. The NRA can influence it and try to limit the damage. Apparently you don't want that, you want the full on anti-gun laws passed which is why you are mocking the NRA for trying to help people. Why do you hate freedom?

Awesome, we have gained 2% today. For those wondering, polls like these get brought up in the Hearings each year!

Rhode Island is a one party state and a very liberal one at that. No matter what the voters wish for, an assault weapons ban will pass.

So who are the councilman/state assembly people who will be voting on this? Put their names/office numbers in OP and we can flood the phones.

Thanks Negative Nancy, if you had read the thread you will see we have fought these bills off every year since pre Newtown. If you would like to help us do so again, I include links to the email adresses of all of our legislature earlier in the thread.

Posted "NO" in ProJo poll linked above, and I STRONGLY advise posting in the Poll. RI Pols pay a LOT of attention to polls so your vote against gun restrictions will be noted. Vote early and often.

Don't disregard internet polls;; local newspapers will use such to polls to reinforce original Anti-gunner editorial viewpoint.

In short, the more you tell your local paper that they are wrong, the more likely they are listen.

Most papers are close to dead, so make sure you post your pro=RKBA response ASAP

Almost 400 years down the road and New England is still rife with the Puritan Problem. They came here for their freedom but won’t let anyone else have their own freedom.

Anti gun crowd? Gun owners are chopping up their own guns and closing their own stores.

No wonder the gun grabbers feel emboldened. We're are own worse enemy.

I think we need to start pushing the agenda that , "Yes they are rifles designed to kill. They are the only thing keeping this country free from total communism ".
Put it in their faces and start asking why they want to take away the only thing that stands in the way of total loss of freedom and liberty.
