  1. Feb 28th Rally in Albany... Anybody going? I am and others I know are too. This is going to be one to attend and should be pretty big. More info below.... The New York State Conservation Council urges your participation in the Gun Rights Rally and Lobby Day to be held in the Well of the Legislative Office Building in Albany on Thursday, February 28, 2013, from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. The theme of the Rally is "The NY SAFE Act Must Go!!" Organized by the NYS Rifle & Pistol Association with cooperation from the Shooters Committee On Political Education, this is an opportunity for you to join with other sportsmen/women to let Governor Cuomo and state legislators know of your strong opposition to the recently-passed NY Secure Ammunition and Firearms Act. If you are gun owner, you need to be in Albany on February 28. According to SCOPE, "We are being called to Albany on February 28th to make our voices heard as one united coalition. The Governor's SAFE Act does nothing to keep anyone safe. It does put onerous and restrictive regulations on law abiding, tax paying citizens [who] are being singled out by a small minority with an agenda that can only be labeled as dubious." The NYSR&PA says this is a day to lobby the state legislature on gun rights. It recommends that you call your Assembly Member and State Senator to make an appointment to meet with them in their offices on the 28th after the conclusion of the Rally at 12:30 p.m. Go to the home pages for the NYS legislature, www.nysenate.gov and http://assembly.state.ny.us, where you can find your legislators by entering your home address and/or zip code. It would be a good idea to make an appointment with a legislator who is not from your home district … deliver your message to the downstate/ metropolitan legislators as well. The February issue of NYSCC's Grass Roots News contained several articles concerning the gun control issue that can serve as reference for talking points; be sure to refer to the newsletter for ideas. Don't forget the ladies and youth! Bring them along if you can; show the legislators that there's more to this issue than a bunch of hunters in jeans and flannel shirts. Youngsters and women like to shoot, too – it's a family pastime enjoyed by many! There are several public and private transportation options to get to Albany: Several groups are putting together buses to Albany: From Long Island: the Sportsmen's Association for Firearms Education, contact John Cushman 631/475-8125 From Ulster County: the Federated Sportsmen's Clubs of Ulster County, contact Elmer LeSuer 845/340-7404 From Erie County: the Erie County Federation of Sportsmen's Clubs, contact Rich Davenport 716/510-7952 From Utica/Mohawk Valley: contact Peg Roberts 315/941-6360 From Central NY: the Oswego and Onondaga County Sportsmen's Federations, contact Rick McDermott 315/882-1540 Check www.nysrpa.org and www.scopeny.org for additional areas that may be chartering buses for the trip to Albany. Amtrak to Albany: Take the train to the Albany-Rensselaer (ALB) station. From there either take a private taxi or CDTA bus to the Empire State Plaza. Driving to Albany: Parking is available under the Empire State Plaza. Cost is $2/hour and paid with a credit card. To get to the ESP take 1-787 to the South Mall Arterial exit. After parking take the elevator to the concourse level. The Legislative Office Building is accessible from there. Food and restrooms are available on the concourse level as well. Remember to check your pockets before your lock your car and leave behind anything that might be construed to be a weapon; you will be asked to dispose of pocket knives, tools, scissors, etc. as you pass through security. Be respectful with your message and your attire; wear business casual dress; no camo. A neat shirt and slacks, with or without a jacket, will send the message that you should be taken seriously. Once again, if you have any trouble with the links, just copy/paste them into your browsers address bar.
  2. Word has already gotten out quite a bit all over NY. It's important that we keep fighting for our freedoms.... Something we can do as gun owners for a reasonable amount of money, to sway our state representatives into changing this new gun law in New York State. That is, if everyone who owns a gun, or who believes in the right to own guns, would take the effort to write a simple note to their state assembly person, senator and this governor, expressing their opposition to this new gun law. Most people will not write because they don’t know what to say, this is where the club leader ship should be willing to write a form type of letter so others would have an idea about what to say in their own letter. The amazing thing is the cost of a piece of paper, envelope, stamp and one hour of their time, verses not being able to attend a rally or send in a couple of hundred dollars to NYSRPA which is what some of us are going to do. If every person that owns a gun or like I said believes in the write to own a gun would do this simple task, we would flood their mail boxes with letters that they cannot ignore. It will get their attention when it is expressed to them that you will not vote for them if they voted for this new gun law. If we can get this to all clubs and gun owners from Long Island to the Canadian border and from Buffalo to the Vermont/ Massachusetts border the effect would stagger their offices and bury them in letters. Thousands of letters get their attention and make them think a little harder that they will be out of a job after the next election, verses one letter with a thousand signatures which they throw in the garbage can. If your elected official voted against this law they deserve a letter telling them how please you are with their decision to do so. The crazy part of all this is, we have not had an incident in New York State with an AR 15 type rifle or a legally owned glock high capacity magazine handgun, but they want us to pay the price for others actions. It will take the effort of a lot of leaders from a lot of gun organized clubs to accomplish this, however it can be done with the help of the internet this is very doable. If our club leaders take the time to get them the names, addresses and how to do it, this will get a lot of attention. LET THIS MOVEMENT START HERE WITH US, LET THEM HERE WHAT WE HAVE TO SAY IN OUR OWN WORDS, DON’T BE RUDE, JUST DIRECT AND TO THE POINT THAT WE ARE OPPOSED TO THIS NEW LAW AND DISPLEASED WITH THOSE THAT VOTED FOR IT. Remember the movie Miracle on 42nd St and what that court room looked like with all those letters, we as gun owners can do the same thing with our foolish representatives. Gun owners should all send letters between March 1st and March 7th of 2013, let them see the power of gun owners when our backs are to the wall.
  3. Nazi Weapons Act of 1938 (Translated to English) · Classified guns for "sporting purposes". · All citizens who wished to purchase firearms had to register with the Nazi officials and have a background check. · Presumed German citizens were hostile and thereby exempted Nazis from the gun control law. · Gave Nazis unrestricted power to decide what kinds of firearms could, or could not be owned by private persons. · The types of ammunition that were legal were subject to control by bureaucrats. · Juveniles under 18 years could not buy firearms and ammunition. This sounds very familiar.
