Boy do you have that right. I cannot believe that they couldn't see it coming. The trouble is that the metro areas only have a small circle that they listen too.:(
 
My letter to my Representative District 51

"Representative Fagan;

Your sponsorship of SB 941 crushed my opinion of you.
After the Clackamas town center shooting, you said you would propose a tax credit for citizens purchasing a gun safe.
Was an excellent idea to foster gun safety!
Had the owner of the stolen rifle used at the mall secured his rifle in a safe, the shooter wouldn't have had that rifle.
Didn't hear anything more about it, but my opinion of your thinking was up.

Every Memorial day for the past 20 years, my Marine buddy has borrowed my M1 service rifle to march in full uniform as a color guard.
My adult children borrow my guns when they want to target shoot at Douglas Ridge.
My friends new to hunting and target shooting have borrowed my guns to get their feel before buying their own guns.
I have secured my guns in a Cannon vault safe since before it was fashionable, 1979.

I am a law abiding citizen, but if your bill passes, you will move the line between lawful and criminal.
I won't have moved, but SB941 and your actions will have moved it.
I am one of many law abiding citizens that think this way.
If you vote against this bill, my opinion of you will rise by leaps and bounds.
If you vote for this bill, I will remember you.

Sincerely
Rick Benjamin

This is further proof that elections have consequences. The real people to point the finger at are those who did not vote at all. I don't think 941 was not about stopping crime at all for the writers of it. Just another step to take all the guns away. Suppose a year from now Ginny Burdick declares that due to a rise in homicides in Portland, there is proof that 941 was too weak or was ineffective. Then she with her cohorts, writes another even stiffer legislation. It will never end.
I only hope that this overreach will get people - even Democrats - to get out and vote differently.
