Mainer's Anti Gun Measure again.

Well, few democrats are at it again. Trying to make a New assault Weapons ban in Maine. Trying to fix a Problem, that does not Exist. Trying to destroy Our American 2nd Amendment rights yet again. (no surprise) Still can't fathom why Mainers vote these Scum in. Anyway this is the NRA Alert I received on this. Its being Discussed right now, though so might be too late.


LD 1579, legislation which proposes to ban the possession of so-called "assault weapons" and .50 caliber rifles in Maine is being heard next week by the Committee on Criminal Justice and Public Safety. This legislation seeks to ban certain semi-automatic firearms and .50 caliber rifles commonly used for competitive shooting and other sporting purposes. The proposal also declares certain firearms and ammunition as contraband thereby allowing law enforcement to confiscate and seize your firearms without compensation. Without a doubt this proposal is by far more insidious than the bans in California and New York City.

Please attend a public hearing on Monday, May 2 at 10:00 AM in room 208 of the Cross Building. In addition, please contact your legislator and respectfully urge him or her to oppose LD 1579!
