Call or e-mail your senator, especially if he or she is a Dem, and let them know you oppose the four bills, HB13-1224, 1226, 1228, and 1229.
-House Bill 1224
magazines that hold more than 15 rounds. It effectively states that your life is only half as valuable as that of a state agent, who is allowed standard capacity magazines.
-House Bill 1229
force background checks for all gun transfers. Exemptions are made for gifts among immediate family members. There is no means for enforcement except for universal registration.
-House Bill 1228
a fee for background checks. The state presumes your guilt, and demands you pay to prove your innocence. A tax on an enumerated right is a poll tax, whatever you call it.
-House Bill 1226
concealed firearms from college campuse. The "Seung-Hui Cho Virginia Tech Memorial Act". Unless all of our schools are completely gun free, a suicidal madman runs the risk of encountering a "hostile work environment".
Feel free to cut and past any of this in your letters. Make it snappy, time is short.
