No Background Check, No Gun, No Excuses 28APR11 & H.R. 308: Large Capacity Ammunition Feeding Device Act

PLEASE watch the video and then contact your Representative by clicking the link below or the header of this post...And check out H.R. 308 Large Capacity Ammunition Feeding Device Act in this post, click the link to see if your Rep is a co-sponsor of this legislation in Congress. LET"S level the playing field and remove all restrictions on people carrying guns in all government office buildings so the politicians who are too cowardly to enact reasonable gun control face the same risk as the rest of us. And I want to know, can a person keep their gun when visiting the offices of the NRA or do they have to be checked at the door? From the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence......

No Background Check, No Gun, No Excuses
 
Dear Friend,
We believe that Brady background checks should be required on all gun sales.  It just makes sense. Right now there is a loophole in the Brady Law that allows people to buy guns at gun shows without going through a Brady criminal background check.
Take a moment to watch the powerful video. Victims and survivors of the 2007 Virginia Tech massacre and Brady staff came together to make this video to call on Congress to close the gun show loophole.
But we can't do it alone. If you haven't already, click here to send an email to urge your U.S. Representative to cosponsor legislation to close the gun show loophole.
If you have signed it, thank you! You can continue to take action today. You can help by simply:
> Forwarding this email to 5 friends
> Signing up to give $5 a month
With more and more people taking these simple actions, just think about the impact we will have.
Our politicians will hear thousands and thousands of us stand up and say, "Enough is enough!"
