How to write a letter properly to your elected official.

If you agree with what your representative is doing, send them a note or letter saying so, even if it's not about firearms. They might find you to be intelligent and may begin to listen when it concerns firearms.
My local reps are completely anti-gun. They do not respond to my friendly articulate letters at all.
