I emailed Senator Brewer who is a vice-chair for the Joint Committee on Public Safety and Homeland Security voicing my contempt for the proposed new laws...
Here is his canned response:
Senator Brewer asked that I reply to the electronic correspondence you sent to his office at which time you expressed your strong opposition to several bills that were brought up in the Joint Committee on Public Safety and Homeland Security's hearing yesterday.
As you know, the now former Senator Jarrett T. Barrios filed Senate Bill 1354, "An Act Regarding the Prevention of Illegal Gun Trafficking and Gun Violence Among Youth in the Commonwealth," Senator Cynthia S. Creem filed Senate Bill 1383, "An Act Relative to Preventing Illegal Trafficking of Firearms," Representative Paul C. Casey filed House Bill 2293, "An Act Establishing a System of Ballistic Identification," and Representative David P. Linsky filed House Bill 2340, "An Act to Improve the Tracing of Guns Used in Crimes," House Bill 2342, "An Act Protecting Children and Adults from Unsafe Handguns," and House Bill 2343, "An Act to Close a Loophole in the Assault Weapons Ban and Further Reduce Gun Violence in the Commonwealth," for consideration during the 2007-2008 Legislative Session. Senator Brewer does not anticipate, although it is impossible to predict with absolute certainty, that any of the above mentioned legislation will be favorably reported out of the committee. As the Senate Vice-Chair of the Joint Committee on Public Safety and Homeland Security and an advocate for gun owners’ rights with an A+ report card with the Gun Owners’ Action League (G.O.A.L) for over twenty years, Senator Brewer will be sure to take your thoughts into serious consideration and will closely monitor this legislation. Please let me know if you have any questions or require further assistance.
I just hope he is correct.....
