Thats one way of looking at it but hell there's been some good things come from Goals work and 2a. The way I look at it is if you don't try then go crawl under a rock and whimper as they take your property or like any good bar fight, even if your down there's always great satisfaction in lobbing in one more punch as it just might make the difference. I'll be departing this state to a more friendly one in a few but still don't want to see the guys (and gals) here screwed over. Plus crazy crap like Linskeydoodle spreads like an STD.

Although I can't attend the Cape hearing tomorrow, (Dad passed away Saturday and this week is all preparations for the wake/ funeral) I still want to submit a written testimony to the committee. Does anyone have the email addresses that they can be submitted to? Like I said last week, I had called the senate and state offices for this committee to find out what email addresses to send them to, and no one ever called me back.
Don't email. Email has been come cluttered to the point of useless. Snail mail is better.
Committee members can be found here:
https://malegislature.gov/Committees/Joint/J22
Send it to the two chairs at a minimum, but no harm in copying all of them...
GOAL has a sheet on their page:
PAGE: Public Hearings Prep Page
SHEET: http://goal.org/Documents/Public Hearing Documents/testimony-sheet.pdf
Whether you use GOAL's sheet or not, make it clear what you are for or against.
I would recommend against manifestos and think about your reader and how quickly and effectively you can convey your message to them.
If they stop reading "here" what will they be left with? Can they they quickly figure out which pile to toss this? ("For" or "Against")
I am told the Committee has indicated they understand there are ~60 bills coming up and what they expect, understand and even prefer general commentary on how existing and proposed laws impact us.
There are a handful of bills that will make your position clear if you focus on them as your "guide posts":

Green are things that are good for us, red are very bad...
There are of course many other bills and feel free to mention them specifically as well...

Important update for people planning on attending tomorrow's hearing at C.C.C.C. This page now has a press release from J.C.P.S.H.S. a full listing of legislation to be heard with GOAL's stance, and a map of the school so you can find the hearing.

I like the bullshit about having it held at schools. Auto-disarm so that if something does occurr, they can take you away at gun point.....
They rarely do... and we know why...
Nothing secret squirrel, I meant the state of MA giving us very little notice and info about hearings, not the NRA. Sorry...
They (MA) don't want us to come...

Heading down the Cape this morning. Plan to be there early.
My condolences on the passing of your father. Use this week to focus on your family, and don't worry that you miss one session - just attend as many of the remaining ones as you can. They are all part of the same process and one assumes that the feedback they get is cumulative.
I also had to miss today's session (due to kids still being in school), but will definitely be at the next one (with them in tow) and at as many as possible of the remaining sessions. Look at it this way - you only get 3 minutes per appearance... I have way more material than that.

so some info from the fellas who ho would be awsome I will be going to the one in Worcester!From what I've noticed: anti gun groups are repeating the same things over and over from prepared statements. Pro gun speakers are more real world statements and getting a much better reaction from the crowd. A lot of the anti's have left shortly after their statements.
The board members seem to be leaning more towards the anti's as they are thanking them after each of their comments while barely acknowledging the pro-gun speakers

Make no mistake; it is scripted. The anti gun groups have been working on these for a month, and have disseminated this amongst one another.

Yes, they have all repeated it verbatim.
Quote from rabbi: (paraphrasing as accurate as possible)
"No one owns an 'assault rifle' for sport, unless its the sport of killing people"
!?
Then one whack job gets up and spouts nothing but ignorance and F's it up for everyone...
After the professor spoke in the beginning we All should've got up and left it at that. Does anyone know the name of the professor that spoke 1st?? Wish I had heard his name.

Ill be at the one in AIC in springfield. I work down the street from there. Hopefully, their will be other hispanics making a stand against gun control. I am tired of these ignorant bastards blaming me for the violence caused by a criminal.
Its funny how much crime is caused in a city compared to a town, yet the gun grabbers will never admit that.
