My email to Senator Feinstein...
Sen Feinstein,
The amount of disrespect and contempt that you have for our Military Veterans both present and past borders on unintelligent discourse.
With statements like this:
“The problem with expanding this is that, you know, with the advent of PTSD, which I think is a new phenomenon as a product of the Iraq War, it’s not clear how the seller or transfer of a firearm covered by this bill would verify that an individual was a member or veteran and there was no impairment of that individual with respect to having a weapon like this.”
You completely show your ignorance for veterans and for PTSD in general.
Senator, If us veterans did our job half as bad as you do yours we would all be dead right now. This country trusted us to use our weapons to defend them. War is terrible, and we have to live with that, but we are far better equipped to handle any firearm than you. We are not some rabid dog that you must put down.
We have committed no crime worthy of the suspicion you obviously hold towards us. We are citizens of the United States of America and we have more than earned the right to be treated with respect by our duly elected officials.

I wonder if she feels the same way about the "Greatest Generation" returning from WWII and Korea, or those sent to Vietnam?
She really is the real deal when it comes to being nut. Would like to hear the reply you receive.

I sent that to her on 3/11/2013 and have yet to receive a reply. Not even an automated form reply.

100's of Texas educators take free concealed handgun class
There is another thread regarding state & local initiatives but I think this follow-up ties nicely to one of the core suggestions made herein. Some snippets:
-----------------
A concealed handgun training class envisioned by former Navy SEAL Chris Kyle before his death drew hundreds of educators to a Texas school auditorium Saturday.
More than 700 teachers and administrators attended the all-day session on gun laws and safety at Kennedale High School in Dallas-Fort Worth area, The Dallas Morning News reported.
...
Leah Smith, a first-grade teacher who attended Saturday's training class, told the Fort Worth Star Telegram she supports arming teachers who receive proper training.
"More protection can't hurt," she told the paper. "Maybe it would save lives."
Complete article here.

Long way to go in the information war.
Video was made to demonstrate the level of gun ignorance.
Sheep to the slaughter.
