subject: what you can do

 JD> All of us must do what WE can do to help turn the seemingly
 JD> inexorable tide of new gun laws. Here's a couple of things
 JD> that I've done recently:
 JD> Our local paper, the Monroe Evening News, published 2
 JD> articles by Sarah Brady. They were the usual anti-gun tripe,
 JD> full of half-truths and other garbage. It was very surprising
 JD> to me that no one replied to them in the Letters to the
 JD> Editor section, so I did. The Monroe News (Monroe County, MI)
 JD> is a fairly middle of the road paper and published both.
(snip)
 JD> Everyone here has a PC and a word processor, so it's not hard
 JD> to write such letters. If you don't have access to the World
 JD> Wide Web, you can ask for help with research here. I've also
 JD> used Wayne LaPierre's book, "Guns, Crime, and Freedom" for
 JD> referance. Most newspapers have published fax numbers, making
 JD> it really simple to send that letter, even saving the $.32
 JD> postage!
 JD> You should also write to your congressfolks. Again, all
 JD> offices have fax numbers that you can use. I've written
 JD> Michigan's Senator Abraham on several occassions and have
 JD> received replies from his office.
Good advice Jim.  Sent my faxes out yesterday. Visit Gun Owners of America's 
web site and they make it real easy to send email to congress.  I believe the 
address is
www.goa.org.
