Wrote Charles Schumer expressing that I disagree with any and all gun bans and stated many facts about guns especially military style guns and spoke of the lies about them in the mouths of politicians and how facts are always ignored.
Here is his vague response with no talk about ar15s etc and no stance about a ban.
Typical bullshit. New York is really in trouble seeing that most politicians here agree with a ban on military style rifles or even worse, a ban on anything but spoons and dull pencils.
Dear Mr. Lamiroult:
Thank you for contacting me regarding gun control legislation. Like you, I believe the right to bear arms is guaranteed by the Constitution’s Second Amendment. The recent Supreme Court decisions reinforced this fact, but I believed that this was the case prior to those decisions.
While I certainly respect the Second Amendment to the Constitution, I believe that we have a collective interest in keeping guns out of the hands of those who want to harm the innocent. I believe it is possible to strike a reasonable balance. I have long advocated for faster and more accurate background checks so legal purchasers can receive their guns quickly while ensuring criminals do not illegally purchase and possess firearms. In 2011, I proposed S. 436, the Fix Gun Checks Act to provide more funding to states to compile required background data for the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS). This legislation builds on the National Rifle Association-supported NICS Improvements Amendment Act, passed by Congress in 2007. Ensuring that this information is comprehensive and up to date will protect law enforcement from criminals with illegally obtained weapons while speeding up the process for purchasing legal firearms.
You may also be pleased to know that I have successfully fought to create new opportunities for law abiding citizens to exercise their right to use guns. For example, in the 109th Congress, I secured federal money to expand the scarce hunting grounds in New York State by creating a financial incentive for private landowners to allow hunters access to their property.
Thank you for contacting me about this important issue. Please do not hesitate to contact me in the future if I can ever be of assistance to you on this, or any other matter.
Collective interest eh? Guy doesn’t mention all his anti-gun BS.Try writing him from a liberal perspective, and you’ll get a different form letter back. Talks out of both sides of his mouth.
Me too. A ban here in NY will be much easier to pass than a federal one. Leaves us with the option of doing whatever they say or resistance. I’ve written and called a bunch of NY politicians. When that fails because of their bullying and blinding what can one do? If I move, it means I left my wife as she refuses to leave.
THIS is the same mo-fo that for DECADES said the 2nd Amendment
DID NOT guarantee an individual, but “collective” right. I distinctly
remember him saying that DOZENS of times in the eighties.
I also remember the absolute hissy fit he had over Glock pistols…or as he, the media, and Hollywood at the time were calling them…“ceramic guns”. He yelled & screamed for YEARS about glocks being able to go thru an xray “completely undetectable”. O FUCK we heard this shit of his for YEARS & YEARS. He can BULLSHIT some who werent around, or are not old enough to remember, but MANY of us still do. HE NEVER EVER RECOGNISED THE 2A UNTILL THE SCOTUS JAMMED IT DOWN HIS THROAT, PERIOD. This fuckstick has hollered, screamed and cried about everything from “Saturday Night Specials”…to " Hi-Powered Sniper Rifles"…“Assault Rifles…MachineGuns”…“Cop Killer Bullets”…“Black Talon Ammunition…how it RIPS & SPINS THRU flesh”…and so much more complete and total shit Ive forgotten more than Ive listed here. He is a TOTAL ANTI-HUNTER also. He aint foolin nobody nowhere. I hope.
I’m 37 and remember him being anti but didn’t remember specifics.
I read recently he went on a hunting trip and it opened his eyes. Fuck you Chuck. They all spout bull shit like him and know absolutely nothing about guns at all. So sick of it.
Btw, tried to click the link at the bottom of his email to respond and it is a dead link. At least for me it is.
Hey newyork-
I aint even looked, and aint gonna cause Ive heard his shit for 30 years now, but try to find some vid of him back in the eighties & nineties talking about firearms or the 2A. He NEVER ONCE EVER said it was an individual right, only “collective”. Only for "hunting guns, and guns for “sport”.
An ASSHOLE from the ground up.
Oh yeah. Do you remember the Winchester Black Talon ammo? Do you remember the SHITSTORM Chucky boy caused over this COP KILLER AMMO? Well, they sell the EXACT bullet today, only the black lubealoy {sp?} coating that gave it its color has been removed, all to apease Chucky boy. Ive got it loaded right now beside me in my G17…Winchester +P+ 127 Talon. But, it aint BLACK, so it must be “safer” I guess. What a piece of SHIT he is.
Do I waste my time and write him back calling him out on his bullshit or just take it as a lesson and chalk it up to him being someone I can’t count on?
Bro-
I say this to YOU…AND EVERYBODY ELSE on this board right now.
Our letters DO NOT make the SLIGHTEST fuckin bit of difference on this subject. NOT ONE will be swayed one way or another. If they are anti…theyll be anti after tossing your mail in the trash. If they are pro…then theyll remain pro. Ive been told to “nut up” on here, without that person ever knowing what many of us my age have already done for DECADES.
An CLASSIC example of what Im talking about. In the late Eighties, Al Gore…yep…fuckin ALGORE…was my TN Rep in Congress. I PERSONALLY talked to him in County Couthouse where Im from, about guns, the 2A, ect. He ASSURED ME & SWORE UP& DOWN how pro-gun he was. I remember leaving happy. about 2-3 weeks later, I forget now what it was, some big gun bill was coming up for a vote. A few shooting buds had told me he was full of shit about guns, so I WROTE…no email then…him a letter expressing my dislike of guns and wanting him to vote for the bill…JUST to see what the fucker would say. BINGO…you guessed it, "got to keep guns out of criminals hands…assault rifles not for hunting…reasonable restrictions…BLAH FUCKIN BLAH. ALL the same old code words theyve used and still used for 40 years now.
If it makes you feel good, if yall just HAVE to do “something”, then email/write the bastards. Its a complete waste of time. Ive got MANY MANY MANY more examples that I could, but aint telling.
NONE of yall will make the first one of those incompetent fucks change their minds, one way or another. So…NUT UP all ya want.
THE GOVERMENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA IS AS CORRUPT, INCOMPETENT, CO-OPTED, & AS UN-CONSTITUTIONAL AS ANY OTHER ON PLANET EARTH.We have THE NERVE to talk about N.Korea or Iran or Egypt or anywhere else…and we’ve got THE biggest nutsacs on EARTH “runnin” the show.
And people keep thinkin that theres something they can do to make a difference.
THE HELL IT IS.
Don’t let them discourage you from writing even more.
No politician is is going to read a pro 2A letter and change course. They will do what Schumer did. That’s just who they are… but if you don’t write… they will get on TV and say… “I’ve had very little contact from 2A supporters which means they agree with us”
NO SIR.
I do NOT know that to be the case.
What Im saying is, lets take Chucky Boy. You, me…Jesus Christ…would not get him to change his mind on guns, period. No amount of rationale, no amount of statistics…NOTHING will ghange his mind. THOMAS JEFFERSON COULD NOT MAKE CHUCK SCHUMER CHANGE HIS MIND ON GUNS, PERIOD.
And I dare say all the other anti-gun pols are the same too.
Quick…somebody tell me ONE politician who went from anti to pro gun AFTER this last shooting. NOT ONE. But several went the other way, didnt they?
Newyork, in your state…YES, YOU ARE FUCKED. Im so sorry. Upstate NY is such a gorgeous place, full of good folk. But the majority of your state, and your entire REGION, is full of fuckin SHEEP,LEACHES, TAKERS, NON-CONTRIBUTORS,LAZY, IGNORENT LIBS and yall are forever fucked because of it. IVE BEEN THERE, ALL OVER, HUNDREDS OF TIMES…I KNOW.
As far as the Country goes… I personally believe we are living right in the middle of the end of America. Itll go out as a REPUBLIC, and go into a some as yet unseen/unknown form of socialism/communism/eliteism/totalitarian form of government.
My old 35+ year buds and I talked over the holidays…we got out of school in '83…and we would have fuckin DIED had we known what this country has turned into since that time. To us/me…IT IS UNRECOGNIZABLE. And…in a couple more decades, itll be the same to some on here who are much younger. Only, its getting worse expodentially {sp?!} faster now, with media and comm and internet and cell phones and all the electronic shit people bury their heads in daily.
MAKE UP YOUR OWN MIND NOW, TODAY…what your gonna take. Whats the limit? Half your check to taxes? 75%? Guns registered,or taken? Cameras, drones, eyes EVERYWHERE? Government reading your emails…seeing what you look at on the internet? WHAT IS YOUR LIMIT? Then, decide, are you FUCKED…or not?
tb-av.
Do you know how many times Schumer, just on the issue of guns, has been proven factually wrong?
He absolutely said that the NRA RIGGED the tests, when they proved to him and the media that Glocks COULD NOT get thru metal detectors/xrays undetected. He WOULD NOT accept it. He was proven wrong so many times and the idiot wouldnt shut up about it FOR YEARS. Then, they tried to explain to him the diff between semi & full auto. O FUCKIN HELL. This guy. It waslike talking to a mentally challenged two year old. { God Bless Them!}
He STILL goes on about “automatics” to this day.
As far as him sayin “he isnt hearing a lot from pro-2A people”.
Brother…cmon on now man. Really? Do you really think, IF HE DID hear from us…he would let that be known? Or, it would matter to him? Brother…I KNOW you want to do something. GOD BLESS YOU FOR THAT. But we are at a time, in a place,politically, morally, financially, economically, nationally, socially, that we;ve just never ever been before. The FUTURE of the USA is being written DAILY, right in front of us. As our Founders knew, and every enemy we ever had knew, and knows, America cannot be defeated from outside. ONLY from inside, …“all enemies, foriegn AND DOMESTIC”.
And one day, I hope SOON, a Paul Revere is gonna ride again, and give warning that THE GOVERNMENT IS COMING…THE GOVERNMENT IS COMING!!
Then, each & every one of us will have to decide how far we are willing to go, to try to set things right again.
Again, I ask…are YOU fucked or not?
