I got on the bus 4am and rode to Albany ,,we went to about 10 legislative offices to discuss Hunting ,Trapping, Handgun permits, And the 50 cal ban,
I was happy with our trip I got to educate a couple of staffers as to what a 50 cal ban actually meant [Never used in a crime weigh 40-45lbs and shoots ammo that costs $2.50 a shot] I also told them what will you do when we make ammo in 49 cal/48/ 47.5 cal?????. BAN THAT TOO!
I met my state Senator,My Assemblyman and many many staffers AND OTHER SENATORS .
I also learned that the best way to get the attention of your elected officials is to HAND Write Letters. E-mails can get deleted without reading -Petitions don't hold much weight. But a written letter in a envelope will get read..
I took my wife as she has a major in political science and thought it would be a good experience for her .
As to guns we went across the street to the museum where they had a 9-11-01 section in that was a display case with about 15 crushed burned guns recovered from the wreckage of the towers.
All in all a good trip,,On the way home we had sandwiches and COLD Beer--I drank my share while trading gun hunting stories with fellow riders...
