Dear Senator Warner:
I am shocked and appalled to hear that you are not only supporting, but
sponsoring renewal of, the Clinton's so-called assault weapons ban. This
demonstrably ineffective legislation will do nothing to reduce crime in the
Old Dominion, and it will at best inconvenience, and at worst imprison,
law-abiding citizens who own or buy a weapon with certain cosmetic features arbitrarily banned.
Senator, I and my wife, along with many of our friends and acquaintances in
Northern Virginia and the Northern Neck have been long-time supporters of
you and the Republican Party in Virginia. If you forsake us now and join the
flaming left wing of the Hollywood elite, that support WILL cease to exist
overnight. I most respectfully ask you to consider seriously the corrosive
effect your misguided support for this sham legislation will have at the
polls. I assure you: my friends and associates do vote and we are watching
your actions on this issue closely.

Respectfully Yours,
[Leatherneck]
