A response from my congressman.

Dear Mr. biglou250


Thank you for your message about gun control. I appreciate knowing your views on this important issue.

I am not against the possession of guns. Americans are entitled to own and use guns in a responsible fashion. Strong penalties for violent crimes involving firearms should be part of any effort to reduce gun violence. I have consistently supported tough crime control and prevention initiatives since coming to Congress.

Enforcing our nation's existing gun control laws must remain a high priority. I support efforts that address illegal possession and use of firearms. Common sense restrictions such as the Brady Law and the Assault Weapons Ban are supported by law enforcement officials who must patrol our streets. These laws help protect people from crime and violence without infringing on legitimate hunting and sporting uses of firearms.

I will continue to support efforts that help ensure our nation's gun laws are vigorously enforced. Thank you once again for contacting me.


Please feel free to stay in touch.



Sincerely,


Richard J. Durbin
United States Senator

    Glad this idiot can read the 2nd. Sporting use and hunting....makes me sick. He's just another (insert dirty word here) politician.[xx(]

    This is yet another example of politicians talking outta both side of their mouths. They can NOT support the 2nd and Brady at the same time, THAT is a oxymoron. Of coarse so is honest politican.

    Dick 'Turbin' Durbin was the same who accused our troops of 'terrorizing' Iraqi women and children. Did you expect any different?
