Does anyone else receive correspondence from NAGR? I don't exactly remember how I found them but I'm sure they seemed legit or I wouldn't have bothered with them. It's hard to verify any info I receive due to only being able to use my iPhone and when I can use the work PC the filters block a lot of sites. Below is an email I recently rec'd from them. Apologies for the long read.
Dear Jeremiah,
I've got bad news.
With the help of a handful of spineless Republicans, the gun grabbing Democrats and Governor Jack Markell have succeeded in passing a massive expansion of background checks with a de facto gun registry in Delaware.
But the war on guns in Delaware is NOT over.
You see, news reports have surfaced that the NRA is so hell-bent on getting a victory in Delaware, that they're even switching sides to do it.
That's right.
They're teaming up up with your gun-hating Attorney General, Beau Biden on House Bill 88 -- a GUN CONFISCATION bill.
If passed, HB-88 would give the state of Delaware the power to seek out and destroy the Second Amendment rights of any otherwise law-abiding gun owner they can label "mentally ill."
The "mental illness" angle is a potent weapon in the gun-grabbers arsenal to expanding the list of "prohibited persons" from owning a firearm.
Make no mistake -- it's not about identifying those who are truly a danger to themselves or others.
Reporting duties in those specific cases are ALREADY well established.
This bill is about finding an excuse to label as MANY residents of Delaware "mentally ill" as possible and stripping them of their gun rights -- including you.
In fact, thousands of law-abiding veterans have already been denied their Constitutional right to keep and bear arms based on being deemed "mentally defective" for having a trustee manage their Veterans Affair benefits!
These veterans are not a danger to themselves or others, yet over 100,000 have been denied for "mental health" reasons.
HB-88 would expand that practice to include anyone and everyone the statists in Delaware can find dirt on.
Worse, it would REQUIRE GUN CONFISCATION by directing law-enforcement:
"to forthwith search for and seize firearms and ammunition of any such person prohibited."
Now Jeremiah, I know you're not crazy, but the anti-gun lawmakers in Dover -- even "Republicans" -- are looking for any excuse they can hide behind to sound "reasonable" to the anti-gun crowd.
After all, just a few weeks ago it took hundreds -- or perhaps even thousands of your phone calls, emails, and questions to reign in supposedly "pro-gun" Republicans, like Senator Gerald Hocker.
Now the NRA has just handed all of them the perfect excuse.
I'm very afraid that unless you keep up the pressure, "pro-gun" Republicans and Democrats will be even MORE willing to flake off and join the rabid anti-gun crowd, including the NRA, who are calling for GUN CONFISCATION.
But what's worse is the untold consequences...
Experts have been cautioning that these proposals will scare law-abiding gun owners away from seeking "mental health" care if they need it.
Could you imagine... having the police barging through your front door and hauling off your firearms -- your PROPERTY -- just because you're grieving with loss of a loved one or some other major life event?
What if you and your spouse went to couples therapy?
Could you imagine... a minor disagreement necessitating your counselor reporting you to the government -- all because their employers are pressuring them to for liability reasons?
This bill opens up Pandora's box.
Anything you say or do that could possibly resemble a threat to yourself or others, EVEN if it is made while under the influence of pain medications or in an emergency room setting could result in you losing your right to keep and bear arms.
That is, if the gun grabbers have it their way.
Mental health prohibitions are a slippery slope that the Left wing liberal gun grabbers are happy to exploit.
Things are moving quickly.
And HB-88 isn't the only scheme in the works.
One other bill, SB-16, is on the verge of going to the Governor's desk.
If passed, this bill would make YOU -- the victim -- a FELON if you fail to report the loss or theft of your firearm within 48 hours.
Both HB-88 and SB-16 are on the verge of passing your State House.
Jeremiah, ONLY YOUR ACTION can help put an end to the War on Guns in Delaware.
That's why I need you to take action RIGHT NOW:
Please contact your state lawmakers (look them up by Clicking here).
*** Senate DEM: (302) 744-4286, GOP: (302) 744-4048.
*** House DEM: (302) 744-4351, GOP: (302) 744-4171.
URGE them to OPPOSE HB-88 -- the GUN CONFISCATION SCHEME -- as well as SB-16, and all anti-gun proposals.
These bills could move fast.
Right now, the legislature's schedule is extremely fluid. So, it's VITAL you contact them right away.
For Freedom,
Dudley Brown
Executive Vice President
P.S. News reports have surfaced that the NRA is actually working with anti-gun Attorney General Beau Biden on a GUN CONFISCATION bill in Delaware.
Jeremiah, I'm very worried this will trigger a domino effect of supposedly "pro-gun" Democrats and Republicans caving-in to the anti-gun agenda.
Please contact your state lawmakers (look them up by Clicking here).
*Senate DEM: (302) 744-4286, GOP: (302) 744-4048.
*House DEM: (302) 744-4351, GOP: (302) 744-4171.
URGE them to OPPOSE HB-88 -- the GUN CONFISCATION SCHEME -- as well as SB-16, and all anti-gun proposals.
Also, please consider chipping in $10 or $20 to help the National Association for Gun Rights keep up the fight for pro-gun legislation and against anti-gun schemes in Dover and Washington.
