Note I just sent to the Brady Campaign - Page 2

They've never replied to my thank-you letter about the Florida billboards.

You'd think if they really believed their propaganda, they would try not to be so rude to an armed-and-dangerous Floridian....

If they believed thier propaganda they'd all live in D.C. where they would be "Safe".

Lets hope that the Brady Bunch will continue to spend there advertising dollars wisely and erect more signs in other states as they did for Florida.

Here is an e-mail I sent them:

While driving to Florida this weekend to visit my family, I noticed a sign on the side of the freeway reminding criminals that Florida residence have the right to defend themselves. I applaud you for your efforts in keeping citizens safe by warning criminals that their evil ways will not be tolerated. As a residence of Louisiana, I would like to ask for your assistance in my state as well. As you know, crime has been on the rise since Katrina hit our shores, and I think that a friendly reminder to criminals that Louisiana also has a "shoot the intruder" law on the books would be helpful in stemming the violence. Also, Louisiana is a "shall issue" state and a Louisiana citizen only needs to get the proper training to receive their Concealed Weapons Permit. As a permit holder myself, I know that I feel safer walking the streets, and would like others to have the same feeling of safety. Again, thank you for your efforts. Since the Florida law came out and your signs have come up, crime has indeed gone down.

PS: Other members of my family live near Washington DC, a very anti-gun city. As you know, crime there is out of control. After we get the laws changed there, I would love to see one of your signs on the Beltway. Keep up the good work. With an orginization like yours, reminding criminals that they will not be tolerated, there will be less dead criminals to deal with.

And if you ever receive a postage-paid envelope from them, be certain to mail a copy of this email back to them in it!
