Daley-Blago

by Don Bekeleski

Well,  Daley and Blago got TV coverage and press coverage to deceive the people of Illinois into thinking they are only banning “real” assault weapons with their HB 2414 bill. What really got me in the gut was when Daley said 90% of the hunters don’t belong to the NRA. I thought to myself, not only hunters but gun owners too in both the NRA and ISRA also. If you didn’t here the audio portion of smoke and mirrors,  listen to it here. It should make you fume at the ears!!

I thought what is it going to take to get the other gun owners to jump on board with us. If they don’t belong, they don’t get the email alerts and as a result have no idea of what’s going on until it’s too late! The general public would hear Daley’s statement and say “Well the hunters and most of the gun owners must not object or they would be joining these two groups like crazy.” I ask, why in the hell aren’t they doing just that! If you’re out there opposing this kind of garbage legislation, why are you still being an ostrich with your head in the sand, instead of stepping up and saying, “Here I am, count me in.”

If you are not a member and you have not called your state Rep. by now, or even worse, you don’t even know who he or she is or what their phone number is, that is very, very sad and you have just helped Daley’s cause by being quiet. All the anti-gunners that call tally up numbers in the Reps offices while you look the other way and talk about what the Bears did. If you know someone like this send him or her here to hear the tape!

Did you know for the cost of one cup of coffee per month (the webmaster says two cups, and figures Don drinks more expensive coffee…) you could be a member of the ISRA? You spend more on ammo at the range.

Please jump in and give us some reinforcements in this never-ending war. Are you going to just read this and again not do anything? Are you going to let the others stand up for you? Are you willing to stand next to us? If your idea is by not joining you will remain incognito, that’s a laugh, because if you have a FOID card your cover is already blown!! If you join either or both organizations because of my appeal, please write me and I will post the numbers of new fighters in a future article. I don’t know what else to say. It’s your guns, it’s your future shooting, it’s your move. What are you going to do??
