( A flash mob at a Buck McKeon phone bank. Who do you think organized it?)
The Los Angles Times is reporting that Organzing for America is mobilizing against Rep. Buck McKeon for his opposition to new gun safety legislation.
Do you think gun control will be a major issue in the midterm elections?
Haven't seen flash mobs used as a form of political participation before- not sure how effective it is to make a political statement through song..
Also- minor typo in the post ("legisaltion")
It's not gun safety, it's gun control and we're not interested.
Not gun safety,
Do you oppose all of the president's proposal?
Michael,
Thank you for the typo correction. I'll fix it.
No, I support the notion of more thorough background checks and a longer waiting period after you purchase a gun. But, the rest of his ideas don't make any sense and wouldn't have prevented Sandy Hook or any of the other recent spates of gun violence.
We have enough laws on the books already regarding guns, gun ownership, and ammunition. They just need to be enforced.
The Democratic Club of the Conejo Valley will be having a GUN SAFETY FORUM on Wednesday, March 27, 2013 at the DCCV Monthly Meeting.
There will be speakers on both sides of the issue. The Forum is open, but there is limited seating. Preference will probably be given to current members.
The location was scheduled for the Thousand Oaks Library at 7pm. However, there is a possibility of a change in venue.
Watch for future updates and announcements.
The House Republicans voted today to destroy medicare in order to give big tax breaks to billionaires!
