I made a comment in one of the threads about what your legislative agend might be as far as gun laws...and said that we needed to approach it from the big picture, and fully reinstate our rights as stated by the 2nd amendment instead of aksing them please to give us a little bit of it back.
I got this email, and thought maybe some of you might take interest. Sure, the Conservatives took back the house, but they don't get to move in until January, and in the mean time, the prgressive libs are PISSED OFF WITH NOTHING TO LOSE, so they can, and WILL, try to push through anything and everything they can, and guns are at the top of the list.
Here's an eamil I got that you might want to take a look at...and stop worrying about CHL and OC long enough to make sure we even get to keep our guns in the firts place, or are going to be forced to use them as intended and not just as toys and play things to take out and make go bang.

My friend,
The anti-gun establishment is furious with you and they want their revenge.
And unfortunately for us, their anti-gun cronies in Congress are still in power until January.
They call it a "Lame Duck" session and it started yesterday.
And unless gun rights activists like you contribute to this fight, gun-grabbers like Sarah Brady and Michael Bloomberg just might secure a last minute victory.
So will you chip in just $10 or $20 toward this fight?
If you haven't already, please read my email below to see why your help is so important.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Subject: Harry Reid's "Goose on Steroids"
Dear Gregory,
After what you and I both saw on election night, I hate to be the bearer of bad news.
But the truth is, the hordes of newly-elected pro-gun Congressmen and Senators won’t be sworn in until January 3rd.
Until then, President Obama is STILL armed with massive majorities -- and they are coming back to Washington next week to pass as much Big Government legislation as they can.
Not only that, but there are still dozens of anti-gun Republicans in both houses of Congress, as well.
With Election Day now behind them, they’re no longer even trying to hide their DISGUST for the Second Amendment.
That’s why what happens in the “Lame Duck” session of Congress over the next few weeks WILL be our toughest test yet.
As Harry Reid put it, the "Lame Duck" session is going to be a "Goose on Steroids."
So I’m counting on you to sign and return the petition I've drafted to your U.S. Senators DEMANDING they lay off your gun rights during the “lame duck” session of Congress.
I'll give you a link in a second, but I want you to know just how important this is.
The fact is, the gun-grabbers believe that right now is the best chance to ram through their entire agenda, including:
*** The Disarming American Citizens Act -- H.R. 2159, the so-called “Denying Firearms and Explosives to Dangerous Terrorists Act of 2009” -- allowing anti-gun Attorney General Eric Holder to revoke the Second Amendment rights of ANY American he chooses based on pure “suspicion;”
*** A new so-called “Assault Weapons” Ban, targeting ALL semi-automatic rifles and shotguns -- which, unlike the Clinton ban, will NEVER expire;
*** H.R. 45, the “Catch-All” Obama Gun Control Bill, which would create a national gun registry, require a two-day waiting period, hike taxes on gun sales, federally ban ALL private firearms sales and FORCE you to take a written exam just to prove you’re “fit” to own a firearm;
*** The U.N.’s so-called “Small Arms Treaty,” which would confiscate and destroy ALL “unauthorized” civilian firearms and set the stage for INTERNATIONAL gun confiscation. Recently, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said, “The United States is committed to actively pursuing a strong and robust [small-arms] treaty.” (requires senate ratification, which they have the votes to do!)
*** The free speech killing DISCLOSE ACT designed to silence any political organization which refuses to submit to their unconstitutional regulations and stands up for its members' right to privacy.
I’m not going to sugarcoat this.
Unless you act today, I’m afraid all our hard work over the past two years could go up in smoke.
I don’t know about you, but I can barely stomach that thought.
But I have to face facts.
Dozens of vulnerable Congressmen and Senators who were “riding the fence” on our gun rights -- worried about what could happen in their reelection campaigns if they voted for more gun control -- no longer have that worry.
Many who were defeated want REVENGE.
Others who have skated through by the skin of their teeth are now emboldened.
And gun-grabbers think you and I won’t be paying attention.
They think we’ve already declared “mission accomplished.”
They think we’ll be too engrossed in preparing for the upcoming holidays to stomach a big legislative fight.
Our one chance is to prove them wrong.
And the key to winning will be the U.S. Senate.
The good news is, after watching many of their anti-gun colleagues go down in flames on Election Day, U.S. Senators who are up in 2012 are already thinking about their own re-elections.
They’re nervous.
They’re worried they could be next.
That’s why our job is to send this message that any U.S. Senator who decides to vote against our gun rights better start looking for another job.
But time is not on our side.
You and I may only have days to mobilize Second Amendment supporters.
That means this fight won’t be cheap -- so I’m counting on your immediate support.
As it stands today, the National Association for Gun Rights does not have the money it will take to defeat the gun-grabbers in the “lame duck” session.
Like you, I was gratified that November 2 was an Election Day to remember. And NAGR did everything it could to make sure anti-gun legislators couldn’t lie and hide their voting records.
Thanks to those efforts, you and I are sending a message that supporting assaults on our Second Amendment rights is political suicide.
But our fight is NOT over.
So I’m counting on your support once again.
Starting today, the National Association for Gun Rights is launching a nationwide phone, mail and e-mail program to contact Second Amendment supporters from all over the country.
That’s where your signed petition to your U.S. Senators --DEMANDING they lay off your gun rights during the “lame duck” session -- comes in.
My goal is to make a preemptive strike to make sure no U.S. Senator believes the pro-gun grassroots will be caught napping.
Of course, going up against the full force of the gun-grabbers and the deep pockets of anti-gun zealots like BILLIONAIRE Mayor Michael Bloomberg, I don’t begin to believe just a national phone and e-mail program will “cut it.”
You and I MUST do more.
But as you know, internet, radio and newspaper ads can be very expensive -- not to mention the high cost of TV.
That’s why I’m counting on your EMERGENCY support.
So, in addition to your signed petition, won’t you please rush me your most generous contribution TODAY?
My friend, you and hundreds of thousands of other National Association for Gun Rights members have defied the odds these past two years.
But all that will mean nothing if the gun-grabbers succeed in their scheme to RAM through their entire gun control agenda during the “lame duck” session of Congress.
They want the last laugh.
They want nothing more than to see you and me DEFEATED.
We can’t let up now.
So please sign your petition and make your most generous contribution TODAY.
Please don’t lay this letter aside. Please act IMMEDIATELY.

Dudley Brown

P.S. The hordes of new pro-gun Congressmen and Senators aren’t set to be sworn in until January 3.
That means President Obama and his anti-gun Congressional allies have until then to RAM the gun-grabbers entire agenda into law.
So please rush me your signed petition to your U.S. Senators along with your most generous EMERGENCY contribution to help me fight the gun-grabbers’ schemes.
