Subject:
Guns on Amtrack as baggage

To:
Rep. Glenn Nye

October 21, 2009

As a lawfully armed Citizen in the State of Virginia and a resident of your district, I would like to ask you to support legislation to allow the carrying of lawfully owned firearms on Amtrack cars. It is the right of every man to be armed and the instrument is not the criminal actor in any crime; The criminal man is. Let's stop being children and pretending that any weapon poses a threat apart from the nuts who wield it.

Let's be men and take the responsiblity for crime and place it where it truly rests...on the shoulders of the criminals. My guns have never hurt anyone, because I and 95% of my fellow Americans are not criminals. Do not let the actions of the miscreants hinder my freedom. To do so is absurd.
