    Default Translate this email from Micheal Bennett for me...

    Dear David:
    Thank you for contacting me regarding the Hearing Protection Act of 2017 (S. 59). I appreciate hearing from you.
    In Colorado, we support the Second Amendment right to bear arms and people's ability to hunt and to protect their families and homes. This debate should not be about challenging the rights of responsible gun owners -- rather, it is about keeping the wrong weapons out of the hands of the wrong people.
    S. 59 would reform the process for purchasing silencers. The bill has been referred to the Senate Finance Committee. Should this legislation come to the Senate floor for a vote, I will keep your thoughts in mind.
    I value the input of fellow Coloradans in considering the wide variety of important issues and legislative initiatives that come before the Senate. I hope you will continue to inform me of your thoughts and concerns.
    For more information about my priorities as a U.S. Senator, I invite you to visit my website at http://bennet.senate.gov/. Again, thank you for contacting me.

    Sincerely,

    Michael F. Bennet
    United States Senator
    To reply to this message with a message to Senator Bennet or the office, please use the form at http://bennet.senate.gov/contact. Thank you.

    I would have more respect for him if he would have just told you he will not support the bill...

    The term, "wrong weapons," is only used by gun-control proponents.

    Translation: "Why are you pestering me with this? You know I'm going to vote the party line against it so why did you put me in the position where I had to politely lie to you? Sheesh."
    Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".

    It did seem like he was all for it in theory but not so much in practice.

    Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
    ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?

    The part where he said "respect the 2nd...blahblahblah" basically translates as "I'll do what the overlords say, while blowing sunshine up your ass to make you think I'm listening to you."

    Of course. He didn't even bother to write that response.

    My translation: "My staffer doesn't even understand the act/issue so he pulled policy statement from other gun-thingy-ish topics that make zero sense with regards to the HPA."

    Your reply to that

    Fuck You Strong Letter to Follow.

    Since he doesn't read any Pro gun correspondence, Why not. He's not now or ever been a pro vote.
