On Tuesday, November
8, San Francisco voters will go to the polls to vote on Proposition
H--a citywide gun ban. If Proposition H passes, it will become
the most restrictive gun control law in the nation; even more
restrictive than the egregious Washington, D.C., gun ban that NRA-ILA
is currently working to overturn in Congress! The ordinance would
ban residents from possessing any handgun and they would be forced to
turn over their handguns within 90 days. The sale, manufacture, and
transfer of any firearm or ammunition to anyone, including a family
member, would be prohibited!
The "San Francisco Police Officers Association" (POA), and the San
Francisco Chronicle, San Francisco Examiner, and Sf-frontlines
newspapers have all come out in opposition of this egregious ban,
noting that it will do nothing to reduce crime, and will divert law
enforcement officers from their job of apprehending violent criminals
to enforcing this "feel-good" law.
To educate and mobilize Bay Area pro-gun supporters, NRA-ILA created a
website dedicated exclusively to exposing the truth about Proposition
H. The website--
www.StopSanFranban.com
--is designed to provide you with one-stop-shopping for the information
and tools you will need to ensure Proposition H is defeated on November
8.
Among the many features at
www.StopSanFranban.com
are: information on the proposed ban; sample letters and tips for
identifying and writing letters to the editor of area newspapers;
information on the benefits of firearm ownership for self-defense and
the ineffectiveness of gun bans in reducing crime; voter registration
links; e-mail sign-up; and more.
Please be sure to visit
www.StopSanFranban.com
and then forward this link to your family, friends, and fellow firearm
owners, both inside and outside of San Francisco, to ensure the
collective voices of America's gun owners are heard loudly and clearly
on, November 8! Those of you who don't live directly in San
Francisco, but reside nearby, should visit the site immediately for
updates on what you can do locally to ensure this deplorable
proposition is defeated.
