TSA Asked to Ban Guns in Airports! (fwd)
Subject: VA-ALERT: VCDL ACTION ITEM - TSA Asked to Ban Guns in Airports! (fwd)
The Atlanta airport administration has decided to spit on a new
Georgia state law and continue a ban on guns in the public,
non-sterile areas of its airport.
How does this effect Virginia gun owners?
Because the airport is asking the TSA to setup a nationwide
regulation banning guns on airport property, including the
public, non-sterile areas!!!
No more leaving a gun in your car while you catch a flight. No
more carrying a gun in parking lots or on public sidewalks at
airports. No more having a gun in your car as you drive to the
airport to pick someone up or drop them off.
We must contact the TSA and the President and Vice President and
ask them to keep the U.S. Government from implementing such a
ban!

SUBJECT: Leave state law alone on lawful gun carry in airports!
Dear President Bush, Vice President Cheney, and TSA Administrator
Hawley:
I am concerned that big city officials from Atlanta and elements
of the anti-gun movement are moving to misuse federal power to
accomplish what they cannot do in state capitols - i.e.,
criminalize gun carry in the public and non-sterile areas of
airports.
The vast majority of state legislatures support the right to
carry handguns in public, including the non-sterile areas of
airports. Any effort to reverse these state law decisions by way
of the federal bureaucracy insults federalism and the right to
bear arms.
According to the Supreme Court in the Heller decision the right
to keep and bear arms is an individual right and, "t the time
of the founding, as now, to 'bear' meant to "carry.”
Please ensure the TSA stays out of gun ban politics in Atlanta
and across the Unites States!
Sincerely,
YOUR NAME YOUR ADDRESS
