He doesn’t (shouldn’t) need our letters.
This is all one great big theatre performance being put on for the masses. The outcome has already been decided by the elected crooks.
We as Americans have the right to bear arms. PERIOD.
I am done playing their games. Calling, faxing, emailing, letter writing. They don’t care what we think. When the majority of Americans accept the fact that these bamboozlers in DC are completely full of manure, we can then take back our nation.
I will not jump just because they tell me too. Think about it. Why do we need to write these letters when we already have the right to bear arms? Is it to make us believe we the people still have the power to govern ourselves?
This is all one great big sham.
All they need is to read the clearly written words in the US Constitution.
Period.
Exactly!
Letters? He wants letters?
Fine, how about these letters...

Why can’t he read the same stuff the rest of us do? And why can’t he do the same math on firearms sales? FReepers assemble a wealth of information on this topic, gleaned from news sources around the world and from many perceptive, wise, and intelligent citizens of America.
If you can’t learn anything from all this, Senator Cruz, perhaps you should step aside and make room for someone who can.
From the old story, “... A Free Republic is when you are NOT ALLOWED TO VOTE ON WHAT’S FOR DINNER and the sheep are armed.”
I so far love Ted Cruz, and have supported him. He is a good guy. But I agree with your sentiment that he does not and should not need our letters. He should stand on and educate about PRINCIPLE and not muddy himself in their petty “Jerry Springer Theater” games.
If we play their game we have already lost. We do not need “data” to retain our unalienable right to effective self defense against bad guys and despotic governments.
We should never play their game. “Progressives” always smugly want “data” to make decisions by — especially decisions that they don’t have the right to make. When they ask for hearing and “data” they already have used our money to collect lies, damn lies, and statistics that always distort reality, and they are ready to ramrod the low information group around them with their little Dephi technique games and control of the media.
There are lots of evil schemes that might seem pragmatic supported by lies, damn lies, and statistics.
The point is not to be drawn into an argument that involves PRAGMATICS when PRINCIPLE has already declared that an argument is not allowed.
Use your bully pulpit to teach the PRINCIPLE. Don’t play in the mud with those scum.
