Sir you must have forgotten that you are an AMERICAN.  You may have a different skin color but you are an American.  Come to your senses and stop pushing this H.R. 45 Bill.  Your position in public service just might be ending without your knowledge.  I feel for the child that got killed however, alot of people get kill daily and in all kinds of situations not just guns.  Taking away our guns will just give the crooks more control and leverage.  Oh I forgot you got yours and the hell with the rest of us.  You don't live in the bad parts of town, you can't see the dirt from your luxurious home can you.  Get out of public service you haven't the first clue on how to serve the people who need a good Senator.

Rep. Bobby Rush.

May I make you aware of Arizona HCR 2034?   I HIGHLY suggest you and the other socialists take a close look at it.  You might want to think twice about trying to pass this bill.

This man is a criminal and a traitor! He needs to be impeached and disbarred from ever being able to hold any public office again! He should also be thron into a dark deep hole and left to his own thoughts. We really would be better off without such a &quot;PIG&quot; in public office!    </content>

In the 2000 Democratic primary for the U.S. House of Representatives (IL-01), Rush defeated a challenge from then-state senator Barack Obama. During the primary, Rush said: &quot;Barack Obama went to Harvard and became an educated fool. Barack is a person who read about the civil-rights protests and thinks he knows all about it.&quot; 

This was copied from the Wikipedia entry on Mr Bobby Rush and pasted here. What a loyal Democrat! I hope in the end he will be honest enough to &quot;...protect and defend the [whole] Constitution of the United States of America.&quot; like he swore that he would. 
Oh, we will defend our homes and families from the thugs and gangs his bill will empower. It might be only with a Sling shot or a spear. but we WILL defend our homes.     </content>

Bobby Rush, do you really think this bill would stop a gang shooting?  Be honest with yourself, of course it wouldn't, so who put you up to this?  Have some respect for yourself, take a step back and remove the liberal zombie glasses!    </content>

I am admittedly not a constituent of your district, however I felt it necessary to write to you and express my disagreement with your &#8220;Blair Holt&#8221; bill you are proposing to congress.  Mr. Rush, whether you are a citizen who lives in the city or a rancher who lives in wide open West Texas, a person has the right under our constitution to possess a firearm to protect him and his family.

This bill criminalizes the ownership of firearms without a license.  

Mr. Rush, do you really believe that the criminals will give up their guns?  

A letter from a constitutionally minded individual in Texas will probably not change you mind on the matter, but I felt it my duty to let you know that I disagree with your views and ask you to please review you opinion on this matter.

Thank you for your time.

Bobby Rush is a racist, criminal and just product of the MACHINE. Keep your dog dung politics in your state. As a matter of fact, since you and Mayor Daley dont like following the constitution, lets pull all federal aid from Illinois.     </content>

H.R. 45 is only targeted at Law Abiding Citizens.  It is designed to be a pain in the ass for law abiding gun owners.  They keep putting more rules that affect the ones who are obeying the law.  Why don't they put more time and energy into keeping criminals in jail/prison.  Criminals don't follow the LAW.  That's why we call them CRIMINALS!  They don't get their guns from the same gun store's that the law abiding citizens get theirs.  They aquire their guns in the same fashion that drug users aquire their drugs.  So every new law that is, in theory, designed to keep &quot;America&quot; safe, is really harming America by disarming the law abiding citizen.    </content>

 Funny thing is the people who are already breaking the law could care less about any new laws you come up with.  H.R. 45 is a not so funny joke and Mr. Rush should be drummed out of office as the traitor to this country that he is. The 2nd amendment wasn't put there for politicans to get rid of it was put there to protect us from fools that would be dictators! Ever notice they never go after the criminal, it's always the law abiding citizen they chase down and cause problems for.

Obviously this is a true politican!  Who else would use the tragic death of an innocent child to submit legislation to disarm America.  Have any of you no shame?  How can you sleep at night?  Maybe God will have mercy on you and your soul because I and most of America won't.    </content>

HR 45 is the most ignorant and selfish piece of legislation ever proposed by this country. The congressman sponsering this bill should step down or be impeached. Go back under the rock from which you came.Where did he go to school ,Mecca? The bill number is higher than his I.Q. Is he even American?(and convicted of the very crime that responsible gun owners would never let happen to them)What a hypocritic fool!    </content>

This bill is a down right waste of energy for anyone to author.  Leave it up to this BOOB, who calls himself a representative, to try and sneak something through such as this garbage.  Lets unarm the law abiding citizens of America, making them powerless to the criminals who steal, rape, murder, amongst other things in order to make money to buy drugs with.  You know the productive people of society that I am speaking about. Typical namby pamby democrap BS!!Worthless pieces of dog crap. Hey BOOB,can I get a copy of this bill,I am low on toilet paper?  You want my guns BOOBY Rush, come on over and try and take them from me!! Im waiting!    </content>

I can't believe what I'm reading! This criminal has actually been elected to a public offic? now he actually has the nerve to put forth a bill to eliminate the 2nd amendment? Maybe his has a more sinister plan....  If he eliminates the ability for the people to defend themselves against tyranny he can step up and become a persecutor that he has always wanted to be! With no way of defending ourselves from someone like him, he could walk into our homes and take anything and everything he wanted! Wake up America! we need to take back control of our lands! We can't afford to allow men like this to be in control over us! The state of America has truly become a sad one!!    </content>
