Moderator could this be pinned to the top for a week? We need to act now to stop this! From: alert@tsra.com [mailto:alert@tsra.com] Sent: Thursday, July 05, 2007 9:35 PM To: Hepler Thaine E Subject: Proposed "Safety" Regulations Would Dry Up Ammunition Sales Texas State Rifle Association Political Action Committee TSRA members, family and friends: http://www.nraila.org/Legislation/Federal/Read.aspx?id=3145 The link above goes to an NRA-ILA page that explains a proposed rule change, rules created by Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). The proposed rule indiscriminately treats ammunition, powder and primers as "explosives." Among many other provisions, the proposed rule would: 1. Prohibit possession of firearms in commercial "facilities containing explosives"~ an obvious problem for your local gun store! 2. Require evacuation of all "facilities containing explosives" ~~even your local Wal-Mart~~during any electrical storm! 3. Prohibit smoking within 50 feet of "facilities containing explosives." The public comment period ends July 12. The time to file your own comment, or learn more about the OSHA proposal is NOW! Use the link above to the NRA-ILA page and read more about the problem and find a draft letter opposing the OSHA rule on "explosives".

A very great number of us have been aware of this proposal for two weeks and passing info and raising hell. Where you been? Written OSHA and your congress critters yet? "Make yourselves sheep and the wolves will eat you" G. ned ludd | |||

Not asleep. However, you are correct, this has been addressed. However there are only 17 sets of coments on the proposed regulations. I was just made aware of it by the TSSRA alert. Yes, I have written both. Just trying to get the word out by every means I can. Thaine "Begging hands and bleeding hearts will always cry out for more..."

Could they make it any more difficult to comment on the proposed rules? I realize that the Federal Government is the King of all bureaucracy, but their system for comments is ridiculously complex. You have to really want to send one, or else you will easily give up in frustration. Unbelievable. Bullets are pretty worthless. All they do is hang around waiting to get loaded. | |||

We just need to make it devastating for the bureaucrats that proposed this. As in put their organization on half rations for the next 20 years. | |||
