publicly urging Governor Perdue to <B>veto</B> HB 89. MARTA is doing
the same thing (it is nice to know your tax dollars are being used against
your civil rights, isn't it?). The Georgia Restaurant Association has over
3,000 members, most of whom do not seem to know it is already legal to carry a
firearm in their establishments (since most of them do not serve alcohol).
In addition, the Governor is being <B>flooded</B> with negative telephone calls
stemming from the stream of misinformation being conveyed by the news
media.</FONT></FONT></DIV>
<P><B>Please sit down and write Governor Perdue using your personal stationary
or paper. Then, grab the telephone and call him. When you are
finished, please take the time to send an email. Let him know you support
HB 89 and you would appreciate him signing it into law.</B></P>
<P>Then please contact members of your family and friends and ask them to do the
same.</P>
<P>Here is Governor Perdue's contact information:<BR>> Be Polite <BR>> Be
Precise <BR>> Don't Be Long Winded <BR>> If You Call, Know What You Want
To Say Before Dialing (suggest writing it down even) <BR>> Use Multiple
Methods Of Contact; Do Not Use The Same Message <BR>> Encourage Other Gun
Owners To Contact The Governor, But Remind Them To Be Polite (Make Friends,
Don't Burn A Bridge)</P>

<P>The amendments stand a good chance of passing. <BR><BR>When asked whether
he supported the idea of allowing guns in restaurants and on public
transportation, <B>Lt. Gov. Casey Cagle</B> said he did not see a problem.
<BR><BR>"We are talking about individuals who have gone through a background
check and are certified to carry a weapon. It's not the wild, wild West."
<BR><BR><B>[Rep. Tim] Bearden</B> said 43 other states allow guns on public
transportation. Thirty-seven states allow permit holders to carry weapons into
restaurants. <BR><BR>"It's not like we're on the cutting edge here," he
said.</P></BLOCKQUOTE>
