I have been to the site, and found out much less than I
want to know. All we get is the short history that we
can get from the house site, and a message that
basically says "we know what we are doing, we know what
is good for you, trust us!" which is basically the same
message that our senators and representatives are giving
us. Given the MVPA's past history regarding some
vehicles such as M-151's & HMMWV's I don't trust them
completely to not come up with some sort of compromise
that protects WWII stuff and sells out newer stuff or
protects soft skinned vehicles and sells out armor. If
they want us to trust them, updates and planned courses
of action would be nice. Evidently the people there know
much more than they are posting, surely they can at
least send us updates every once in a while. If not Mr
Holland, somebody there should be keeping us updated,
since its our money they are using.
Before the flames on this post start, I should tell you
that I have renewed my membership that had lapsed, kinda
like the NRA, they may not be the best but they are what
we have.
I have been in touch with my representative, both
Senators, very Second Amendment group I could find, and
encouraged everyone here I know to do the same. What to
do next i don't know, except to keep bugging the
lawmakers.
