Finally got a reply. I originally wrote Castle back on March 31, here it is August 15. Mr. Castle writes, in part,
"I support the right of an individual to keep and bear arms as guaranteed under the Second Amendment to the Constitution. However, I believe that with this right comes a responsibility to keep guns out of the hands of terrorists, criminals, children, and the mentally ill. O am not aware that this legislation is currently under review in the United States House of Representatives, but please be assured that I will keep your views in mind should I have the opportunity to vote on H/R/ 197 in the 111th Congress."
"I will keep your views in mind" this from the guy who co-sponsored the supposed Gun Show loop hole bill.
Although I appreciate the letter (not an e-mail), I know a kiss-off when I see one.
