Reading up on the original Wolfenstein 3D (Yes, the one from 1993. I found out today that RTCW 2 will be out next year too!!!), I came across this letter. Weird to be reading about a game to stumble across this, but she does make a point

-S

Honorable Senators Clinton and Schumer,
Washington, DC 20510

I am a registered Democrat, grandmother, a Family Health Nurse Practitioner of many years, and a life-long resident of New York State.

I have a pistol license in Suffolk County, New York. I strictly adhere to all the laws that are required with this privilege.

I need you to realize, as my representatives, the importance of my Constitutionally guaranteed right to own firearms.

In a post 9-11 world, I realized the community at large must be prepared to locally defend their fellow countrymen. Many of my fellow Democrats have realized this as well.

On a national scale, we depend upon the Armed Forces. Locally, we depend upon the municipal police departments.

Neither can be activated on a moment's notice.

Years ago in nursing school, and again today in the community health milieu, the phrase "An Ounce of Prevention is Worth a Pound of Cure" rings true; never more so than now.

A well-prepared citizenry, capable of prudent and timely response, is imperative for the protection of all Americans.

Millions of Americans have this right and privilege. I noticed a strong representation of War Veterans attending Second Amendment conferences.

They above all understand the importance of preparation and deterrence. We need to maintain our Constitutionally-guaranteed ability to protect America and Americans. Terrorism is a fact of life in a shrinking world.

My life has been dedicated to saving the lives of others. That hasn't changed.

What has changed is my perspective on how to accomplish that while in the face of an imminent, terrorist threat.

Thank you. I respectfully hope you will consider this opinion with due seriousness and vote accordingly to protect your constituents' lives and freedom.

Sincerely,

Jeanne R., RN, MS, FNP-BC
Westhampton Beach, New York
