Georgia residents [URGENT]... call your governor in support of this bill...

Even though 70% of GA senators and over 64% of GA representatives voted for HB89, Governor Perdue, a Republican, seems to be waffling on signing the bill. Please read the following and PLEASE take the time to call the governor's office and ask them (politely) to sign HB89, a bill which will give Georgians the additional privileges of conceal carry in these circumstances...

*In a restaurant which serves alcohol when over 50% of its sales are derived from food.
*On public transportation such as buses (Previously a 20 year prison sentence)
*In state parks

Dear GCO Member,

GCO is asking all of you to now pitch in and help.

As you know the Georgia Restaurant Association is very publicly urging Governor Perdue to veto 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 flooded with negative telephone calls stemming from the stream of misinformation being conveyed by the news media.

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.

Then please contact members of your family and friends and ask them to do the same.

Here is Governor Perdue's contact information:
> Be Polite
> Be Precise
> Don't Be Long Winded
> If You Call, Know What You Want To Say Before Dialing (suggest writing it down even)
> Use Multiple Methods Of Contact; Do Not Use The Same Message
> Encourage Other Gun Owners To Contact The Governor, But Remind Them To Be Polite (Make Friends, Don't Burn A Bridge)
