I addressed the issue of the previous Oregon gun ban legislation back in January by sending some 29 emails to Oregon Senate members. I got only 4 responses: Close, Johnson, Roblan and Whitsett.

Some were deleted without opening. I guess they didn't like the subject matter.

Over years of experience these numbers don't surprise me at all.

I sent Governor Kitzhaber a letter reminding him that the people of the state of Oregon voted for the death penalty and he was going against the will of the people by putting his personal moratorium on executions. He didn't respond.

Disappointed? Yep. It doesn't say much for the people who've been elected to run our state.
