Chapter 180 "Boston Tea Party 2008"
July 23, 2008 will mark the ten year anniversary of the signing of the 1998 Gun Control Act by Acting Governor Paul Cellucci. In last month’s edition of The OutdoorMessage™, we outlined what has become known as the “Decade of Disaster” that was created by the passage of Chapter 180 of the Acts of 1998. It is no secret that these ill-conceived laws have done nothing to reduce crime or violence, instead the opposite is true. The erosion of our rights as citizens and the ever increasing violence on our streets is proof positive that change is needed. To mark the ten year anniversary, GOAL is urging our members to send the message to our elected officials that we are still waiting for meaningful reform if not outright repeal of Chapter 180.
We are asking our members to take a symbolic step by sending the note below to your local legislators, along with a Tea Bag. July 23, 2008 will be known as the Chapter 180 “Boston Tea Party 2008”. Our forefathers dumped tea into Boston Harbor to protest unfair taxes. So too will you be protesting the unfair treatment we all receive as lawful gun owners.
GOAL recommends that our members plan accordingly so letters arrive at the State House on July 23, 2008. As a reminder, your letter may take some additional postage and time to get to its destination. On July 23, 2008 let’s all send the message that these laws need to dumped!

Boston Tea Party 2008
Dear Legislator,
In 1773 a group of our forefathers - tired of unfair laws and
taxes - dumped a shipload of tea into Boston harbor in
what is now known as the Boston Tea Party. Today I, a
lawful citizen of the Commonwealth, am sending you this
tea bag as a symbol of my protest against the taxation of
my civil rights and the unfair laws that have resulted in the
persecution of lawful gun owners. July 23, 2008 is the ten
year anniversary of the passage of the “Worst in the
Nation” gun laws, during which lawful citizens have been
stripped of their civil rights and crime has risen out of
control creating a “Decade of Disaster”. I ask you to do
whatever is necessary to reform the state’s gun laws with
respect to the Constitutional Right to Keep and Bear Arms.
Signed, a lawful citizen:____________________________
