RE: Please REJECT Judge Sotomayor as Supreme Court Nominee

Dear [Sen.] [LAST NAME]:

I'm writing to ask you to please REJECT President Obama's Supreme Court nominee, Judge Sonia Sotomayor, due to the fact that she is a judicial activist who opposes the Constitutional right of an individual to keep and bear arms.

Judge Sotomayor ruled on a Second Circuit Appeals Court panel that the Second Amendment is not a fundamental right and does not apply to the states in the case of Maloney v. Cuomo. This ruling is in direct conflict with a Ninth Circuit Court ruling in the Nordyke v. King case in California, which said that the Second Amendment IS incorporated through the due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.

The Supreme Court may take up this issue of incorporation during its next session beginning in October, because attorneys in the Maloney case plan to appeal in late June.

So, JUDGE Sotomayor ruled against our Second Amendment gun rights in Maloney v. Cuomo. If the Maloney appeal is accepted by the Supreme Court (as is likely)... would JUSTICE Sotomayor recuse herself from deliberations? At the very least, these questions MUST be asked; her nomination must NOT be rushed through, and her qualifications and out-of-the-mainstream ideological beliefs MUST be examined thoroughly. Please, do the RIGHT thing -- REJECT President Obama's Supreme Court nominee, Judge Sonia Sotomayor, due to the fact that she is a judicial activist who opposes the Constitutional right of an individual to keep and bear arms. Thank you.

Sincerely,

[YOUR NAME]
