Subject: Does Second Amendment prohibit assault weapons bans?

Dear Maine Law President and Dean Saufley,
I am a retired lawyer in Alabama.
In the course of my work I have written to constitutional law professors in Alabama and elsewhere (see my February 14, 2023 email to Maryland constitutional law professors and my February 24, 2023 email to Michigan constitutional law professors posted in the first link above), soliciting them to express themselves about what I was advocating and to lend assistance in messaging lawmakers and citizens about the Second Amendment. 
Does what I am doing appeal to you and other Maine Law professors for doing in Maine?
If it does appeal to you, please let me know.
Thank you very much.
Sincerely,
Rob Shattuck

I am in Alabama.
I received an automated reply to the below email I sent to Angela Ferrell-Zabala in reply to her email to me regarding Lewiston. The automated reply said there were too many emails received for every email to to be responded to and gave yourstate@momschapterleaders.org as a alternative email address to contact. Accordingly, I am contacting you, the Maine chapter leader or leaders, and ask you what do you think about the below email I sent to Leigh I. Saufley, Dean of the University of Maine School of Law?
Thank you.

Subject: Worcester State University shooting: email to Leigh I. Saufley, Dean of the University of Maine School of Law
This email to the Massachusetts Mom Demand Action chapter leaders is prompted by yesterday's Worcester State University shooting in Massachusetts.
In connection with the Lewiston mass shootings, I sent an email to Leigh I. Saufley, Dean of the University of Maine School of Law that I shared with the Maine Mom Demand Action chapter leaders. I believe the Maine leaders are considering said email, at least to the extent of asking me about links that I provided that were not initially working.
My email to Dean Saufley, and my sharing of the same with the Maine Moms Demand Action chapter leaders, are set out at https://al6thcongdist-ihaveuntiljan13.blogspot.com/2023/10/email-to-leigh-i-saufley-dean-of.html.
I hope you will review the foregoing link and tell me whether you think what I am doing and advocating for Maine could be usefully pursued for Massachusetts.
Thank you very much.
Sincerely,
Rob Shattuck

No, that is not actually factual. I was simply looking to understand the context of your email. Is is not something we are interested in taking up at this time. This ist intentionally misleading.

OK, thank you, Kathleen.
By copying this email to Dean Saufley, I will pass on to Dean Saufley that Moms Demand Action Maine is not interested in taking up what I am suggesting to her.

Thank you for your email. We will have to decline your offer of engagement on this. We have our priorities for our state already outlined and are staying focused on those.

Thank you, Lynn and Jen.
I am sure Massachusetts presents a very different environment from Alabama for advancing the cause of gun violence reduction and that environments allows for meaningful priorities.
As best I can tell, the situation in Alabama is hopeless, and this had led me to my "hail Mary" approach set out at https://al6thcongdist-ihaveuntiljan13.blogspot.com/2023/09/draft-statement-to-birmingham-city.html.
Here's hoping the best for both MA and AL.
