Well...
They might not have any anti-gun stuff in the platform, or give it much airtime.... Unless you ask individually any of the intolerant bigoted convention goers... Morons.
Cuz gun owners are BAD. Good thing none of them vote...
ReplyDeleteBased on how the base clearly feels, do you think if they won they'd nominate anti Second Amendment judges. Or if they won big they try to just pass anti-2A as a matter of course?
ReplyDeleteI don't like Romney, but are the chances HE'D do such a thing greater or lesser than the folks leading THESE people?
NJT:
ReplyDeleteThey've calling for "common-sense" gun control like an assault weapons ban and closing the gun show "loophole" in their platform:
Firearms. We recognize that the individual right to bear arms is an important part of the American tradition, and we will preserve Americans' Second Amendment right to own and use firearms. We believe that the right to own firearms is subject to reasonable regulation. We understand the terrible consequences of gun violence; it serves as a reminder that life is fragile, and our time here is limited and precious. We believe in an honest, open national conversation about firearms. We can focus on effective enforcement of existing laws, especially strengthening our background check system, and we can work together to enact commonsense improvements—like reinstating the assault weapons ban and closing the gun show loophole—so that guns do not fall into the hands of those irresponsible, law-breaking few.
Feh.
Huh. That part of the platform sure isn't getting lotta ink for some reason.
ReplyDeleteNot a Daily Show fan, but this was pretty on-target.
