Gun Loving Democrats

So.....

While I consider myself a hobbiest and sometimes hunter,
I do like my firearms. I like to target practice once a week.

While not my "line in the sand" issue, it is of relevance and of much importance to me
and my compatriots- most of whom are of a left leaning nature.

How many other 2nd ammendment Dems we have around these parts?

What would make me a "2nd Amendment Dem"? Supporting no gun control laws? Supporting some gun control laws? I doubt you'll find very many Dems (or Reps) who support the banning of guns.

There are some people that vote solely based on 2nd amendment grades by the NRA which is a single issue organization. They supported Harry Reid in his Senate race because he got a 60million dollar pork job for a gun range in Clark county. They will support a Dem if they have a good record on gun rights and the Republican is unknown or fails to answer their questionnaire.

It is a bit of a misstatement of facts to say that gun owners (or NRA members) are against ALL gun laws. It was the NRA who supported the early gun laws and even wrote some of them. If you want to be honest then you should state that the NRA and most gun owners do not want any of the rights of legal, honest, law abiding citizens to be abridged by government. Want to ban assault STYLE weapons? Not what we want. What do ban high capacity magazines? Not what we want. What to ban all semi automatic weapons? Not what we want. Want to keep CRIMINALS for obtaining guns? Now we can talk if you define what a criminal is precisely. What to keep the mentally ill from having access to guns? We can talk about that if you define what you mean by mentally ill (too much of a sliding scale for me) and by not infringing on the rights of their friends and family.

John Kasich likes to pride himself on being pro-Second Amendment to appeal to his voter base — but that doesn’t seem to be the case after seeing this.

Had the Republicans offered a better option than McCain-Palin in 2008 my voting record for President might still be straight Republican.

Yeah, I'd have to say that the biggest issue facing the world right now is putting more guns in the hands of idiot hillbilliy retards like SLOBBRIN.

...who won't even vote, btw.

I wish I could wave a magic gun and make all guns disappear.
We have drones now, we don't even need them. That Seal Team 6 could of just bashed Osama's skull in with a night stick instead of a gun.
That is just my two cents.
But some people love their guns. Maybe it's just a fascination with the engineering, or the weight of them in your hand. Some people love them.
And I admit, if we get overrun by deer or black bears, guns would be good.
And I'm a liberal, though not always a democrat. I just want things to be better.
