I'm trying to determine which Republican candidate has a supportable position and history supporting my 2nd amendment rights. Here is what I have learned:
1. Mitt Romney is a "no go" wrt supporting gun owners, based on his supporting the "assault rifle ban". I understand that he was presiding in the center of Libtardia, the People's Republic of Mass, but that doesn't excuse his bad judgement. Since he said he would sign a national ban as president if congress put the bill on his desk, I'd love to ask him: "what about the millions of legal, law-abiding citizens across the free states that use ARs? Are you disagreeing with all of these folks, and their state legislatures, which allow ARs, do you really know better what's best for us? And should all those owners be required to turn in their ARs for destruction?" Talk about inciting civil unrest, his legacy would assured.
2. Rick Santorum supported the anti 2nd amendment A. Spector, over the pro 2nd amendment P. Toomey, which ultimately led to the support of the Lautenberg Gun Ban, with its overreaching misdemeanor domestic violence conviction gun ban.
Are there any candidates worthy of our support, based on their proven support of 2nd amendment issues? In the end, it will be ABO, and I will vote for whomever is the Republican candidate (voting 3rd party is like voting for BHO, and would be fatal mistake for this nation), but I'd prefer not to need a clothespin when I pull the lever.
