Bradley-
1. raise FFL fees to drive many dealers out of business

2. limit one handgun purchase per month

3. register ALL firearms on the market today
I wonder how he can track them all down. Door to door?

Gore-
Basically same as Bradley

McCain-
1. Instant background check at pawn shops

2. Tighten current gun control laws
Just from listening to him, I don't trust McCain at ALL.

Bush-
1. Tighten current gun control laws

2. Tighten importation of hi-cap. mags.

By practice it is meant the participation and acceptance of the Four Noble Truths: suffering, adapting, non-attachment, and practicing the Dharma. First comes suffering. When followers of the Way suffer, they should recall that in the countless previous incarnations they have been deterred from the path, sometimes becoming trivial and angry even without cause. The suffering in this life is a punishment, but also an opportunity to exercise what I have learned from past lives. Men and gods are equally unable to see where a seed may bear fruit. I accept this suffering as a challenge and with an open heart. In recognizing suffering, you enter onto the path to the Way.

Svt,

McCain has a 17 or 18 year record of voting correctly on gun issues, with the exception of wanting to include gun shows in background checks, also supported by Bush.

Do you not trust him because of your gut, or do you know something?

Is it because some liberals like him?

Is it because the Republican establishment isn't supporting him?

Is it because he supported the recognition of Vietnam?

I see you're a veteran, does that have anything to do with it?

Please, help me out here.

Roon

Joseph,
Mainly it's because of my gut feelings. I don't care for the way he rationalize gun control as in no way of infrindging upon the 2nd Amend. Listening to him say that on NBC made my spind crawl.
Neither candidates are ideal pro-gunners. Either way, we all need to come together and support one candidate. Most of all, we all need to VOTE stead of just gripe about how terrible we have it with gun related issues.

To add to the list of McCain negatives, hw also questioned anybody's "need" for "weapons of war". That mean's he has a problem with my shiny new M-1 from 1942 and I would have a hard time voting for him.

Keyes is whupping up on both of them on vote.com. Frankly, he is the only one I'll vote for. Do the people who vote there know something we don't? He is the only one who truly supports the 2nd as well as the rest of the constitution.
