Is anyone else disgusted at Ron Paul's 2nd amendment description? The most pro-2nd amendment candidate since Thomas Jefferson and this is how they describe his position.


Mike Huckabee
Opposes reauthorization of the assault weapons ban. Opposes mandatory trigger locks for handguns. Opposes waiting periods for gun purchases. Owns a variety of firearms. NRA member. Has a concealed carry permit.


Ron Paul
Opposed 3-day gun show background check requirement in favor of a 24-hour check. Has a B rating from the NRA.

He has a "B" rating from the NRA, man they're stringent about who they hand out the "A" to.

Why doesn't CNN talk about how Ron Paul tried to remove all Federal restrictions on gun ownership?

Nope, they hand out A's to Republican like they're m & ms. The reason Ron got a B is because he wouldn't go for the neo-fascist manufacturer liability limitation bill. He didn't think gun manufacturers should get special treatment for shoddy products. Go figure.

The NRA has been a joke forever.

they gave him an A because he voted against liability immunity for gun manufacturers, because he believes an open and free market should allow civil lawsuits against any entity
