No Second Amendment rights, even for a Senator. My, how far we've fallen!

the District of Columbia prohibits keeping a fully assembled handgun in the home.

Yet Teddy Kennedy could keep an Oldsmobile.

She decides to act like a Conservative just as she's leaving Washington?

Hmmm...

She said she's complying with the law even though she thinks it's unconstitutional.

Something about that doesn't seem right.

Her office said her handgun is a Smith & Wesson .357 Magnum revolver.

Cool. No girly gun for Senator KB. My wife, who is no shrinking violet on the subject of handguns or much of anything else, doesn't like to fire my S&W .357. Too much "bang" and too much buck for her taste.

The DC gun ban is truly outrageous. Technically, I break the law every time I bring some guns from home (MD) to my office (DC) so that I can go to the range after work. They stay locked in my trunk in the parking garage in the basement of our building during the day, so I am not too worried about them being stolen, but I do worry about being in an accident or otherwise getting stopped while I have them in the car. The DC authorities would like nothing better than to prosecute an out of state type for violating "their" little gun ban.

Hutchison said she didn't know ... that the District of Columbia prohibits keeping a fully assembled handgun in the home.

She didn't? How long has she not been paying attention? The rampant crime should have been her first clue.

Well, now!! How excited am I!?! That's MY gun of choice! Of course, when I can get to the .20 gauge Remington semi-automatic...

She's running for governor, trying to paint herself as tougher than the grandma with lots of names.

I'm open. Anybody but Perry.

She THINKS it's unconstitutional? Let's try it MOST DEFINITELY IS unconstitutional - even though the courts don't have the guts to say it.

But this also shows how many issues don't matter to our "leaders" unless it directly affects them. This is just another proof of that.

"I think every woman in the District of Columbia should have the ability to protect herself in her home," she said.

Why not on the streets?

Even Mrs. Reagan was not allowed to bring her .38 revovler to the white house. She said in an interview once, that she used to keep a .38 in the dresser next to her bed, before she moved to the white house.

What about every man? What about outside the home?

"I think every woman in the District of Columbia should have the ability to protect herself in her home," she said.

And presumably, she should then never leave her home?

What's wrong with having the ability to defend yourself wherEVER you go?

Do the Democrats believe self-defense is a civil right? Their party passed gun control laws in the Jim Crow South in a bid to strengthen "white supremacy." They don't really believe in equality for minorities. Why blacks can't bear and keep arms in the District Of Columbia is a very good question indeed.
