This is a bit of an aside issue, but I notice you support the NRA. The NRA supported a liberal Democrat in my district for House of Representatives even though the Republican was more favorable to 2nd amendment rights. Based on that, shouldn’t we cease supporting the NRA? (I am an NRA member...and PISSED OFF).

Back on topic. Christie is as conservative as they come.

Anti-gun republicans are fine (though not with me) for BLUE states.

But for a national election? Never.

Since when is it a conservative principle to support 2nd Amendment infringements?


HANNITY: Are there any issues where you are, quote, moderate to left as a Republican?

CHRISTIE: Listen, I favor some of the gun-control measures we have in New Jersey.

HANNITY: Bad idea.

CHRISTIE: Listen, we have a densely-populated state, and there's a big hand gun problem in New Jersey. Now, I don't support all the things that the governor supports by a long stretch. But I think on guns — certain gun control issues, looking at it from a law-enforcement perspective, seeing how many police officers were killed, we have an illegal gun problem in New Jersey.

HANNITY: Should every — should every citizen in the state be allowed to get a licensed weapon if they want one?

CHRISTIE: In New Jersey, that's not going to happen, Sean.

HANNITY: Why?

CHRISTIE: Listen, the Democratic legislature we have, there's no way those type of things — listen, at the end of the day, what I support are common sense laws that will allow people to protect themselves, but I also am very concerned about the safety of our police officers on the streets, very concerned. And I want to make sure that we don't have an abundance of guns out there.
