I appreciate Senator Ensign's support, but the 2nd Amendment is not one of his hallmark issues. I just visited his website "Issues" page and 2A is not listed on it at all, however, heading the list is Animal Advocacy. His key legislative efforts have been focused on keeping people from owning exotic animals and ending animal fighting by charging individuals who move animals across state lines for the purpose of fighting with a felony. I don't want to sound cold-hearted but animals didn't elect Senator Ensign, the people of Nevada did and they should be his first priority. The animal fighting issue is similar to gun crime, if existing laws were enforced then the problem would be eliminated, since those responsible for this reprehensible practice are often involved in other criminal activity.

I also checked Gun Owners of America's Congressional Voting Record to see where Ensign stood on legislation affecting 2A. On Campaign Finance he voted NAY, on the Federal Election Commission Act of 1971 he voted NAY, BUT on the Anti-Gun Juvenile Crime Bill (authored by Tom Daschle) Ensign voted YEA. Richard, I don't want to burst your bubble but I think NV Repubs need to hold Ensign's feet to the fire.

"I think NV Repubs need to hold Ensign's feet to the fire."

Like I did last night?

As to the animal issue.
John is a veterinarian in real life, and a target for the bunny huggers as a result.

I spend too much time on politics as it is, I pretty much ignore the circus animal/exotic pet thing as much as I can.

There is another meeting tonight in Las Vegas, I hope some people from here made arrangements to attend, because "NV Repubs need to hold Ensign's feet to the fire."

We ALWAYS have to remain vigilant, it is the price of freedom!
