dirt,

40 states mow have conceal & carry laws. The Supreme Court has not taken any case which will broadly limit or eliminate gun ownership in it's history. The ruling have been narrow or specific to a particular case. Because of that, the states have taken it upon themselves to define gun laws.
Only in states with a preponderance of metrosexual men who allow their soccer-mom wives to boss them into submission - Calif, N.Y., various N.E. states (and you know who you are), will C & C laws have little chance.

Abortion is in the purview of the Supreme Court, and G.W. will probably get one more appointment before he 's gone. So by 2008, that'll be squarely on the Courts and the conscious of the female who decides to end a pregnancy.

I've enjoyed your posts over the years and thought of you as one of the pillars of common sense at FR. Most of the time you are, but when it comes to Rudy - yikes.

I'm sorry, but IMO Rudy has the wrong views on gun rights for this day and age - and it is critical for a president to support such. He also needs to be anti-abort instead of pro-choice. IMO he will never win the nomination for the reasons stated, among others. If that disappoints you regarding my views, I can't help that.

So we should nominate someone from metrosexual NY City who buys into gun control concepts? Don't underestimate the ability of the feds to butt into this issue.
