Another media mistake is to say he is anti-gun. This is lazy reporting. Basically, Rudy looks at gun control the way Howard Dean did as governor of Vermont. Dr. Dean had an A rating from the NRA as governor, so when the left got mad at him, he argued that Vermont didn't need gun control. Rudy's argument is that local municipalities should decide gun laws and you need more gun control in New York City than in Kansas! It is a conservative position to give power to local governments and out of the hands of the federal government which is what Giuliani is arguing for.

Then why, pray tell, did he attempt to use the courts to impose NYC's gun laws on other States? Using liberal, activist judges to re-write laws and the Constitution? Tsk, tsk... That's not very conservative, now is it.
