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.
That paragraph is an outright LIE!!
Julie-Annie is NOW, TODAY - calling for Federal Licensing of ALL gun owners and mandatory 'fitness testing' which said gun owner needs to pass to get said license and more "Federal Regulations". He NOW, TODAY, equates the Right stated in the Second Amendment to Keep and Bear Arms with that of driving a f**king car!!!
The fact is that Julie-Annie's gun control position is more radical than anything any Democrat running for POTUS has ever uttered. More extreme than Kerry, more extreme than GORE, more extreme than CLINTON!! The bottom line is that his view of guns is NOT that of being under local jurisdiction and control, it's FEDERAL CONTROL he wants. And 'control' like he had in NYC where he stripped law abiding citizens of their guns through more and more regulations (one FReeper in NYC lost all of his due to Rudy).
This gun grabbing mutt is a danger to the Republic and would sign every U.N. Gun gabbing treaty he could get his little perverted hands on.
(Sheesh, talk about "lazy reporting".)
You are correct - that is truly a horrible lie. We now have seen federalism turned on its ear for Rudy - that it is "states rights" to ignore rights enumerated in the Bill of Rights.
That would only be valid if NYC seceded from the Union. Last I checked, it hadn't, so Rudy's (and this person's) logic is absurd.
