How on earth do you figure Thompson is “neutral” on the 2nd amendment? Or in other words what makes Hunter stronger on the 2nd then Thompson? (actually the strongest candidate on the 2nd would be Ron Paul noting that you didn’t not specify sane cadidates)

According to this data.

Hunter’s record looks like it has more OOMPH! behind it. Removing liability to gun manufacturers, lessening waiting period.

Thompson voting around the issue of Gun-Shows.

Anyone have anymore data?
