McCain keeps mentioning hunting, hunting....as if the Second Amendment has a damn thing to do with hunting!
Senator, the founding fathers intended for the citizens of the country to have firearms so that they, the citizens, would have a means to overthrow a tyrannical government if such as government should every come into being. Sheesh!
Correct.
Duh!
The right to bear arms in the Constitution's second amendment is considered sacred by many U.S. gun owners.
This quote tells you EXACTLY where the author stands on the issue. But there's no bias in the MSM, honest.
But the Arizona senator accused the two Democrats of giving only "theoretical" support to the second amendment.
"They claim to support hunters and gun owners. But just because they don't talk about gun control doesn't mean they won't support gun control," McCain told a convention of the National Rifle Association.
"If either Senator Clinton or Senator Obama is elected president, the rights of law-abiding gun owners will be at risk. They have both voted as senators to ban guns or ban ammunition or to allow gun makers to be sued out of existence," he said.
Again, Duh!
"I'm very well versed in the use of firearms. I carried a firearm in combat. I've used them in the past. I'm just not a hunter," said McCain
Same here (no combat experience, of course). I don't care for wild game at all. But, I don't own my guns for hunting.
