Santorum: ‘The Second Amendment Is There To Protect the First Amendment!’ - February 16, 2012 - ....Santorum was then asked if the Second Amendment is only for hunting and sports, to which he responded emphatically, “the Second Amendment is there to protect the First Amendment!”

His own family possesses firearms, he says, both for hunting and handguns for personal protection. He cautioned that if Obama is reelected, the Supreme Court’s Heller Decision, which holds that individuals have a right to possess a firearm for traditionally lawful purposes, such as self-defense within the home, will be in jeopardy.

Then why does he say stupid things?

I am unconvinced by Santorum.

“His own family possesses firearms,”

Like Romney? Or does Rick actually own “one” himself?

Perry not only admits to owning guns, he considers going to the range as a family night out, “like bowling”, he said.
