Are you deliberately being a dumb@$$ -- or is that your natural state?
His National Guard intro had nothing to do with his RKBA answer; it merely introduced him as pro-military.
The LEO occupation requires carrying - and some LEOs prefer to have a monopoly on carrying. Scott Brown, as an individual citizen, personally chose to carry in MA -- as did I.
Personal discussions with Scott (and his in-State voting) convinced me that he actively supported RKBA in MA..
However, his current position places his allegiance to his Commonwealth's laws above the national rights of individuals. I know he is wrong.
No State (or more local) law should trump the individual right guaranteed by the Second Amendment. Because RKBA is protected by the National Constitution, no lesser laws should infringe upon it, and all should honor it equally.
To me, Scott is saying, "I have my MA LTC; the rest of you from other States can take a hike."
Viewed from within MA, that is a pro-gun position. Viewed from other States, it is anti-2A -- and is supportive of State infringement of RKBA. MA is discriminatory: it is "may issue". Individual town police chiefs call the shots -- and many chiefs simply refuse to issue LTCs...
As I said, Brown has fought for 2A rights of MA residents, but he now wants to put MA TOWN POLICE CHIEFS above the US Constitution -- and that is where we part ways.
As illustrated in my graphic, he looked good when compared to "my" district's US Senator, Chappaquiddick Teddy, and US Representative, Bahney Fwank...
Obviously, I am happy to be out of the "Masshole", and am very glad to be safely back home in "God's Country"!!!

Viewed through the lens of the US Constitution, Scott has shown himself to be far too liberal for me to support for national office. I no longer can vote on him re State office... And, as I clearly said: I no longer support Scott Brown for any national office
GFY. If you think that anyone is going to read past that you're an idiot as well as an ahole.
