Thanks for the gay-rights clarification. In addition to the gun issue. I think it is important to remember that back "when the west was won" an overwhelming number of blossoming towns/cities prohibited guns within their town limits. You had to check them at the gate, so-to-speak. I don't like the concept, but its not new with Gulliani.
On the other hand; he's pro-choice. I have issues with that.
The problem is that Rudy won't say anything on issues until after the November election. So all we can go on is what he felt when he was mayor of NYC. He said recently that 9/11 changed him and I'm sure it did. But how much I don't know.
