“I believe the decision by United States Court of Appeals is correct. I understand the challenges that big cities face from gun violence. But banning people from having handguns in their own homes for self defense is excessive and unconstitutional. It is not a reasonable restriction. It clearly undercuts the Second Amendment, which protects the rights of law abiding individuals to keep and bear arms.”
Do my eyes deceive me? Did Rudy just flip-flop/pander?
On March 22 on the Sean Hannity radio show, he again reiterated his agreement with Parker. He stated that it “very well described” his view that the Second Amendment protected an individual right to own a gun, that “unreasonable restrictions” should be invalidated, and that gun regulations should be decided on “a state by state” basis.
Okay then.
This:
He stated that it “very well described” his view that the Second Amendment protected an individual right to own a gun, that “unreasonable restrictions” should be invalidated
Is contradicted by THIS:
and that gun regulations should be decided on “a state by state” basis.
How utterly transparent.
