Moreover, the likelihood of an AQ attack in such a way that I, with my shotgun, can affect the outcome is just silly. The next attack won't leave any room for guns. It will be big.
2) I disagree. I listened to the speeches at C-PAC and wasn't at all impressed with Romney's ability to fight the WoT. McCain is too crazy---truly a Dr. Strangelove. Hunter and Brownback don't stand a chance in Hades, so there is really no sense talking about them. So it's really Rudy, Romney, or if they choose to run, Fred or Newt. But they haven't yet.
You mean like a Mall shooting or a "sudden jihad syndrome" at a Jewish community center?
Think before you speak and make an idiot of yourself.
Considering he may indeed have a dem congress to deal with, I’d be very worried about Rudy grabbing your guns. And just on principle, why support a guy with such a flair for the anti-constitutional?
Rudy ain’t going to get the nomination. And your support for him, although tacit, is disturbing. It would be the equivalent if Lieberman jumped to the GOP and ran. A believer in the necessity of the WOT, but a liberal pimp in just about every other measure. It makes no sense for ANY conservative to support Rudy. He is running on name ID now, and will soon be running on fumes.
There is absolutely nothing in Rudy’s past, despite rhetoric, that says he would make a better CIC than the others, including Romney.
And only one guy, Hunter, is guaranteed to make a great CIC. Don’t count him out just yet.

You are far more likely to face a criminal attack than a terrorist attack. On 9/11, 3000 people died in a nation of nearly 300,000,000; a tragedy to be sure, but a tiny fraction of our population. Far more people were affected by ordinary street crime that year, and every year since, than were affected by terrorism. Criminals, not terrorists, are the greater threat to your life.
Giuliani has proven track record of opposing gun rights. His record on combating terrorism is nothing more than vapor-ware. In light of that fact, odds are that his record on guns will get you killed long before his record on terrorism will save you.
