I think that was based on perceptions rather than reality. Words rather than actions. It was also before he worked with the NRA anad GOA and was successful in loosening gun restrictions in Massachusetts and getting a bill passed which was endorsed by the NRA. Do you live in the past in your personal life too? Good luck with that.

Since you enjoy ancient history so much, don't forget that Reagan signed the Mulford Act, supported both the Brady Bill and the 1994 Assault Weapons Ban. Yet, he is revered, appropriately, by gun owners around the country. No one is perfect and to demand perfection, or to ignore their entire record, is unrealistic, unreasonable and unfair.

Izzat so?

So now you can go out and by an "assault rifle" in Taxachusetts just like I can in Texas?

I didn't think so.

So, what's worse, babe, living in the past, or living in your own little fantasy world?

Speak for yourself. Reagan was a fine president, but lousy on guns. The 1986 law he signed is the worst ever.
