Challenger targets Tancredo over gun control
By Mike Soraghan Denver Post Staff Writer
April 5 - Conservative Republican U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo, the congressman from Columbine, is supporting the statewide gun-control initiative to close the "gun-show loophole." "I support anything that is designed to keep guns out of the hands of people who shouldn't have them, and this fits," Tancredo said. "This is a reasonable gun-control provision." That's consistent with Tancredo's move toward the middle on guns since the Columbine High School massacre last April.
Stacking the pro and con columns up, Tancredo is still a better option to me, especially if his views on gun control can be turned.
