PA Democrats Don’t Support Gun Rights

author Posted by:Sebastian on date Feb 2nd, 2010 | filed Filed under: Gun Rights, Pennsylvania

As mentioned by Bitter yesterday, none of the Democratic candidates for Pennsylvania Governor support our Second Amendment rights. They are all in favor of radical gun control measures, including semi-auto bans, ending statewide preemption and letting local governments infringe on our rights, rationing gun purchases, and, in violation of the Supreme Court’s ruling in Heller, requiring child safety locks. But I won’t make you take my word for it, I’ll let them do the talking.

Some things you will miss in this video, is the scant applause gun control receives from even this very progressive crowd. There’s maybe two to four people in the back clapping after every answer, whereas on other topics, like health care, the candidates get rousing and loud applause from the room. What does the Democratic Party think it has to gain in Pennsylvania by continuing to hammer away on this losing issue? Let’s teach them a lesson in November. Eight years is long enough to have a gun grabber in the Governor’s mansion.

  1. Cemetery's Gun Blob Said,

    I noticed the worded usage of *gun safety legislation*.

  2. Dannytheman Said,

    I promise you I will do my part.

  3. Kathy Said,

    Who is running for the GOP nomination? And who is least likely to prevail against them?

  4. Sebastian Said,

    Sam Rohrer and Tom Corbett. With Corbett being the front running by a large margin.

  5. Bitter Said,

    Least likely to prevail against the likely candidacy of Corbett is Hoeffel. Hoeffel is far too left fiscally for this state. He’s not exactly anything moderate on social issues either, but he wants to grow government in leaps and bounds – rewriting the state constitution while he’s at it.

I reserve the right to remove comments at my discretion. Think of comment threads like a dinner party at someone's house. If you make the party unpleasant for others or me, you won't be invited back. I am happy to tolerate a wide range of viewpoints, even extreme ones, but I'm not going to tolerate nastiness, vitriol, or excessively snippy snarkiness (say that three times fast) toward the author(s) or other commenters. Regular snarkiness is fine, especially directed toward Brady Campaign folks, or certain NRA F rated politicians. You may make your case passionately, but civility is expected.
