KERRY wants to BAN GUNS in AMERICA !!
JOHN KERRY'S 2 decade long U.S. Senate record of opposing SECOND
AMENDMENT rights makes him the most ANTI-GUN candidate in history !!!! Here is the proof: FACT: Kerry co-sponosors a bill that would ban all semi-auto shotguns and detachable magazine semi-auto rifles, a gigantic step towards over-zealous gun control in the USA. (Nov. 21, 2003) FACT: Kerry has said: "I THINK YOU OUGHT TO TAX ALL AMMUNITION, PERSONALLY, I THINK YOU OUGHT TO TAX GUNS" Nov. 7. 1993) FACT: Kerry has voted NINE TIMES in favor of banning semi-auto firearms (3 times in 1990, 2 times in 1993, 3 times in 1994, once in 2004) FACT: Kerry has voted FOR a Ted Kennedy amendment to BAN MOST center fire rifle ammunition, including the MOST COMMON ROUNDS USED BY HUNTERS AND TARGET SHOOTERS. (March 2, 2004) FACT: Kerry has voted to CLOSE OFF hundeds of thousands of acres of the California Mojave Desert to hunting. (April 12, 1994) FACT: Kerry has voted to hold the already HIGHLY REGULATED American firearms industry legally responsible to acts of violent criminals. (twice in 2004) FACT: Kerry was 1 of only 18 Senators to oppose the Firearms Owners Protection Act (July 9, 1985) FACT: Kerry has voted to allow BATF to conduct unlimited warrantless Gestapo-like inspections of FFL holders. (July 9, 1985) FACT: Kerry has voted to CRIMINALIZE legal gun sales between private parties at gun shows. (in 1999 and 2004) FACT: Kerry has voted to impose penalties of $10,000 FINE and ONE YEAR IN PRISON on an adult gun owner, if a juvenile STEALS said adult's firearm and merely displays it in a public place. (in 1998 and 1999) FACT: Kerry has voted to force many small gun dealers OUT OF BUSINESS, which would have impacted the economy and availability of guns, ESP. IN RURAL AREAS. (July 1993) FACT: Kerry voted twice to ELIMINATE THE CIVILIAN MARKSMANSHIP PROGRAM for our youth. (1993 and 1996) FACT: Kerry wants to silence gun owners' freedom of speech- when NRA sought the same exemption from campaign refinance rules that NEWS ORGANIZATIONS have, Kerry called the effort "hijacking America's airwaves". FACT: Kerry commended the MILLION MOM MARCH in Washington that included calls for GUN LICENSING, GUN REGISTRATION, and many other restrictions on law abiding gun owners. FACT: If elected president, Kerry will pack the U.S. SUPREME COURT with Dianne Feistein/Chuck Schumer/Ted Kennedy-selected anti-gun activists, who believe you HAVE NO RIGHT TO OWN ANY FIREARM. WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM A KERRY PRESIDENCY: 1- A ban on all semi-auto shotguns, exactly the same type presented to Kerry recently at a campaign stop. 2- A ban on ammunition, especially center fire rifle ammo. 3- A ban on all semi-automatic rifles. 4- Fewer firearms dealers and that means HIGHER PRICES for guns/ammo. DEFEND FIREARMS- DEFEAT KERRY- VOTE GEORGE W. BUSH ON NOVEMBER 2 www.nrapvf.org |

Not that I believe an 8-track discussion group should be filled with political
ranting, but since the door was opened, I thought I'd post this that came in my email today. From today's Salon.com: The blind leading the blind Even if they don't like to say it out loud, lots of Democrats think that George Bush's supporters are a horde of ignoramuses. Now comes evidence that they're right! A remarkable new report titled "The Separate Realities of Bush and Kerry Supporters" from PIPA, the Program on International Policy Attitudes at the University of Maryland, suggests that rank and file Republicans are more benighted than even the most supercilious coastal elitist would imagine. Analyzing data from a series of nationwide polls, the report finds that a majority of Bush supporters believe things about the world that are objectively untrue, while the majority of Kerry supporters dwell in the reality-based community. For example, Bush backers largely think that the president and his policies are popular internationally. Seventy-five percent believe that Iraq was providing "substantial" aid to al-Qaida, and 63 percent say clear evidence of this has been found. That, of course, would be news even to Donald Rumsfeld, who earlier this month told the Council On Foreign Relations, "To my knowledge, I have not seen any strong, hard evidence that links the two." Though its language is dispassionate, the report lays responsibility for this epidemic of ignorance at the White House's door. "So why are Bush supporters clinging so tightly to these beliefs in the face of repeated disconfirmations?" it asks. "Apparently one key reason is that they continue to hear the Bush administration confirming these beliefs." Indeed, it says, "an overwhelming 82% [of Bush supporters] perceive the Bush administration as saying that Iraq had WMD (63%) or a major WMD program (19%). Only 16% of Bush supporters perceive the administration as saying that Iraq had some limited activities, but not an active program (15%) or had nothing (1%). The pattern on al Qaeda is similar. Seventy-five percent of Bush supporters think the Bush administration is currently saying Iraq was providing substantial support to al Qaeda (56%) or even that it was directly involved in 9/11 (19%). Further, 55% of Bush supporters say it is their impression the Bush administration is currently saying the US has found clear evidence Saddam Hussein was working closely with al Qaeda (not saying clear evidence found: 37%)." These people aren't going to be swayed by the argument that Bush has alienated American's allies and left the country isolated in the world, because they don't believe this to be the case. "Despite a steady flow of official statements, public demonstrations, and public opinion polls showing that the US war against Iraq is quite unpopular, only 31% of Bush supporters recognize that the majority of people in the world oppose the US having gone to war with Iraq," the study says. Bush supporters also think that world public opinion favors Bush's reelection. In a poll taken from September 3-7, the study says, "57% of Bush supporters assumed that the majority of people in the world would prefer to see Bush reelected, 33% assumed that views are evenly divided and only 9% assumed that Kerry would be preferred." In fact, a PIPA study released in early September found that a majority or plurality of people from 32 countries preferred Kerry to Bush. PIPA surveyed 34,330 people, ages 15 and above, from regions all over the world. A Pew poll released this spring similarly found that "large majorities in every country, except for the U.S., hold an unfavorable opinion of Bush." Bush supporters are also mistaken about the president's own positions (a pattern of misapprehension that an earlier PIPA report also documented). "Majorities incorrectly assumed that Bush supports multilateral approaches to various international issues -- the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (69%), the treaty banning land mines (72%); 51% incorrectly assumed he favors US participation in the Kyoto treaty -- the principal international accord on global warming... Only 13% of supporters are aware that he opposes labor and environmental standards in trade agreements -- 74% incorrectly believe that he favors including labor and environmental standards in agreements on trade. In all these cases, there is a recurring theme: majorities of Bush supporters favor these positions, and they infer that Bush favors them as well." According to the report, this reality gap is something new in American life. "So why do Bush supporters show such a resistance to accepting dissonant information?" it asks. "While it is normal for people to show some resistance, the magnitude of the denial goes beyond the ordinary. Bush supporters have succeeded in suppressing awareness of the findings of a whole series of high-profile reports about prewar Iraq that have been blazoned across the headlines of newspapers and prompted extensive, high-profile and agonizing reflection. The fact that a large portion of Americans say they are unaware that the original reasons that the US took military action -- and for which Americans continue to die on a daily basis -- are not turning out to be valid, are probably not due to a simple failure to pay attention to the news." The analysis says that the roots of this denial could lie in the trauma of 9/11 and people's desire to hold on to their image of Bush as a "capable protector." It offers no guidance, though, on how ordinary Republicans might be coaxed back to reality. And while "The Separate Realities of Bush and Kerry Supporters" may be perversely satisfying to Democrats in its confirmation of blue-state prejudices, it carries a pretty disturbing question for all rational Americans: How can arguments based on fact prevail in a nation where so many people know so little? -- Michelle Goldberg --Bob Farace "I only believe in fire." --Anais Nin |

I'm not a "right wing" extremist, D-Bob.
My family were STAUNCH DEMOCRATS since the early 1900's, and voted for FDR 4 times, Truman, JFK, LBJ, Carter. When Clinton embraced the GAY COMMUNITY, ABORTIONISTS, RADICAL FEMINISTS and ATHEISTS, my family starting voting REPUBLICAN. Even though they are all still registered DEMOCRAT. I was always registered INDEPENDENT since 1992. Pa. is a big time HUNTING state and we value our GUN RIGHTS here. Under Kerry's proposed GUN BANS, we would have to pay taxes on our ammunition and guns we already own. Our semi automatic pistols, rifles, shotguns would be OUTLAWED, and have to be turned in and DESTROYED. That includes a Browning Auto-5 my dad got as a kid for grouse/pheasant hunting- a family heirloom. My wife's 22 auto target/self defense pistol. My own 22 auto plinking rifle. And a few more. The Browning Auto-5 that was presented to KERRY recently while on campaign, in West Virginia, would be OUTLAWED under his own bill he tried to get passed. You figure that out. And the guy has the nerve to go GOOSE HUNTING in Ohio to try to cover all this up recently. We're not buying the charade he puts on. NO WAY. Wake up and realize the gun issue is a LOSING POLITICAL ISSUE for Kerry, and the Clinton people even agree to that fact. |
