The Second Amendment is the last line of defense against tyranny and must be protected.
I was the first governor in America to have a concealed handgun license, and I'm a lifetime member of the NRA.
As President, I will:
* Defend the 2nd Amendment
* Oppose new gun control laws
* Protect the rights of gun owners from Big Government
* Oppose new gun restrictions, registrations, regulations & mandates
This issue is crystal clear. Abolishing guns because of reckless abusers makes as much sense as abolishing cars because some people drive drunk.
I'm a lifelong deer, duck, turkey, and pheasant hunter. But the Second Amendment isn't about hunting -- it's about preserving all the rights we possess as American citizens. Washington needs to understand this basic truth.
