Rudy misunderstands the 2nd Amendment

Posted 22 Aug 2007 in 2008 election, gun control

As much as I like and respect the guy, this is one of the reasons I’m having a hard time with Rudy Giuliani as a GOP candidate. How can a guy with such a misguided view of Constitutional rights be seriously considered for President? (h/t: Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler)

“My position for many years has been that just as a motorist must have a license, a gun owner should be required to have one as well. Anyone wanting to own a gun should have to pass a written exam that shows that they know how to use a gun, that they’re intelligent enough and responsible enough to handle a gun. Should both handgun and rifle owners be licensed…we’re talking about all dangerous weapons.”

Using Rudy’s logic, voters should have to pass a written exam to prove they’re “intelligent enough and responsible enough” to exercise their right to vote.

How well do you think that’d go over?
