I will tell you what, Mr/Ms Candidate for office: You say you're pro-gun, you even have a top rating from the NRA.
Well after taking it in the shorts about so many other things with Harry Reid, the NRA rating has been tarnished a tad. It's an imperfect predictor of future behavior, not the NRA's fault, but since so much is out of their control here...
So how do you, the candidate, assure me that you're pro-gun?
Simple.
You put on your web page, no matter how small, a statement that you oppose 922(o), 922(r) and support the removal of short barrel rifles and sound suppressors from the National Firearms Act.
That tells me you know what we're talking about.
Next, when the press inevitably discovers this, you vigorously defend the position.
Gold star bonus points for actually submitting bills that lead to the changes mentioned.
Notice also that I don't care that you're not running for a federal office. So many of you do after a short stint at the state and local levels that I want this to be a position you take when it could cost you with the media and you can't affect directly.
Being pro-gun here is not going to hurt you with gun owners, so what have you to lose? Your NRA rating?
