Dick Gephart on Gun Control and 2004 Campaign |
|
SOURCE: Washington Post
Oxford, England: Rep. Gephardt, why has gun control not been a primary focus in the Democratic campaign?
Thank you.
Rep. Richard A Gephardt : I have strong beliefs in the need for sensible gun safety legislation. I led the effort in the mid 90s for the Brady Bill and the Assault Weapons Ban and I think both bills have helped reduce needless gun violence. Having said that I do support the right to possession of firearms by lawful citizens who are complying with all federal and state laws.

3. Seems like Mr. Gephardt gets it. |

Gun control and gun rights are not mutually exclusive positions.
Or maybe Gephardt is just one of us "gun rights" loonies that someone loves to rant about.
