Arrow National Rifle Association.

The NRA is seeking which candidate it will endorse for Maryland 5th District and below is from the NRA questions :
================

National Rifle Association of America.

2008 U.S. House Candidate Questionnaire [Abridged]


(Agree or disagree with each question.)

Does the Second Amendment guarantee law-abiding individuals the right to keep and bear arms? = I agree.

Does the Second Amendment only protect gun ownership directly related to state military forces? = I disagree.

Gun sales by private citizens must not be subject to federal background check? = I agree.

Firearms sale at gun shows must be subject to background checks? = I disagree.

All firearm transactions (including between family and friends) must be federally regulated? = I disagree.

The national Right-to-Carry reciprocity legislation (carry guns between States)? = I am undecided.

Mandatory ballistic “fingerprinting” and “micro-stamping” of all firearms? = I disagree.

Some extreme weapons must be regulated but the federal government must not ban firearms? = I agree.

The Clinton “Gun and Magazine ban” (expired 2004) must not be reenacted? = I agree.

No further ammunition bans or magazine bans are justified? = I agree.

Since there are instant background checks then no new waiting periods are needed? = I agree.

There must be no record kept of lawful gun purchase, not for 24 hours or 90 days? = I agree.

Federal firearm owner’s licensing through qualifying permits? = I disagree.

Specific firearm registration identifying the individual citizen? = I disagree.

Gun purchases of “one-gun-per-month” or similar restrictions? = I disagree.

“Smart-gun” technology which control the use of the firearm mandated? = I disagree.

H.R. 1399 (in 110 Congress) to restore the Second Amendment rights to Washington D.C. residents? = I am undecided.

Having gun ownership bans in “Public Housing” for tenants? = I disagree.

The large and powerful .50-caliber rifles must not be banned from law-abiding citizens? = I agree.

Imported firearms must be treated differently then identical American manufactured firearms? = I disagree.

H.R. 1384 (in the 109th Congress) to update federal law removing some restrictions on interstate handgun sales? = I agree.

The process for persons to restore their gun ownership rights must be re-enacted? = I agree.

Raise the standard for gun dealer license revocations and denials with lesser penalties for minor offences? = I agree.

Limit use of firearms trace data to law enforcement and not for law suits against gun industry? = I agree.

Policy of No-Net-Loss of public hunting acreage for federal lands used for hunting? = I am undecided.

Sportsman must not be denied access to the federal lands for hunting, fishing or trapping. = I am undecided.
=====================

All of my answers above are in agreement with the NRA positions except for my “undecided” answers.

I believe the Second Amendment was meant for the citizens to have the right and the ABILITY to defend themselves if the Federal gov becomes abusive.

It was not meant for hunting wildlife but for protection against gov tyranny.

The USA founding parents (male and females) had to take up arms to fight and even war against the injustices of the ruling British authority and therefore the Second Amendment was put there to insure that same right to the future generations.

I do not want to have a weapon myself and I am personally non violent and I use to have guns and I got rid of them all, but I maintain that I understand the purpose and the NEED for the common individual citizen to have their right to own and bare arms which must be maintained.

I totally support the Second Amendment as an individual right so that individuals may form as a militia if the need arises.

The Catholic church does not agree with you stance on the NRA.

The Church did not ask about the NRA issues,

and the NRA does not ask about abortion issues.

This is what is meant by "Special Interest Groups" and "Political Action Committees" and I like such things.

But if he did, chances are high that he'd have blown his own head off by now.

So it's not a lie if they don't ask the question even if you know it's wrong!You're stealing an endorcment you don't deserve from a church no less.
