Days before blasting President Bush for allowing the unconstitutional 1994 “assault weapons” ban to expire on September 13th, presidential candidate John Kerry marched through West Virginia proudly brandishing a Remington 11-87 shotgun.
“He can’t be against our guns, or want to take mine, if he’s got one of his own,” concluded painfully gullible West Virginian gun owner Paul Cooper.
Yes, Paul, he can. And does: earlier this year, Kerry sponsored a bill (S-1431) that would have made it a felony to possess the very gun that he was holding: the Remington 11-87.
Remember, kids: hypocrisy isn’t a disqualification for leftists; it’s a requirement.
