No dice man- Ben wants to create a national database of potentially dangerous persons to be prohibited from owning firearms....
Not only is such a thing ripe for future abuse, but we already have such a database of people prohibited from exercising this Fundamental Right: they're called CONVICTED felons |

I trust Carson more than Trump, Clinton and Sanders right now. I don't want to say lesser of 2 evils but Carson will do less damage to me to me on the 2 Amendment than the others. I can not take Donald Trump seriously.

But we hardly do that anymore, we just dope them up on a cocktail of antidepressants and cross our fingers. |

I think I live to close to the city for Ben to allow me to own semi-autos so he doesn't get my vote.

Trump is falling, and Carson and Fiorina are rising. I can safely predict that none of them will be the Republican nominee. The institutional underpinnings just aren't there. A successful candidate usually has some previous experience in elective office. Watch Rubio.

However, I’d like to point out that very experienced pols have gotten us into this current mess and I doubt that any of them can/want to get us out of it. |

While Carson once supported the idea of banning assault weapons and armor-piercing ammunition, he says he changed his mind after he read more about the history of tyranny, a subject explored in his new 240-page book. "Reading people like Daniel Webster, who talked about tyranny in Europe and said it would never occur in America because the American people were armed," he says. "When you look at tyranny and how it occurs, the pattern is so consistent: Get rid of the guns for the people first so you can go in and dominate them." Asked whether many Americans worried less about the threat from the government and more about the threat of fellow citizens armed with assault rifles, Carson replied: "You need to be able to protect yourself from both." |

No thanks.
On immigration:
Even today we exploit our fellow human beings for work. Is it moral for us, for example, to take advantage of cheap labor from illegal immigrants while denying them citizenship? I'm sure you can tell from the way I phrased the question that I believe we have taken the moral low road on this issue. Some segments of our economy would virtually collapse without these undocumented workers—we all know that—yet we continue to harass and deport many individuals who are simply seeking a better life for themselves and their families. (From his 2012 book, America the Beautiful.) On handguns I realize that some feel the United States and other world powers with nuclear weapons have no right to declare that others cannot have them. On the surface this seems like a fair argument, but can you imagine how many deaths would occur if everyone were given a handgun? Perhaps it would be fair to give everyone a handgun, but it certainly would not be wise. (From America the Beautiful.) On semi-automatic firearms: "It depends on where you live, I think. If you live in the midst of a lot of people and I'm afraid that that semi-automatic weapon is going to fall into the hands of a crazy person, I would rather you not have it. If you live out in the country somewhere by yourself, I have no problem." (In an interview with Glenn Beck) On evolution: “A lot of people believe in God, but I personally believe that this theory that Darwin came up with was something that was encouraged by the adversary [Satan].” I'm sure many Republicans will vote for him just to prove to liberals how not racist they are. |

Yeah and Christie has changed his mind too. No GOP contender, including Cruz, hasn't had a misstep on the guns issue. To say that Christie's long anti gun history is the same as Carson's gaff is insane. |
