JUDICIARY AND LAW ENFORCEMENT MATTERS
Gun Control
I am not an NRA member, but I respect the 2nd Amendment rights of all citizens who want to carry and use firearms in an appropriate and lawful manner. With rights come responsibilities. I support tough gun laws that provide severe penalties for people who abdicate their responsibilities by using guns to commit crimes or engaging in the unlawful trafficking of firearms. I also believe that it is reasonable to impose certain safety requirements, such as the requirement that each sale of a handgun include a child-safety lock, to protect our children.
