The world I live in bears so little resemblence to NYC that we might as well be on different planets, and I prefer it that way. Same here. Rudy is just a big city yankee with no concept of rural values or lifestyle.
"I do not think the government should cut off the right to bear arms. My position for many years has been that just as a motorist must have a license, a gun owner should be required to have one as well. Anyone wanting to own a gun should have to pass a written exam that shows that they know how to use a gun, that they're intelligent enough and responsible enough to handle a gun. Should both handgun and rifle owners be licensed...we're talking about all dangerous weapons."

"I do not think the government should cut off the right to bear arms".
Here is the obvious misunderstanding of how America was designed. The idiot, and he is not alone, actually believes that "the government" was intended to have that power. Well, maybe they do, but only by conquest!
"Congress have no power to disarm the militia. Their swords, and every other
terrible implement of the soldier, are the birth-right of an American ... the
unlimited power of the sword is not in the hands of either the federal or state
governments, but, where I trust in God it will ever remain, in the hands of the
people."
