Pro-choice.

Abortions in NYC declined under Rudy's watch

Pro-gun control.

Gun-control was the norm in NYC. Rudy cracked down on the thugs and gang-bangers. Name one law-abiding citizen who had their gun taken away

Pro-amnesty to the point of defying the Supreme Court that New York's sanctuary policy violated federal law.

Yes, and I'm discouraged by this. Please keep in mind, though that NYC is ground zero (no pun intended) for immigration. Perhaps Rudy didn't want to offend the citizens.

And support of gay rights

It's NYC, it is what it is.

Yes they did, unfortunately at half the rate of decline as the country as a whole. Rudy is not pro-choice, he is a pro-abortion extremist who has publically opposed a ban on partial birth abortion, a position to the left of 75% of th population.

Gun control is big in NYC, what does that have to do with Rudy's unabashed support for even more draconian gun control?

Law abiding citizens need not have worried, as long as they worked for Rudy's administration.

Some of the most recognizable names in former Mayor Rudolph Giuliani's inner circle were granted police permits to carry arms even as the number of handgun licenses issued by the city dropped nearly a quarter from the start of his administration, according to NYPD documents obtained by Newsday.

Every single person in the city who wants, but cannot legally own, a gun.

True. You win. Oh, wait a minute. They declined, but at a much smaller percentage than they declined nationwide in the same time period. Good try. you lose.

Not an issue unless you can tell us how Guiliani made this happen. He has supported partial birth abortion which makes him not just liberal but vile.

At about half the rate of the national rate while pro-choicer Bill Clinton was president.

Name one law-abiding citizen who had their gun taken away

A poster on FR said they had two legal carry permits yanked by Rudy's Admin without cause. And Rudy didn't try to alter NY gun laws to allow greater concealed carry.

Perhaps Rudy didn't want to offend the citizens.

Boy, that makes me soo enthused that Rudy is so committed to law and order that he would not allow cooperation of the enforcement of federal immigration law because a voter block would be offended.

It's NYC, it is what it is.

Which means Rudy was a good fit for mayor of NYC. He's not a good fit to be president.
