"The Second Amendment is not about hunting. It's about defending one's person, family, and property against attack; and it's about defending one's Constitutionally-protected freedoms against attack."The Founders knew all too well that a government -- any government -- could become destructive of its intended end: the protection of the freedoms of the people it governed.
C'mon Fred, tell 'em IT'S NOT ABOUT HUNTING!
Deer have been committing suicide in my back yard for almost 7 years.
Yo, Fred ... you don't NEED no steenking license.
He probably doesn’t have a pilot’s license, either. What’s their point? Do they really thing RKBA is just a hunting issue? I don’t have any guns, currently, but I’m still pro-2nd amendment! What out-of-touch elitist Northeast liberals these press people are!!
Does our President HAVE to have a hunting licence? At least he doesn’t want to give them away to illegals.
GO FRED!!!

What a stupid article. There’s no hunting in Hollywood except for starlets.
"I have hunted varmints more than two times!"
- Romney
"Can I get me a hunting license here?"
- Kerry
I mean, egads man. It is both saddening and insulting.
The only license Fred will need until the end of 08.
If I ever did, it would end with me standing in the forest holding a rifle looking at a dead deer with me thinking 'Okay, now what?'.
I have zero interest in hunting or shooting animals. I'd also look stupid dolled up in RealTree®.
Speaking of CNN and Thompson, I am reminded of the YouTube debates moderated by the Coopster. Did any of you see this from IMAO? I thought it was hilarious!

Funny... last time I shot skeet, I didnt need a license, either. Never heard of a limit on them, but they’re not all that great on the table.
Do politicans need a campaign donor hunting license...
I think VP Cheney shooting a campaign donor sets the record straight. Let the people help run this country -- not big money donors...
Of course, Democrats have a different view -- the big donors run their party... Let us just try to see if the Democrats Hsu this one away...
(As in shue fly don't bother me, or is it Norman Hsu)
I like that he came out and said this instead of the detail being arduously dragged from him. I appreciate his honesty, it is refreshing. I don’t care about the license at all, it is how he handled it that impresses me.
Fred doesn’t have a hunting licence; who cares?
there are millions of people living in USA without residency permit; CNN doesn’t make a big deal out of it.
i don’t have one either yet this year..
I have owned guns my whole life. Shot them, collected them, learned about them. I have currently more than 25 opf them from many different eras.
I have never ONCE hunted and have NEVER had a hunting license.
Wonder if CNN/Hanby will once again open the “investigation” of Kerry’s statement about deer hunting when he said he crawled around on his belly deer hunting. (What a maroon, as Buggs used to say.)
Note to self: Invite Hanby to go hunting with Dick Cheney. Remember: “If this is what he does to his friends, imagine what he’ll do to Al Qaeda.”
I’ll bet Dan Rather is turning (Spinning)in his grave now that the propagandists over at the Clinton News Network have taken his CBS (Could Be Shiite) Ratherization art form to new lows.
That's not Fred.
