Steele is EXACTLY what we need.

If you want a gun grabber.

Steele wants to ban semi-automatic firearms, aka "assault weapons".

He also can't grasp the simple fact that the Second Amendment isn't about hunting.


Michael Steele on Gun Control

Q: Should people have access to buy assault weapons?

A: Society should draw lines. What do you need an assault weapon for, if you're going hunting? That's overkill. But I don't think that means you go to a total ban for those who want to use gun for skeet shooting or hunting or things like that But what's the point of passing gun laws if we're not going to enforce them? If you want to talk about gun control, that's where you need to start. We've got 300 gun laws on the books right now. At the end of the day, it's about how we enforce the law.

It’s disappointing to read that, as I liked Steele. After reading that? Not so much.

Steele is a RINO. We’ve had enough of those.

What do you need an assault weapon for

To fight against a tyrannical government.

The 2nd amentment was not for turkey hunting, read your Constitution and some history.
