Juili Annie the fascist liar showing his true belief about the right of the "little people" to keep and bear arms

LEBANON, N.H. — Republican presidential front-runner Rudy Giuliani is leaving the door open to allowing the blind and physically disabled to carry guns.
During a town hall meeting in northwestern New Hampshire Tuesday night, Giuliani told a former police officer blinded in the line of duty and concerned about the former New York City mayor's stance on guns, "You don't have to worry."
"You have a constitutional right, that is protected, to bear and carry arms. It is the Second Amendment," Giuliani told about 200 attendees in a high school gymnasium in Lebanon. "If someone disagrees with that, you have to get the Constitution changed."
He added that he believes in only three restrictions for those wishing to exercise their Second Amendment right — a previous criminal record, a history of mental instability and an age requirement.
Kenyon Tuthill, 61, who served as a Suffolk County, N.H., police officer until his injury, told FOX News that he was satisfied with Giuliani's answer.
During his two terms as mayor, Giuliani supported strict gun laws at both the local and national level and advocated the federal assault weapons ban that expired in 2004. But as a presidential candidate, he vows to protect Second Amendment rights at the federal level allowing state and local authorities to determine their own "reasonable" restrictions.
New Hampshire, the Live Free Or Die State, is known for its limited gun-control laws, including no waiting period for purchases, no background checks for buyers of rifles and shotguns and no restrictions on children under 18 possessing firearms, according to the Brady Campaign, a gun-control advocacy group.
But the rural state with lots of sportsmen and a high rate of gun ownership annually has fewer than 100 total murders, including non-gun crimes, and Second Amendment rights are hugely important to constituents of both parties.
New Hampshire allows the blind to possess firearms, Tuthill said.
What a schmuck
Talk about a shot in the dark.
I wonder how he was blinded in the line of duty. Very tragic.
And driving rights! Don’t forget the driving rights!! The blind have been discriminated enough and it’s time to stop it forever!!! VOTE RUDY!!!
/sarc
Oh, my goodness.
“OK...freeze and get your hands up. OK...are they up?”
Uh....I thought Rudy was for gun-control....?
Sounds to me like he’s either lying...or he’s stupid. (or both)
No Giuliani, NO PROBLEM
focus on the two front runnders, Thompson and Romney.
The rest are just useless vote splitters.
He also thinks we have a constitutional right of abortion. If he became POTUS...which he won’t...he wouldn’t lift a finger to defend gun rights or the unborn. He’d just appoint the judges he considers qualified and confirmable, and let them decide how fast to take away the guns and at what income level you can get a free abortion from the taxpayers.
I can hear it already: “I personally hate gun control, I think it’s loathesome. But the law says...the Supreme Court has upheld...”
I believe in Wisconsin the blind are able to hunt, they just take a "spotter" with them, so for us, this is a mainstream idea.
You have a constitutional right, that is protected, to bear and carry arms. It is the Second Amendment," Giuliani told...
Rudy is an i-d-i-o-t.
"To Bear" and "Carry" are the same thing. The jerk can't even get 'to keep and bear arms' correct. And this is not the 1st time he's made this blunder.
Some 'top US Attorney' he was. No wonder 'The Commission' voted not to whack him, he was an incompetent boob.
Oh, and let's make that WRONGLY told.
And what's up with this age limit bullshit. The elderly NEED protection more than your average person.
The same with the disabled. Is there some Constitutional law Fruity Rooty knows about that bars the disabled from protecting themselves.
Dam what an assh*le.

He's a politician. But then that's the same thing you said.
