[QUOTE="WessonOil, post: 2095292, member: 25792"] I have to disagree, the Democrats placed into office one of the most anti-gun President in American history, who has handed down executive orders. A previous Democrat, Bill Clinton, signed the first assault weapons ban. Fast and Furious: Obama On other matters the two parties aren't far apart...but on this forum topic they are. State and local elections..I vote both sides of the aisle. Federal level: Republican and Independant. For those who think there is no difference in the least between the two parties, please take a look at what the two partie's platform are concerning guns rights: [B]Democratic Platform:[/B] [url]http://www.ontheissues.org/celeb/democratic_party_gun_control.htm[/url] [I]Right to own firearms is subject to reasonable regulation We recognize that the individual right to bear arms is an important part of the American tradition, and we will preserve Americans' Second Amendment right to own and use firearms.
