Just when I thought the Democrats were getting it
They stay stupid with their official platform. It’s just like 2004 when they said we support the right to own guns except, you know, when it comes to actually owning guns that are the most popular sporting rifle in the country.
Update: Over at DU comes this quote:
Interesting the folks in Cheyenne apparently have a different set of rights than people in Chicago.
I guess they never heard of the densely populated area exception to the second amendment?

Heh ‘Interesting the folks in Cheyenne apparently have a different set of rights than people in Chicago.’

The base moves faster than the party apparatus…this position was a weigh-station I passed through quickly on my way from anti- back to 100% pro-gun rights. But the party as a whole continues to shoot itself in the foot.
I liked the comment on David Hardy’s site that “Gee, the 14th Amendment was passed to prevent the Democratic Party from depriving guns from black people…” and noting it’s still needed, and will be used (via incorporation lawsuits) to do just that, especially against the Chicago local party machine.
I’m Green/Independent now party because of ongoing Democratic stupidity over gun rights.

This is scary rhetoric.
Looks like I may need to do some re-tooling before the innaugeration.
