Kerry has made it official: if elected, he will ram through a new AWB.
The new AWB, which has already passed the Senate, will ban *all* semi-auto
shotguns, and many rifles which were exempted by name in the late
unlamented Clinton AWB.
The frightening part is that Kerry just may get elected, all because of
gun owners who can't be bothered to vote because "it won't make any
difference."
Enough gun owners are out there to make a difference, *if* they shake off
this complacency and *vote*.
In 1996, Washington State gun owners woke up and defeated an initiative
that would have established New York City style gun control -- one that
all the polls in the liberal media claimed would pass in a landslide.
That year had voter turnout that had not been seen before, or since. The
anti-gun Seattle Times ruefully wrote that the 79% NO vote "wasn't just a
`no', but rather a `Hell, no.'"

You're referring to John Kerry the candidate or John Kerry the alias you're using here?
I don't believe you can substantiate any of this.
What ever makes you suspect gun owners don't vote.
By the way, in the absence of citation of a reliable source, it is difficult to imagine Kerry taking a irrevokable stance on motherhood, apple pie, and the American flag.
and so what if he does? is anyone stupid enough to think that being able to own these guns will make them safer?
Why do you have two threads of the same subject?
Duplicating posts is not kosher.
