Does Newt still support gun control?

01-17-2012 • paramountcommunication.com

Ever find yourself watching a presidential debate wondering why the moderator isn't asking the tough, hard-hitting questions you want asked?

Believe me, I know the feeling . . .

. . . especially since this crop of Republican presidential candidates features so many candidates with anti-gun records.

You and I know all about Mitt Romney's long history of supporting gun control -- he signed a gun ban as Governor of Massachusetts. He is an enemy of gun owners.

But then there is the lessor-known anti-gun record of Newt Gingrich.

I'm not surprised at all that he continues to stonewall gun owners by refusing to return his National Association for Gun Rights Presidential Survey.

The fact is, Newt Gingrich has had a long love affair with the anti-gun crowd.

Please take a minute or two right now to review Newt Gingrich's decades-long support of gun control:

*** Newt supports a national biometric thumbprint database for gun purchasers -- He doesn't think that the Brady National Gun Registry goes far enough and that gun owners should be forced to undergo fingerprinting before they are allowed to purchase a firearm;

*** Newt supports the Lautenberg Gun Ban -- He voted to strip law-abiding gun owners of their 2nd Amendment rights for life, simply because they spanked their children or did nothing more than grab the wrist of a spouse;

*** Newt supports the “Criminal Safezones Act” -- He stood shoulder to shoulder with Nancy Pelosi to turn every school in America into a “criminal safe-zone,” where law-abiding adults are disarmed and defenseless while gun-toting thugs are free to commit horrific atrocities like the Columbine Massacre.
