I'm not deffending the Dem stance on gun control. the point I was making is that the republicans are no more pro-gun than the dems.
if one party takes a stance on an issue the other automaticly decides to take the opposing stance (publicly), I can't think of a single issue where they agree.
but all the lip-service asside, rich republican politicians don't want guns in the hands of your average american, anymore than the dems do.
