The National Rifle Association endorsed former Chattanooga Mayor Bob Corker for the U.S. Senate...So he's a hunter and a big law-and-order guy.
Chris W. Cox, chairman of NRA's political-action committee, said Corker's record of halving Chattanooga's crime rate over three years, aggressive prosecution of criminals and hunting background earned him the endorsement.
How does that translate into Second Amendment fidelity?
His campaign website has a tab right at the top on the main page labeled "Second Amendment." That's a good sign. And what does he say about it?
Second Amendment
Standing up for our 2nd Amendment Rights
As Senator, I will protect the Second Amendment’s guarantee of our right to bear arms and reject attempts to limit the freedom of law-abiding gun owners. The best way to stop crime is to capture and imprison criminals—not to impose new burdens on law-abiding citizens. During my tenure as Mayor of Chattanooga, we cut violent crime in half in 3 years by putting repeat criminals behind bars.
Good words so far, but how does he intend to "stand up" and "protect...our right to bear arms"?
Say Uncle has compiled some info that should raise some flags on whether or not this guy is truly what he's being presented as.
