Statement Of Brady Campaign President Paul Helmke On Louisiana's Rejection Of Loaded, Concealed Handguns On College Campuses...Do the Brady's have a point? And if so, why does it not surprise me?
Nevertheless, over a dozen NRA A-rated members voted against this bill. [More]
Here's the vote.
I figure it's up to Louisiana gun activists to do a comprehensive match up for all the reps to find out who the dozen were, but I did a credibility test for 2008. Here are the NRA ratings and endorsement:
Yep, A-rated Nancy Landry and A-rated and endorsed Major Thibeau put out for the "other side".
Even after the Major One told us:
I am a strong advocate of the Second Amendment and a citizen’s right to keep and bear arms.Sure you are, kid. Unless they are adults going to college.
So why haven't you explained yourself?
While I might be inclined to believe him if he told me life was like a box of chocolates, I see no reason why Forrest Lump here should ever again have any credibility on the gun issue.
Some make great hay out of wooing democrats, and greater hay about how many of their political paramours won. Funny how quiet they get when their faithless new friends are caught rolling in the hay and sleeping with the enemy...
