Just received a letter from L. G. concerning the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act. Says he supports it & is an original cosponsor. From there his wording on support for 2A issues begins to bother me & I wrote him back telling him so. I ask him to answer 2 Q's for us. He writes, "The Constitution's Second Amendment means what it says: (OK for now but listen to this) still quote, "our right to bear arms should not be infringed." Did the lights come on everyone? I pointed out that KEEP was conspicuously missing and that John Kerry also assured the American public that he supported 2A with its right to "bear arms." The place to do that was in the American military. Q # 1. Mr. Gohmert, do you believe the Constitution guarantees the right of law abiding citizens to KEEP arms & bear them as a law abiding citizen? Then the Constitution says the this right SHALL not be infringed instead of should not. (Any difference in the 2 wordings Mr. Cotton). Q # 2. Mr Gohmert, do you believe the 2A guarantees the right of the individual who is a law abiding citizen SHALL NOT have this right infringed or that it just should not be infringed? I reminded him that I am a voter, NRA member, & Republican Party Precinct Chairman. I will also forward this to NRA & hope it is an oversite. Man that is a BIG overcite.

Grab that booger by the tail and don't let go "longtooth"!!!

A few phone calls and emails etc etc etc, might induce a clarification...

But then again, the radar "should" always be up and running on this guy...

You'd think they'd know better...But I'll hold judgement off for a while till we get a clarification on this statement...

Of course I'll be branded as a "gun nut" for pushing the issue...

Like that assumption bothers me...

Cut from the same mold. We are prowd of who our forfathers raised us to be. I am worse than an old Loggerhead Turtle. You can count my posts & see that I don't do a lot of just jawing. If I have something to say I will. When I think it through & say it, I don't back up an inch. I do hope it is an oversight too. If so it is an inexcusable one in conversation today. In formal print as is a letter to a Congressman & his reply to a constituant it is ABSOLUTELY inexcusable. Couple that w/ the likes of Kerry & the other domestic enemies of our constitution & it is an unconstitutional statement. Carry 24-7 or guess right.

You deserve a timely and clear response...
