It'll be even more good news for Ohio when John Kasich takes office in January.
He's anti-gun.
Woah! My, doesn't my assuming sneak up and bite me on the butt! I had assumed that since he was a good conservative Republican, as well as a Christian, that he would be among those with common sense on 2nd Amendment issues. Boy was I WRONG! I looked up some of his past votes in Congress and I was shocked.
He did start making noise about supporting gun rights as the governors election approached. If he doesn't stick by those promises, I hope he gets voted out on his ear next go round.
Tell me about it - I thought the same thing about him until recently. Burst my bubble just like Chris Christie did:
HANNITY: Are there any issues where you are, quote, moderate to left as a Republican?
CHRISTIE: Listen, I favor some of the gun-control measures we have in New Jersey.
HANNITY: Bad idea.
CHRISTIE: Listen, we have a densely-populated state, and there's a big hand gun problem in New Jersey. Now, I don't support all the things that the governor supports by a long stretch. But I think on guns â€" certain gun control issues, looking at it from a law-enforcement perspective, seeing how many police officers were killed, we have an illegal gun problem in New Jersey.
HANNITY: Should every â€" should every citizen in the state be allowed to get a licensed weapon if they want one?
CHRISTIE: In New Jersey, that's not going to happen, Sean.
HANNITY: Why?
CHRISTIE: Listen, the Democratic legislature we have, there's no way those type of things â€" listen, at the end of the day, what I support are common sense laws that will allow people to protect themselves, but I also am very concerned about the safety of our police officers on the streets, very concerned. And I want to make sure that we don't have an abundance of guns out there.
