Bush:
President Bush has taken the position in the Supreme Court that the Second Amendment protects a personal, individual right to bear arms.
The Attorney General sent a memorandum to all U.S. Attorneys supporting the view that the Second Amendment “protects the right of individuals…to possess and bear their own firearms.
President Bush strongly, publicly supported passage of a clean version of S. 1805, a bill to help protect gun manufacturers from frivolous lawsuits.
President Bush has committed $1 billion dollars to hire hundreds of prosecutors devoted to prosecuting criminal misuse of firearms. This has lead to a 62% increase in defendants charged with firearms-related crimes.
President Bush received the endorsement of the NRA in 2000.
Kerry:
John Kerry believes that the Second Amendment applies only to state sponsored militias.
John Kerry’s issued a press release approving the view that “…there is no personal constitutional right, under the Second Amendment, to own or use a gun.”
John Kerry and his colleagues ignored the President’s plea for a clean bill and S. 1805 died in the Senate, denying manufacturers the protection they need.
John Kerry’s solution to gun crime has been to regulate, regulate and regulate some more. He has said he is in “favor of federal gun control”, has supported 14 day waiting periods and called for “strict licensing on both federal and state levels of all other firearms”.
John Kerry received an “F” rating from the NRA, a 0% rating from Gun Owners of America, and said “I don’t want to be the candidate of the NRA in this country”.
