For a so-called pro-gun candidate, John Kerry sure is ratcheting up the anti-gun rhetoric.

John Kerry is criticizing President Bush for letting a decade-long ban on assault weapons expire while unveiling his own $5 billion plan to fight crime and picking up a police union endorsement. [...]

"George Bush made a choice today. . . He chose his powerful friends in the gun lobby over the police officers [unions] and the [union's] families he promised to protect."

Kerry also had the gaul gall to play the terrorism card:

"Let me be very clear. I support the Second Amendment. I've been a hunter all my life. . . But I don't think we need to make the job of terrorists any easier."

Kerry hasn't even read the Second Amendment, or he'd know it has nothing to do with hunting.

This all plays into his soft national security stance. He votes against $87 Billion funding for our troops fighting the war on terror, and then says he could solve the war on terror could be won with $5 Billion spent on police unions and a domestic gun ban.
