For Info: The two declared Democratic presidential candidates appear to be trying to outdo each other in promises to "stand up" to the NRA. All in the name of "the people" (including gun owners) who support gun bans overwhelmingly, they claim.
Bill Bradley has an article in the Washington Post this morning saying what he would do if elected President. The following is directly quoted.
"Ban distribution, sale and manufacture of Saturday night special handguns; require registration for every one of the 65 million handguns in the country; require licenseing with a safety course for every person who owns a handgun; prohibit gun dealers from selling guns in residential areas; insist on mandatory trigger locks for guns"
This would, according to Mr. Bradley, "keep the handguns that kill people off the streets, [let us] know where the guns are and who is using them, and get the gun dealers out of neighborhoods where children can more easily get access to guns."
He also would require "background checks before all sales at gun shows and a limitation of handgun purchases to one gun a month."
If anyone thought Bill Bradley a more moderate alternate to Al Gore, this should serve as an answer.
