frankly I'm at a loss. 2nd amendment issues are the most important to me and I will always vote for whatever candidate comes closest to upholding my view on them.
However, voting for me is always a depressing process, as are politics in general.
I don't understand how guns and gun rights have become the property of the conservative parties. I don't mean to criticize conservatives, I'm sure most of you are. We can certainly agree to disagree. I just find myself in a dark mood. I personally believe in live and let live, and people's freedom. That's part of why I'm pro-gun. also because I like guns, and even if I thought they were "bad" i'd still be pro gun. I really just don't understand why liberals are not pro-gun. it never made any sense to me.
and what the heck is a pro-abortion, pro-gay rights, pro-war(sort of), pro-drug legalization, pro-immigrant sort of guy to do. Libertarians never have a chance, and while philosophically I believe mostly what they do, I find myself more and more in favor of some "nanny-state" philosophies. which of course doesn't mesh at all with the way I feel about drugs or guns.
All I can say is the older I get the less politics makes any sense to me at all. guess i'll just cast another republican vote, and go home and clean my guns. but man, it sucks.
