Ronald Reagan On Guns

The Greatest President of a generation is dead...And we're left with the best the Republicans could come up with.
Todays Republican President called Trophy hunting a "nightmare" and promises new gun control laws after every shooting?
The "New Republican Party?"
 
Trump worried about that farm vote he my lose because of tariffs. It's all about polls and votes. I do believe if reelected you will see some form of gun control. I think he will sign some sort of trade deal before election and declare a great victory. His cheap food policy may get him some consumer votes. Cheap corn eventually means cheaper meat.
 
RR no doubt has rolled over in his grave several times.
 
To quote the great man: "SELF DEFENSE IS NOT ONLY OUR RIGHT, IT IS OUR DUTY." This may seem to apply only to handguns but it can also pertain to long guns. Any firearm can be used for self defense.
Hopefully, we will have another RR but the near future doesn't look very promising. Those are awful big shoes to fill and no one yet has come close.
 
Unfortunately, I don't see another Reagan anywhere on the horizon. Instead, more Bush's are in our future, mainly George P. for whom I will never vote for.
 
As Gov of California he signed the Mulford Act and his quotes given at the time are astonishingly negative towards guns. He was a great man, but he was not friendly to the RKBA.

Yup. He signed the Firearm Owners Protection Act of 1986 which gave up new machine guns for basically nothing. Post-Presidency he supported and actively campaigned for both the Brady Bill and the 1994 Assault Weapons Ban.

He was no friend of the 2A

And Hillary would looking out for you rights? And, what exactly has the "Old" Republican party done for the 2A? What did Regan do for gun owners? Or Bush, or the other Bush? No hearing protection Act, no national CCW reciprocity, nothing. At least Trump's kids trophy hunt.
