Jimmy Carter: Not an NRA Member

I'm waiting for the transcript from Hannity's show tonight, but Jimmy Carter aired his opinion of the average gun owner in America today.

When asked about guns, Carter stated his personal affinity for guns. He clearly stated that he had been shooting since a young age and that he currently owned shotguns, handguns and rifles.

In what may be mildly described as a hypocritical statement, Carter expanded on guns by saying that (I'll paraphrase till the transcript is published...) 'no one wants to own an assault weapon. The only reason to own an assault weapon is to kill police officers or go to a school and see how many bodies one can rack up before turning the gun on themselves....'

Well, it certainly is nice to know what the average peanut farmer thinks of the free citizens of this country.

The federal government recognizes no limits on it's own power any more. They do not recognize the natural rights, those God given, inalienable rights contemplated in the Constitution.....

Where to begin? Repealing the 16th amendment would be a good start.....

Check back, I'll post the Carter link as soon as I can find it.
