Of course, gun control, like most things in Liberal World, only applies to someone else. Liberals have no problem carrying guns themselves if they choose, because the gun is for their protection.

I think his armed security force, there to protect him from crazy people, should strike till he realizes that he uses armed police to protect him from crazy people (New York Magazine) One of the few points that President Obama and Mitt Romney agree on is that they’re both determined not to let gun control […]

Why? Well, most Americans are against gun control laws (via Jazz Shaw) (Ocala) By 2004, when the assault weapon ban lapsed, congressional Democrats made no serious attempt to pass an extension.
