Republican Candidates Favorite Guns

It's one of those 'third rails' in politics, especially for the Republican party. You HAVE to say you would support the 2nd Amendment (because you swore an oath to for one thing). But I found this and thought the responses were....interesting to say the least.

Rick Perry: Declined to comment, but carries a Ruger .380 for snakes/coyotes.

John Huntsman: A .22lr rifle.

Michelle Bachmann: Supposedly a AR-15 (the most popular gun in America).

Mitt Romeny: Nogunz (big fucking surprise there)

Newt Gingrich: Also nogunz (and equally not shocking)

Rick Santorum: A Kimber 1911 (the funniest by far)

And Ron Paul said "a good 2nd Amendment person doesn’t tip off home invaders what guns are in the house and how many he has". Which means, IMO, he'd probably outgun me.

Ron Paul doesn't really need a gun.

Most everyone around him has a gun and is watching his back.

Not being one who knows much about Santorum, why is that funny?

Dude....I live in Dublin, OH......about the only home invaders I have to worry about are renegade tax assessors. Since I'm not that worried about death by paper cuts......I don't feel I really need a gun to assuage my ego.

Now if I was living in a fucked up place full of right wing political nut jobs or Crips and Bloods.....like michigan......then I'd probably have a closet full of Mac-10's too.

Since I have good judgment as to where to live......I can peace out.

(though to be honest with you I owned 3 guns before I got married. An ancient 16 gauge shotgun, a 30-06 and a .45 cal Hawkins. Sold all three before getting hitched on the theory that I like living.)
 
Personally, I would respond with some fictional video game weapon. I guess the Laptop Gun from Perfect Dark would be my favorite. Of course, selecting one with a number series would be less obvious, so that the reporter wouldn't catch on, and the story would break later on, and Americans would get a good laugh. :cool:

Mott, I live in an even nicer neighborhood. I don't lock my car or my doors. EVER. It's not just about a threat from home invasion. It's fun to go to the range (or out in the woods) and waste $50. It's also about exercising my right as a human being and as an America. People too often forget to exercise in any form, but most of all when it comes to their rights, but that will only cause atrophy.
