Not all gun owners and RKBA proponents are Republicans.
Franken is not a second amendment supporter. He still wants a magazine ban and universal background checks.

Because I tend to disagree strongly with most republican positions on social and economic issues. I myself am not registered as a Democrat but I did vote for Harry Reid the last couple times I could as well as twice for Obama. The reasons are simple. The republican line on economics seems to be spend spend spend and lower taxes. The Democrat line seems to be spend spend spend but lets raise some taxes. Neither are great but one is better than the other. Democrat spending also tends to be on social services which have a greater benefit than more military spending. Republican foreign policy is atrocious. Republican stances on gay marriage and abortion always have me looking for an opponent who supports true civil rights.
If I could find a political party that had some sound social and economic policy along with heavy protections for civil rights, I'd sign up in a heartbeat.
Until then, I pick the least offensive and vote that way.
just in case you care.
someone should remind him about that day and ask him to read the 2a out loud
A lot of Democrats support the RKBA. Just because there is a R behind their name don't mean that they are pro-gun.

Echo that - an "I" next to my nameMe neither. I got left behind by both quite a few years ago.

That we are here discussing the fact that a former SNL cast member with absolutely no political background whatsoever (zero credentials) is now a sitting United States Senator is not even mentioned or considered as a matter of concern .
