David Codrea, a long-time activist, reprinted a questionnaire he suggests for pinning politicians down on how they really feel about the Second Amendment. His article is at http://www.examiner.com/x-1417-Gun-Rights-Examiner~y2009m7d24-Make-politicians-prove-they-support-the-Second-Amendment (and he gets paid based on the amount of traffic he gets, so please feel free to click on the link), here is the list:
Quote:
1. Do you believe that the Constitution is the "supreme law of the land" and that the Bill of Rights acknowledges our birthrights?

2. If so, should these rights be proactively protected from infringement by all levels of government, including city, county and state?

3. Please give some examples of gun laws you consider constitutional.

4. Please give some examples of gun laws you consider unconstitutional.

5. Does the right to bear arms include the right for any peaceable citizen to carry them concealed without a permit, as in Vermont?

6. Do you believe that Americans have a right to own, use and carry weapons of military pattern, and will you use the prestige of elected office to publicly promote that right?

7. Do you support or oppose registration of weapons? Why?

8. Do you support or oppose licensing requirements to own or carry firearms?
Why?

9. What specific gun laws will you work to get repealed?

10. If elected, will you back your words of support for firearms rights up with consistent actions? How?

The only problem is no politician in their right mind would ever answer any of these questions, let alone answer them honestly.

I was thinking the same thing.

Plus I doubt most politicians could answer 3 or 4 off the top of their heads. Most of them probably haven't been paying attention to this issue enough to do so
