Gun Owners of America - 
 
California Race Could Retire Notorious Gun Grabber - boot 
Barbara Boxer. Elect 
 
Howard Kaloogian as U.S. senator from California. Campaign 
donations requested. [kaba]
  
As a state assemblyman, Kaloogian earned a solid "A" rating from Gun 
Owners of California. He has fought for the gun rights of Californians 
for years, and I have no doubt he will continue to fight for your 
rights after he is elected to the U.S. Senate.From Mr. Kaloogian's 
 
issues page:
 Even if you don't live in California, his election to the U.S. Senate 
will mean more freedom for all those who cherish the Second 
Amendment.
 
 Kaloogian is, by far, the best pro-gun candidate in this 
primary. Millions of dollars will be spent to elect the next senator 
from California. Kaloogian needs your help to get his name in front of 
every pro-gun voter in the state.
  
Second Amendment:[End the War on Freedom]
 I believe that the Second Amendment to the Constitution of the United 
States guarantees the right of individual law-abiding Americans to own 
and use the firearms of their choice. I oppose any new restrictions on 
the right of citizens to possess firearms because there are enough new 
laws on the books. I believe that President Clinton's flawed and 
unworkable 1994 gun ban legislation, which attempted to impose 
restrictions on some weapons, should be allowed to expire in 2004 as 
scheduled. The answer to gun violence in our country is to focus on 
the criminal use of firearms in the commission of a crime and enforce 
the laws that punish those criminals.
 
I won't be voting for him. Although a candidate's position on the Second Amendment is the first thing I look at, it's not the only thing--and Kaloogian looks pretty bad on some other important issues. For example, he's openly homophobic and anti-abortion. And although his issues page is vague on his foreign policy position, in an article on his site he writes, "I believe [Bush] has been a terrific wartime president."3:41:55 PM
