Ronald Reagan Discusses Gun Control Laws

[Chris]

"In a 1983 speech to the NRA, President Ronald Reagan explained why trust and personal responsibility are essential for gun ownership.

"Nicholas Johnson, professor of Law at Fordham University, then discusses why stricter gun laws do not reduce gun violence."

Reagan's right.

Ronald Reagan signed California's Mulford Act and backed the Brady Bill, so he was a leftists banneroid.

Mulford was the 1960s. Brady, because he was almost assassinated.

None of that matters. Reagan was a leftist banneroid. That's a fact.

True, he started off on the left and ended up on the libertarian right.

He wasn't perfect by any means.

That could be one of the most ill informed comment ever posted here.

Reagan was once a Democrat, but that was in an era prior to their dramatic shift to modern liberalism.

Reagan is the most over-rated President in my lifetime. He didn't bring the USSR down. He just hammered the last nail in and got out of the way.

He tripled the deficit his first year.

He talked the talk but didn't walk the walk.

I believe you are mistaken about that. The triumvirate of President Reagan, Prime Minister Thatcher and Pope John Paul II were absolutely instrumental in bringing down the Soviet Union.

Operations like that of Gus Weiss and the Siberian gas pipeline, our training and equipping of the Muj in Afghanistan in resisting the Soviets, the support of the Solidarity movement in Poland... all part of a concerted plan to bring down the Soviet Union.

Reagan was without doubt, the greatest President of my lifetime.

He wasn't perfect, made mistakes, didn't always live up to his promises but still the best President I've ever known.

He wasn't perfect, made mistakes, didn't always live up to his promises but still the best President I've ever known.

He was too trusting of democrats who promised to cut spending and never delivered.
