Jay Wolfe on Gun Control

2002 Republican Challenger (WV)

Bearing arms is an individual right

Allow individuals to carry concealed guns.
Greatly decrease restrictions on the purchase and possession of guns.
Wolfe adds, "I believe that the right to keep and bear arms is an individual right, just like the freedom of speech or religion."
