Limits only on assault rifles and military hardware

Q: Overall, are you supportive of second amendment rights, or do you believe that the need to curtail crime is more important?

A: STRONGLY SUPPORT 2ND AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITUTION; LIMITS ON ASSAULT RIFLES AND MILITARY HARDWARE

Q: Incorporation means that the Bill of Rights guarantees rights that not even the states can override. This includes second amendment rights. Non-incorporation means that the Bill of Rights and the Constitution limits the federal government, but not the states. Where do you stand on incorporation?

A: BILL OF RIGHTS APPLIES TO BOTH FEDERAL AND STATES

Q: A ban was in place on the sale of assault weapons from 1994 to 2004. Would you support or oppose the reimplementation of an assault weapons ban?

A: SUPPORT ON AUTOMATIC ASSAULT WEAPONS AND AUTOMATIC HIGH CAPACITY MAGAZINES.
