A F rating is desired. He voted five times against the Brady Bill, he voted to give immunity to gun manufactures, he has been wrong too many times.

I am appalled!

Sanders went there. He said Hillary is backing gun liability which would in effect end gun manufacturing and sales - and ownership! - in America.

Yeah, I heard that twice!

Hear it most often from the 2A fanatics, every Republican, the NRA - but now I hear it from Sanders!
