3. Technically I am not a Kerry supporter
But technically Kerry is not holding either of the signs.

4. photo citation, please
If you think 'gun control' means taking your legal, child-safe gun away, you probably also believe that Saddam and Usama worked together to create and hide all of theose WMD's in Cuba.

Kerry, like Stupak of MI, owns lots of guns and uses them to hunt; however, he doesn't leave them around for either his children to kill each other with or for criminals to steal them easily.

5. I Think the Original Photo Poster is Suggesting...
...That John Kerry is trying to play both sides of the gun issue.

I disagree.

7. uh.
What event was this? I seriously doubt it was a Kerry Campaign event. He (like most elected officials) have probably attended dozens of events where somebody had a sign they didn't like.

13. I believe the photo is from an annual function held at the Mass state
house by "City Year".


is
QUOTE
An Action Tank for national service, City Year seeks to demonstrate, improve and promote the concept of national service as a means for building a stronger democracy. An 'action tank' is both a program and a 'think tank' - constantly combining theory and practice to advance new policy ideas, make programmatic breakthroughs, and bring about major changes in society.

City Year's vision is that one day, the most commonly asked question of a young person will be, "Where are you going to do your service year?"
UNQUOTE

A correct statement is that a group of activists held a demonstration at the Mass state house. Among the demonstrators were one or more people with signs calling for a ban on all guns.

If you or someone has a link to a Kerry statement supporting a ban on all guns, please provide it.

14. Willing to give Kerry the benefit of the doubt on this one
However, I am not suprised to see signs that read 'ban all guns' and 'gun owners kill' and things like that. I'd be really suprised to see a sign that read 'reasonable regulation' or 'ban some guns now' but that doesn't make for good copy. :)






The Red Army fears not the trials of the Long March,

Holding light ten thousand crags and torrents.

The Five Ridges wind like gentle ripples

And the majestic Wumeng roll by, globules of clay.

Warm the steep cliffs lapped by the waters of Golden Sand,

Cold the iron chains spanning the Tatu River.

Minshan's thousand li of snow joyously crossed,

The three Armies march on, each face glowing.

-- Mao Tsetung

9. I think you will find more Kerry supporters in the....
Politics and Campaigns forums. Try posting it there, I would be curious as to what the JK supporters have to say about the event, or validity of the pic.
