Kemper’s radical gun views

Nancy Jo Kemper’s radical views on guns are out of touch with Kentucky.

It is not surprising that Kemper’s ideas for gun control are aligned with other liberals like Nancy Pelosi who have little to no knowledge of firearms. Saying “I have my grandfather’s shotgun” does not give Kemper credibility.

Kemper favors a strict magazine limit that would effectively outlaw most semi-automatic handguns. That is a pretty drastic stance but not surprising from somebody who doesn’t know the definition of “assault rifle.” News flash — assault rifles have automatic and/or burst-firing capabilities. Your average Joe can’t just go to Bud’s Gun Shop and pick up an actual assault rifle.

While I’m sure Kemper will receive an F from the NRA, Andy Barr has an A rating, and that’s all I need to know.
