Candidate Gun Quotes:

Quote #1: My view is that to resolve this issue we really have to go into the question of whether we need to amend the sportsmen’s bill of rights.' Smith said he is concerned about creating a patchwork of gun laws across the state. 'I believe that there is a place for some reasonable gun safety legislation that does not affect traditional hunting.' 'It may take more than eight weeks to square the circle on this one.' AGAIN, it's NOT ABOUT HUNTING!
