I'm not sure Andre Carson has my interests covered. Response from a letter...

[halfmileharry]

Here's what I received from Andre Carson in a reply to a letter I sent him.
I'm not so sure he has my interests or the Constitution covered.
Before I make sure I don't like him I'd like to make sure I'm not biased.
Your thoughts on his reply please.


Thank you for contacting me to voice your concerns about the protection of the Second Amendment. The opinions and concerns of my fellow Hoosiers are essential to the decision making process as a Member of Congress.

As a former law enforcement officer, I respect the constitutionally guaranteed right of all Americans to bear arms and believe that it should be protected. Most American gun owners register their weapons, follow all necessary safety precautions, and use them only as tools for protection or recreation. However, the United States has an unacceptably high level of gun crime. I believe that strong restrictions must be enacted to protect both the public and the Second Amendment rights of all Americans.

I appreciate hearing your thoughts on this important issue and I hope you will continue to contact my office on future issues. I encourage you to visit my website at Congressman Andre Carson | Representing the 7th District of INDIANA where you can view the latest news and updates about pertinent issues and legislation important to you, or follow me on Twitter @RepAndreCarson. You may also sign up for my weekly e-newsletter The Carson Courier to receive periodic updates on my activities in Indianapolis and in Washington, D.C. As always, my staff and I are here to serve you. Please feel free to contact me if we ever can be of further assistance to you.
Sincerely,

André Carson

André Carson
Member of Congress

I'm not sure he has anyone's interests covered other than his own. Who is registering their weapons and with what authority? What kind of strong restrictions should be placed on the law abiding citizen? Is there gun crime in this country? Yep, but at the lowest rate in several decades. Must be those law abiding citizens with registered guns helping out. Remember Harry who he votes with nearly 100% of the time.

Oh, I know who and what he is. I tried to save the purple ink. His reply is out in the open. He won't get my vote. Heck, I wouldn't tinkle on his shoes if his strings were on fire.

I love Andre's continuing reference to being "a former law enforcement officer". For those who don't know, he was on the State Excise Police, a job most surely garnered for him by his aunt/grandmother/whatever Julia who had the skids greased quite well in Marion County. According to a friend who is well connected with State level LE, Andre was somewhat less than respected by his peers. He's nothing but an Obama lap dog!

 

[Trigger Time]

Worthless POS just like his grandma was. He only has ONE communities interest in mind and he falls way short to them too.

The name "Carson" and the US Constitution are incompatible on just about every level.

 

[indykid]

Carson is one of those who is guaranteed to win regardless as to whether there is an election or not on election day.

He is also one who doesn't understand what the constitution is all about, and the fact that murder is already illegal, and punishing honest people has never worked for their betterment.

 

[HeadlessRoland]

Andre Carson is a huge scumbag, one of the worst I've ever had the misfortune to meet - and yes, I've met him.

 

[Fred78]

What a crock!

 

[KellyinAvon]

What is this gun registration he speaks of?

HalfMileHarry: One word of advice: move. 4th District is just to your west.

This man needs help.

Andre Carson is a complete and utter piece of sht....regardless of his position on this matter.

I was thinking the same thing. Let's say one thing, and then immediately after say the complete opposite. It's so funny that I want to try!

I like cheeseburgers. I don't like cheeseburgers. Do I like cheeseburgers or not? I don't know, you tell me if you want me to like cheeseburgers!

 

[Bennettjh]

I've never registered any guns so I don't know what he's talking about. It's nobody's business what kind of guns I have or don't have.

Andre doesn't have any of my interests covered.

(. . . but ultimately whether or not I like cheeseburgers will depend solely on which choice will benefit me the most.)

Au contraire, mon ami. It depends on whether the cheeseburgers have bacon. And jalapeños.
