Tom Tancredo at NRA's Celebration of American Values Conf

Presidential candidate Colorado Rep. Tom Tancredo told the crowd via a videotaped message that he is proud of his A-rating from the NRA, and reminded them that he is a co-sponsor of the legislation to overturn the D.C. gun ban. "I can't wait until that lower court ruling is upheld, because I have a concealed-carry permit, and I'll feel a lot safer, by the way, when I'm able to carry here in Washington, D.C." Tancredo also elaborated on his pro-gun platform with his co-sponsorship of legislation that would make it illegal for the government to take away law-abiding citizens' guns in the time of a crisis, such as in a post-hurricane Katrina situation, and reiterated his support for legislation that would prevent frivolous lawsuits from being filed in an attempt to bankrupt gun manufacturers.
