you Shirley for a thoughtful response to Gary’s question. Many of my
family members enjoy hunting and own guns. From my perspective,
however, an “F” rating from the NRA is a badge of honor. Ranting
about 2<sup>nd</sup> amendment rights by louts who would be unable to
discuss (intelligently) any other constitutional issue rings more than
a little hollow to me. Of course, I’m suspicious of any civilian group
that wraps the flag around their agenda.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

style="font-family: 'Calibri','sans-serif';">Gary Crabtree has
requested a discussion from me concerning my low rating from the
National Rifle Association. It’s interesting to me that Mr. Crabtree
did not attend any of the forums, nor take the time to submit a
question during the KRFP interview. I am also uncomfortable with his
vitriolic comments towards people with whom he disagrees politically.
After asking me to respond, he brands my answer “rhetoric” in advance.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p style="margin-bottom: 10pt;" class="ecxmsonormal"><span
style="font-family: 'Calibri','sans-serif';">However, he has raised an
issue about which some of you may be curious, so I will give a candid
response. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 10pt;" class="ecxmsonormal"><span
style="font-family: 'Calibri','sans-serif';">I have many friends who
are sportsmen, belong to the NRA, and enjoy their publications. I
think the organization provides a service that people appreciate. I
also think that, at times, their political action wing has been over
the top. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 10pt;" class="ecxmsonormal"><span
style="font-family: 'Calibri','sans-serif';">This is a powerful
lobbying group in the Idaho Legislature. Many legislators just produce
the votes the NRA requests because of its powerful influence. During
my service in the Legislature, I have not always voted according to
their wishes. I have listened to constituents who have contacted me.
I have contacted attorneys to determine whether the legislation was
deemed necessary by them. After weighing all information, I vote
according to what seems most responsible, and I never take this lightly.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 10pt;" class="ecxmsonormal"><span
style="font-family: 'Calibri','sans-serif';">Gun safety is very
important to me. In the most recent session, the majority passed
legislation stipulating that firearms manufactured exclusively in Idaho
would be exempt from federal regulations. I think that is dangerous
and irresponsible. Our Attorney General said it was likely
unconstitutional. My vote was one of the few against that legislation.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 10pt;" class="ecxmsonormal"><span
style="font-family: 'Calibri','sans-serif';">During my five terms in
the legislature, I have not introduced legislation that would threaten
anybody’s second amendment rights. I have none planned. Nobody enjoys
a low rating from a political action group, and we should always listen
to all sides of an issue before voting. But our legislative
decision-making should not be driven by a desire for high ratings. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
