Good grief.... Had never heard of him before today. Well... first impressions and all that... What a head-case.

He had a golden opportunity to put forward pro-gun views and he blew it in spectacular form.

The only people nodding in agreement and punching the air will have been those who already share his views: precisely the ones he and others who are concerned about gun rights shouldn't be focusing on.

Meanwhile, all those who are in two minds will not likely have been drawn to his cause... rather were sent running the other way...

On top of that he opts for the nationalist approach. When you start using your opponent's nationality as a debating point, rather than weaknesses in his or her arguement, it is time to shut up....
