On Thursday, October 9th, the NRA officially endorsed John McCain and Sarah Palin. The article discusses McCain and Palin and their devote devotion to gun control rights. According to the article, John McCain has voted pro-gun and pro-hunting for two decades. The article also points out that Sarah Palin is a gun owner, hunter, and lifetime member of the NRA.
According the information given, Barack Obama has a record of opposition to gun rights. Cox says, "Obama has voted to make self-defense with a firearm in the home illegal, has voted to ban the most commonly owned hunting shotguns, has voted to ban commonly owned hunting ammunition, and has supported a 500% tax increase on guns and ammunition. We will remind voters every single time he pretends that his anti-gun record doesn't exist."

The news of the NRA's endorsement of the McCain- Palin tickets sway votes. While it is clear that "guns dont kill people...", it is hard to ignore the fact that gun violence is on the rise. Sure, many guns are used as hunting tools but for a while now, guns have been used as murder weapons. Most voters do not completely understand the views of the NRA; it would be very beneficial for the McCain- Palin campaigne to enlighten the public on more of the positives of guns
