MY STANCE ON KEY ISSUES
PRO-LIFE
I am Pro Life and feel
life should be treated with
complete care from fetus to
death. I strongly support
adoption as a viable alternative
if a pregnancy is unwanted or
the mother feels incapable of
caring for the child. I believe
there are more than enough
couples seeking to adopt, and
actively promote adoption as an
asset to our society. As a
Representative, I would support
any measures that facilitate
increasing adoption rates and
lowering abortion rates in
Pennsylvania.
THE RIGHT TO BEAR ARMS
A check of history makes it
clear that our forefathers meant
for the second amendment to
guarantee the right of an
individual to bear arms. From
the original drafter of the Bill
of Rights, James Madison,
through Thomas Jefferson, and
countless others, it is obvious
that the right to bear arms was
meant to be an individual’s
right and not just applicable to
the arming of a militia. I
support the NRA and the premise
that guns don’t kill people;
people kill people. As such, I
feel that the ownership of
firearms places a certain onus
of responsibility on the
individual, and support firearms
safety education and training
requirements as part of
ownership.
PENNSYLVANIA LIQUOR LAW
I take a firm position that
all wines, liquors and beers
should only be sold in bars,
6-pack shops, distributors, and
state owned stores. I don’t
believe this product should be
sold in convenience stores or
super markets. This would create
high risk situations of the
product getting into the wrong
hands. This would make it very
easy for a younger cashier, at a
store, to slide the product into
the hands of an under aged
friend, and not ask for proper
ID. Tavern/6-pack owners and
state store employees are more
trained to oversee this and
control it. This would also
create high liability insurance
issues which small businesses
could not afford or compete with
larger chains. The PLCB would
also be forced to add additional
personnel to cover the added
locations, which would need to
be monitored and inspected.
ZERO TOLERANCE POLICE
LIABILITY
If a police
officer is killed in the line of
duty by a weapon (gun/knife),
then life without parole should
be a mandatory sentence. We must
back our police officers with
the respect they deserve, as
they protect our lives everyday
when they put theirs in harms
way. |
