I'm not familiar with that guy. If you were a police officer, would you want more or less people with legal access to guns?
I agree totally. Guns should be highly regulated. There's not many good reasons anyways why someone should have a gun unless they hunt or live rurally, so i'm not even against an urban ban on handguns or a full ban except in particular circumstances, it's just not going to solve the problem (would help it).
He currently is in charge of the NRA and he is a nutbar IMO. And if I was a cop I would at least like to know that anybody who had a gun proved themselves worthy and also that if I were responding to something like let's say a domestic dispute issue that I could look up if there were guns in that house.
