Anti-Gun Senator Shoots Intruder
Long time Anti-Gun Advocate State Senator R.C. Soles, 74, shot one of two intruders at his home just outside Tabor City , N.C. about 5 p.m. Sunday, the prosecutor for the politician's home county said.

{——SNIP——}

The Senator, who has made a career of being against gun ownership for the general public, didn't hesitate to defend himself with his own gun when he believed he was in immediate danger and he was the victim.

{——SNIP——}

It has prompted some to ask if the Senator believes his life and personal safety is more valuable than yours or mine.

His actions would seem to speak for themselves.

Problem with the story is that he really isn't very anti-gun. His NRA-PVF ratings before the shooting were:

• 1998 - B
• 2000 - B+
• 2002 - B+
• 2004 - A
• 2006 - A
•2008 - A

I think some "Pro 2-A" lawmakers get lower ratings.
