President Bush pardons two Tennessee moonshiners

Posted by R. Neal

No, seriously. One of the former moonshiners said he was surprised by the pardon but that he's looking forward to voting and buying a gun. The other said he could "almost be a Republican" after receiving the pardon from Bush.

See how excited this guy is at the thought of getting a gun? regardless of all the violent crimes of shootings and guns in the U.S. a criminal who gets a pardon will get his gun rights again so he can commit more crimes?
