Republicans want your guns

Apparently, the Republican Party of Cuyahoga Co. is planning to adopt a new platform tomorrow, which includes this little gem:
“Oppose the efforts to curtail constitutional home rule in such areas as…gun control"
Apparently they aren't pleased by the local pre-emption passed by those awful downstate hick Republicans; not that local rights are a bad thing, but they should be devolved to the individual level.. Now, they don't have the draft document up on their website, at least the public portion, so my information is being filtered through Buckeye Firearms Association. But for Republicans to go anti-gun is ultimately a repudiation of the principles the party claims to stand for. Not that that is old news, mind you. But this is a particularly egregious bullet through the metatarsal. With a pro-gun Democrat in the governor's mansion, and a resurgent Libertarian Party, there are fewer reasons to put up with RINO-dom.
