Romney and the Mass AWB..

[clublights]

I'm assuming that many of you like me.. have been ...wary... of Mr.Romney due to the Mass AWB during his tenure as Governor of that state....

Here are the facts from a Pro gun group in that state.

Posted in 2007 so I feel it is even more true then something that would have recently come out.

Looks like Mitt is not as anti gun as you may think.

I know I feel better about voting for him now.

Well, we know for sure he is not as anti as BHO.
The man has repeatedly stated the laws on the books need to be enforced and he is not in favor of any new laws..

Thanks for posting this. There is a lot of misinformation out there about Romney and the MA AWB.

Overcoming people's misconceptions is a hard thing to do. For example, Ronald Reagan was probably one of the most anti-gun presidents in our history...but he really didn't push that agenda on a national level like he did as governor of CA.

I don't think Romney will, either.

But you think Barack will? He didn't do jack about it in his first term and as awful as it was something tells me if he wanted to do anything it would have been in his first term as there's no way he could have predicted he would have a chance of winning a 2nd term due to the GOP putting forth such a weak candidate. To me, the whole 'Barry wants your guns' thing is just more fear mongering to drive votes.

He stated him self in the 2nd debate he wishes to reinstate the AWB ban.

Yeah, and if elected Romeny claims he will repeal Obamacare? ORLY? How so? Anyone actually thought about what that would take and how a president could do it? Either one is about as likely as the other if that candidate gets elected. We need to stop with all the BS scare tactics and examine the real issues. The hyperbole from both sides is deafening.

He doesn't have to repeal it. And, yes, that would take a lot of bipartisanship between the house and senate and isn't likely.

What he can do are issue waivers through executive order to all 50 states exempting them from the provisions of Obamacare.

On his first day in office, Mitt Romney will issue an executive order that paves the way for the federal government to issue Obamacare waivers to all fifty states. He will then work with Congress to repeal the full legislation as quickly as possible.

That's how he gets rid of Obamacare.

Gun politics is bad politics for any party. Even though the libs are very anti gun they've laid off the last decade because they lost a lot of male votes for being anti gun in the 90's.. Many democrats have said that they believe Gore lost the 2000 election because of gun politics. He came out in '99 after the columbine tragedy and tried to pass more gun legislation. They believe this lost him key votes in rural areas. Why do you think the AWB lapsed in 2004 without a fight? It's bad politics. Obama and Mitt won't touch it before the election. However, there is no way I'm going to feel safe about gun laws if BO gets a second term. He's got to go.

But that's ok, maybe after this one we can get some of the guys on this site to quit being dishonest about Romney's record on guns.
