Looking for articles linking Romney to gun control
Vanity

Posted on 08/30/2011 12:16:02 PM PDT by absolootezer0

Having a debate with a friend, who's usually quite conservative, a christian and pro-gun, yet for some reason he supports romney. I am doing my own research, just hoping someone can help me out and give me some sites relating to Romney being a gun grabber.

Here is all you need to know. Before Romney my (M)assachusetts FID card was permanent. Pay once, you had your card for life. After Romney I have to pay $100 every four years.

Enough said.

I don’t think you’ll find it. I don’t like Romney either but he supported the deportation of illegals and using the police to do it when he governed MA.
He didnt interfrre with gun ownership. He’s mainly a social liberal with his gay marriage and socialized medicine manure. That’s what killed the state.

Romney used to support gun control - Click

Mitt Romney says he is a supporter of gun rights and a fan of Ronald Reagan. But he didn't always tout those positions, a fact that John McCain uses to mock Romney in a new Internet ad. Romney took positions favorable to gun control in previous races in Massachusetts, a state with strict gun control laws.

I've always liked this site: romneyfacts.com

"We do have tough gun laws in Massachusetts; I support them. I won't chip away at them; I believe they protect us and provide for our safety." ... Romney in 2002 gov. debate, Boston Globe, 1/14/07

Put an issue like "gun control" within quotation marks, then add Romney to a search engine query box. Voila! He's a gun grabber.

Does he support Obamacare? If so, Romney is his man. You won’t be able to fix socialist stupid. Their magical thinking can only be cured through the school of hard knocks. He’ll have to watch the government kill a relative before he gets it.

YOU are wrong. He supported the ASSAULT WEAPON BAN. One of the dumbest, useless liberal stupid laws of all time.

Problem is you can find an article on Romney saying ANYTHING. He’s had so many different positions on so many different issues even a good search filter might not help you out. There needs to be a dedicated researcher charting an Romney Issues Map with multi-colored push-pins, diagrams, and a chronological index divided into For or Against by day.

Oh you’re right, I completely missed that. Thanks, for some reason, I thought it was someone else. The MA govs all seem alike.

he eventually came back with a “are you a one issue voter?”
uh, no, but since my friend’s status was about guns, that’s where i started. i proceded to remind him about romney’s support of universal healthcare, gay marriage and abortion. also open borders and amnesty for illegals.
