My husband is an NRA member, a strong supporter of the 2nd amendment, owns and uses guns and has never hunted in his life. Big deal. We’re electing a president not a big game hunter.
Uh...it’s not just about hunting.
Did you not see his response to the Assault Weapons Ban back in 1994?
Yeah, ok...vote for a Republican from Massachusetts...see what you get.
And I’m guessing your husband doesn’t go around pretending to be a hunter.
I agree with you in the sense that I don’t care if he has ever hunted a day in his life. Again I do NOT dislike Romney.
But if he claims he was a “lifelong hunter” and has only hunted twice you have to wonder what other parts of his resume he is “embellishing”.
I think the point is that Romney lied.
He's a gun-grabber.
Supported the federal Assault Weapons Ban in 1994 and 2002, supported and signed into law a state AWB in Massachusetts.
Said he wasn't with groups like the NRA before joining the NRA as a life member right before running for president.
(I should note that Fred's a Republican and a staunch defender of the Bush Administration, so this was not meant in a mocking way).
Did your hubby supprt the Brady ban?
True. I'd just feel better if I knew that Romney truly grasps that the 2nd amendment is about defense, not hunting.
I'd feel better if I knew that about any candidate, for that matter.
