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.
I think he made a mistake trying to get folksy about his past hunting. He clearly did hunt, enjoyed it, doesn't oppose it, considers himself a hunter, but it is not his #1 past-time.
Clearly, whether or not one hunts is not the important issue IMO. Support for the 2A is the crucial thing.
On the 31st anniversary of the Gun Owners Action League, Governor Romney declared May 7, 2005 as The Right to Bear Arms Day in Massachusetts to honor the right of decent, law-abiding citizens to own and use firearms in defense of their families, persons, and property and for all lawful purposes, including the common defense.
