Not true. The point is, he flip-flopped upon leaving MA and joining the campaign. He didn't run as a pro-lifer or NRA member while he was here.
No, Romney changed his mind on being pro-life well before he left Mass. You won’t find his signature on a pro-abort bill in Mass. But you will find his veto. On all of them.
Same thing with guns in Mass. He got a bill passed that was supported by the NRA and quite a few other pro-2nd amendment organizations.
I’ll freely admit that Romney’s position on gun control should be his biggest sticking point around here. Personally, it’s about priority #587 for me, so it really hasn’t been an issue. And no, I don’t think you should be able to purchase or own automatic weapons in this country. But I say that as someone who has lived in a city full of hoodrats who will go over the local WallyWorld, buy a gun, and shoot someone a few weeks later. A bunch of impulsive losers and not the kind of people I’d like to see owning that sort of thing. And I see the victims of their impulsiveness all the time in the trauma center.
