Thank you... The Second Amendment covers my right to own an AR15 or to own a Barrett 82A1 50 Caliber assault weapon... I could even own a fully auto model if I want to pay the tax and pass the FBI and ATF inquiries. mitt, by embracing an AWB, shows that he is indeed an advocate for gun control. I will not vote for a man that tramples on such a fundamental right... a RIGHT that the Founders felt so important that they were compelled to put it right after the Freedom of Speech and Assembly.

The AWB was passed in *1998* in Massachusetts, and not by Mitt Romney.

The NRA supported the bil that Romney signed, and here is an article correcting the record on it:
http://www.nraila.org//Legislation/Read.aspx?ID=1149
“Representing the greatest set of firearm law reforms since the passage of the Commonwealth`s worst in the nation gun laws, S.2367 is a breath of fresh air for law abiding gun owners. Governor Romney is expected to sign the bill into law later this week.

While not perfect by any means, this bill represents a step forward for gun owners in Massachusetts.”

“Myth: Some headlines claimed that the legislature voted to expand the ban on the sale of the same 19 guns that the federal government has banned.

Fact: The guns are already banned in Massachusetts . The legislature only voted to clarify the definition of so-called “assault weapons,” but made no changes to the number of guns included.

Myth: The gun ban was extended.

Fact: Our state`s gun ban was not due to disappear, nor will it become invalid if the federal ban sunsets in September.

Myth: The legislature somehow “won over” gun-rights supporters by including reforms.

Fact: NRA and Gun owners` Action League (GOAL) had made it very clear to the legislature that we would not give up any ground. NRA and GOAL supported this bill because it did not ban any guns, and because it made much-needed reforms. “

Remember the first rule of Romney supporters: It's always somebody else's fault.

There are other rules, but that one always applies.
