You’re claiming Romney understood what “assault weapon ban” meant and then forgot about two seconds later?
Does all that spinning make you dizzy?
No. You seemed to be (I have to say that because it’s hard to tell exactly what your argument is) saying that because Romney said he signed an “Assault Weapons Ban”, I was incorrect in pointing out that the bill actually was a pro-gun bill.
So I pointed out that Russert used the same terminology, and it made sense that Romney would use that same name.
The problem is that it was a “ban” that actually left the state with fewer banned weapons than previously. So I guess in fact it’s still a “ban”, but the bill “unbanned” some weapons.
I guess if you decided to re-write the 1934 law, and removed some of the weapons from that bill, but left others in, and passed the measure, you could still call it a “gun control bill”, even though it’s passage would be pro-gun.
