Not only did Governor Mitt-Witt sign off on a permanent assault weapons ban, he was also in the process of having legislation drafted to ban automatic transmissions, as the death rate on Massachusetts highways clearly demanded that action be taken.

(just kidding, but you never know, Romney might buy into that failed logic too)

FUMR!!!!

I will not vote for that POS and no amount of guilt tripping or boogeyman pimping will change my mind.

Who says you can’t hunt with a M4? I have one that I hunt everything from squirrels and groundhogs to deer with. It came with a .223 upper when I bought it. I have since added uppers in 6.8SPC and .22 Long Rifle.

The 6.8SPC fires a .277 caliber bullet (.270) and it will drop a whitetail deer in it’s tracks as it did three times this past season. This was the first time I have used a AR15 platform to hunt big game with and I’m hooked. Very light and maneuverable, flat shooting, hard hitting, what’s not to love!

Ahh yes, the Scary-Looking weapons ban..

"These guns are not made for recreation or self-defense. They are instruments of destruction with the sole purpose of hunting down and killing people."

Wrong, Mitt. They are self-defense against the abuses of power of an out-of-control government. They are much more precise in targeting than the alternative, IEDs.

“And SANTORUM voted for the Lautenberg Amendment.”

If true that needs to be shouted from the rooftops. Conservative my @$$.
