Dear Mr Romney,

It was with some concern that I heard you quoted as saying the following:

...the [Assault Weapons] law that we signed in Massachusetts was a combination of efforts both on the part of those that were for additional gun rights and those that opposed gun rights,...Where there are opportunities for people of reasonable minds to come together and find common ground, that’s the kind of legislation I like. (http://www.nbcuniversal.presscentre.com/content/detail.aspx?ReleaseID=11599&NewsAreaId=2)

I was tentatively planning on voting for you in November, but I cannot and will not vote for any candidate who supports increasing the number of gun control laws in effect in any form. I strongly urge you to clarify your position immediately.

Sincerely,
[Slings and Arrows]

To the point and clear, Slings. I appreciate your integrity.

Romney should have to work for your vote; he shouldn’t have the impression that it’s his because you have no place else to go, and that he can, therefore, ignore you and move to the left.

Excellent letter, FRiend!

Well-stated, FRiend. I am certain you will receive a response. (In my experience there is *always* a response.) It will be interesting (and telling) to see if it is a placating and non-commital one. Either way, please share.
