But I do not support any new legislation, and I do support the right of individuals to bear arms, whether for hunting purposes or for protection purposes or any other reasons. That’s the right that people have. That statement is as strong a statement of a pro-gun position as ANY candidate.

Bravo frickin Sierra!!!!

Saying he "does not support" any new legislation means absolutely NOTHING. It's already been stated that he went along to get along in Mass. His statements in no way make me believe that he won't do it again on the federal level. If you think a democrat congress isn't going to try to reintroduce an AWB you are living in a fairy tale land.

The ONLY way Mitt will get my vote is if he loudly and clearly PROMISES to VETO any new gun control legislation that comes across his desk. Otherwise....it's a no sale, because it's that important.

No sitting GOP president is going to sign anti-gun legislation if he wants a second term.
