I am not a Mitt Romney supporter.

But on this issue, he has not used a lot of weasel words.

I suspect he know he doesn’t have a chance otherwise.

Romney supported the Brady Bill and established a state AWB after the federal one expired.

...

His pro-life credentials are just as bad:

pro-choice in ‘94; pro-life in ‘01; choice ‘02; pro-life ‘04; choice ‘05; life in ‘06; then funded abortion in ‘06

“I suspect he know he doesn’t have a chance otherwise.”

At least not now when still in Primaries and needs our votes, but what’ll it be after we get him elected????

Don’t think Mitt’ll be a gun grabber, but he won’t be a tough defender either. Our loss will be the same.

True, but why would we believe the words of a man who said he was a "Severe" conservative Governor of MA and he has always been Pro-Life?

Remember, this is the man who supported the Brady Bill and implemented his OWN "Assault Weapons" ban.

He has used more than weasle words in the past, he has supported laws that have increased taxes and or fees on gunowners, has supported the Brady bill, has supported “assault weapons” bans. He has never defined what the Second Amendment means to him, when a politician says he supports the Second Amendment most of us think he defines it the same way we do. He apparently doesn’t believe that the Second Amendment applies to ALL American citizens as he supported legislation that would hamper the rights of Mass. citizens, he may even believe it’s more of a states rights issue than an individual God given right. Most likely he has no strong opinion, just pandering to whatever group he’s talking to.
