So much for you second amendment. Have fun playing cowboy where you are told to play. lol

Stinger missiles? I think that’s starting to push the limits as to what constitutes “keep and bare arms.� However, if there’s ambiguity among Constitutional scholars on this question, we can always amend the Constitution to remove all doubt.

Honestly, what about all this is not arbitrary? If armor-piercing rounds, why not stinger missiles? Are they not both arms?

WA, I wouldn’t say that becoming rich automatically eliminates a person from being qualified. It is a measure of achievement that many intelligent people have not achieved and not for want of trying. Neither does it necessarily imply moral or ethical corruption. Should we prefer someone who’s never succeeeded at anything? Someone like John Kerry, for instance? Hardly.

Armor piercing rounds? I don’t see how banning such ammunition would be consistent with the Second Amendment

Frankly, you could own a tank in your back yard for all I care. I certainly wouldn’t want to live next to you though.

I assume you feel the same way about any type of ammo, including armor piercing rounds? How about stinger missiles? You can carry them, after all.

Michael,

I assume you’ve decided that the social conservative branch of the American conservative movement isn’t that bad a thing? After all, that is where Romney has decided to cast his lot. Personally I consider them Christian Taliban Lite.

MKH: Now, you supported an assault weapons ban in Massachusetts. This tragedy is being used to push the renewal of the federal assault weapons ban. What would your stance be if that comes up again?

MR: Well, you know, the weapon used here was not an assault weapon, so I’m not sure what the relevance is. And, that’s what we have to recognize. The people who want to remove Second Amendment rights will look for everything they can. You know, if there’s a weapon that puts our police at risk, like machine guns, of course, then that’s something I would, of course, consider. But, look, we’ve gotta fundamentally recognize the need to protect the right to bear arms and the fact that there are people who are trying to remove that right inch by inch, and we’re gonna have to defend against that.

Notice how Romney never actually answers MKH’s question about his position on an assault weapons ban.

It’s funny to see Republican Presidential candidates who have long history of being moderates suddenly lurch to the right in order to pander to the party’s conservative base and yet are unable to answer some of the tougher questions such as an assault weapons ban.

It’s not that difficult of a question. You either support an assault weapons ban or you don’t. Personally, I feel that the Second Amendment bars the federal government from banning any type of gun–assault weapon or not.

Disagree with me or not, at least I’m willing to take a stand on this issue. Romney just ducks the question.

This man has no leadership skill we need. He’s just another republican crook.
