Though Mass already had an Assault Weapons Ban in place it was set to expire in 2009. When Mitt was gov he signed a law that made the AWB PERMANENT. As a concession, Mass gun owners got their LTC extended from 4 to 6 years and a 200% price increase for that license to $100. Really pro gun piece of legislation there.“Deadly assault weapons have no place in Massachusetts,” Romney said, at a bill signing ceremony on July 1 with legislators, sportsmen’s groups and gun safety advocates. “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.”" Mitt Romney, July 2004.
Edited to add. He's a RINO who supports Assault weapon bans and had his own version of Obamacare that he's quite proud of, even though its failing miserably.
I won't be voting for him in the primaries, and frankly, if we're going to have another 4 years of obama or 4 years of RINO leadership, I'd rather let Obama take the blame. With Romney at least, looks like we'll be getting the same stance on a lot of things.
Gotta get out and vote in those primaries!
