from the quote (and BTW thanks I had not seen that before)

In the interview, when asked about my views of “assault weapons,” I was talking about true assault weapons – fully automatic firearms.

I dunno about you, but this is not any different. Semi-autos are OK for the peasants, but only the police and military are allowed full auto? His position still sucks, and he is still a gun grabber, but he just shifted his position to a different class of firearm.

I don’t know if I’d go so far as to call him a gun grabber, but I definitely agree that he shouldn’t be on the board. It’s pretty clear to me that the GOA soundbite is a misrepresentation of what he was trying to say. The problem is, I don’t like the corrected version of what he was trying to say all that much either.

He should be dropped for stupidity if nothing else.But just because he said something idiotic doesn't mean it's NRA policy.
