Romney said he would support a more limited AWB, so yes, he would sign one. I agree that’s wrong, but we are talking about a limited number of weapons.

Since none of our candidates are calling to lift the ban on machine guns, it’s just a matter of degree.

Let me ask you what is more important to you — the ability to purchase a few more assault weapons, or the right to carry your weapon with you in public?

Fred Thompson said he supported allowing states to ban their citizens from carrying guns on public college campuses — a ban that exists in my state and prevented people with valid CCW from having their guns with them on the day of the Virginia Tech shooting.

Since then, while the state talks about more gun control, banning weapons from people who simply sought the care of a therapist at one time or another in their lives, the teachers at Virginia Tech are secretly begging legislators to give them the right to have weapons in their desks, so when the next shooter breaks into their room they have a better option than standing in the way of the bullets.

So, which is worse — my candidate who would prevent you from buying a couple weapons that if you wanted you would have already bought, or Fred Thompson who would support my state banning you from having a gun on a college campus to defend yourself against the Tech shooter?

You , just like Romney , are completely uneducated on the gun issue . Go educate yourself before coming on here and trying to B.S. gun owners on what infringments are acceptable .

So enlighten us , and tell us what weapons should be banned and why ? Which guns does Romney want to ban and why ?
