In the Oct. 16 presidential debate between President Barack Obama and GOP challenger W. Mitt Romney, when the president dropped the pretense of being neutral on restricting gun rights with a key assist from moderator Candy Crowley, hostess of the CNN program “State of the Nation.”

Brazen anti 2nd Amendment statements?

Audacity? Yep.

The president used one of his lifelines: “Candy?”

Love that line!

Make no mistake, no difference in obama and Romney on gun control. Both are in the Brady Bunch camp.

That’s nutty talk.

Romney is not our friend but he isn’t our enemy. OBAMA is our enemy and a second term will allow him to accomplish with impunity what he would have liked to do in his first.

Thanks for the reminder. While you're at it, why not give me a nice paper cut and pour lemon juice on it?

You are absolutely right, but only one of them called for AWB reinstitution.

On a sidenote, O reffered to civilian rifles as "automatics." Then R said automatics were already illegal. Neither, apparently are well schooled on anything besides hype.

“Yeah. Too bad Romney already banished assault weapons in Massachusetts when governor.”

No he didn’t. He banned semi-automatic guns based on certain characteristics. Still stupid but not an assault gun ban. By definition, assault weapons are selective fire. Those are illegal under NFA and FOPA.

Have you looked at gun laws in Chicago?

That is what Obama wants.

Romney is better than Obama on this issue.

That is not true.
Gun rights organizations all prefer Romney over Obama.

From this article: “For his part, Romney got caught up in the law he signed in Massachusetts that banned so-called “assault weapons.” It is a position that Romney took with the cooperation of the National Rifle Association because it loosened other gun restrictions.”

I’d like to know more about those other gun restrictions, but this does say the ban was coordinated with NRA with purpose.

An already unpopular and increasingly oppressive government attempting to grab the guns of Americans (colonists) in order to limit their ability to resist... where have we heard that before?

Lexington & Concord!

And what did that result in?

A revolution!

I’ve been telling FR for months about Gov.Romney’s record in Massachusetts. He is a national socialist in his political beliefs, having in the past described himself as the “anti-Reagan”.

The problem with having to choose between the lesser of two evils is determining which is lesser. We already know BHO2 is corrupt and incompetent; what do we expect from a lesser evil who is competent and honest?
