The interviewer keeps interrupting him. He is for the 2nd amendment for personal protection or hunting. Just because he is trying to answer all the other circumstances that may come to his desk as president you claim he is somehow bad? I am all for second amendment rights as well but I would prefer a president that looks at every situation rather than just saying okay let everyone have whatever they want. The big one for me was personal protection and hunting. Governor Romney you have my vote.
@shananagans5 the point i was trying to make was that a total was wholely unecessary and that a comparmise could have been reached. believe me, if i could have things my way then all gun laws would be scrapped. but i live in the UK and here you can draw funny looks and obnoxious questions jut from looking at the wikipedia page for the .17HMR round. so i’ve gotten used to argueing for a comparmise on gun laws.
@thenoobcannon Why even register a type of gun that isn’t used in crime enough to even study properly. “Assault” rifles are so seldom used in crime you cant even get a statistically significant number on them. I was a young liberal criminology student when the 1st ban was proposed. I started doing some research and I was stuned to find out gun laws don’t work. Now, 20 yrs later and outgrowing the liberal thing & seeing bans in the UK, Australia, its even more evident gun laws dont lower crime
@vaguninfo what was the point in outright banning “assult wepons”. why not just have a licencing and registration system for them? banning things never works (look at drugs and alcohol prohibition). the best thing to do is to regulate somthing so that only the people who would use it responsibly can acess it.
I wish politicians actually took the time to inform themselves about guns. He mentioned “Lethality”. Doesn’t he realise that most hunting rifles are much more powerful weopons than most assault type weopons. Just put the rounds next to eachother and its plain to see that a 30-06round is much more deadly than a .223 or a 7.62 X 39. Just a thought but its obvious to me!
Thank you Meet the Press for allowing this moron to hang himself on public television. Most politicians at least refer to prohibited persons as felons and the mentally ill, he just called them “the crazies”. How P.C. of the statesman.
I’d like to see him use that language in a speech given to pychologists and psyciatrists. “I have a long record in helping to reduce the stigma of crazies and support the work you do with the crazies! Vote for me, please!”

Romney is a newly caught fish on the dock….unhooked and dropped….
Keep in mind that this clown claimed in ’08 that he was a lifelong hunter yet he never had a hunting license prior to 2008.

Bump ~ Romny is a RHINO of the worst kind. He? is no more pro gun than the average BATF agent.

Romney is going straight to hell when he dies. Shame too…he tries to be a goody goody in his personal life and it’ll all be for nothing.
Hes half-assed when it comes to guns. No assault weapons=no me.
Ha yeah so obama takes our guns instead? Hell no he better not pick romney
I can’t wait till McCain picks him as VP, they are going down HARD.
Obama 08.
RIP!
He was for the assault weapons ban, I’m not surprised, and I’m not sure if I can really blame him. I use assault weapons to keep the mormons away!
In this application I would call them “defense weapons” however.

Mitt is a Bitch.
Gun Owners for Ron Paul!
What a fool. The 2A isn’t for ‘sporting and hunting,’ it is the reset button to protect ourselves from tyrants like you.
Noli Me Calcare!
