Romney signs off on permanent assault weapons ban

Governor Mitt Romney has signed into law a permanent assault weapons ban that he says will make it harder for criminals to get their hands on these guns.

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.

Like the federal assault weapons ban, the state ban, put in place in 1998, was scheduled to expire in September. The new law ensures these deadly weapons, including AK-47s, UZIs and Mac-10 rifles, are permanently prohibited in Massachusetts no matter what happens on the federal level.

We are pleased to mark an important victory in the fight against crime, said Lieutenant Governor Kerry Healey. The most important job of state government is ensuring public safety. Governor Romney and I are determined to do whatever it takes to stop the flood of dangerous weapons into our cities and towns and to make Massachusetts safer for law-abiding citizens.

The new law also makes a number of improvements to the current gun licensing system...

Interesting. It appears that Romney has already enacted more anti-gun legislation than Obama.

I've always thought that any firearm could be used to kill people and destroy things.  Romney would need to have a major attitude adjustment for me to vote for him, or anyone else who harbors such liberal logic.

On the other hand if Romney were somehow to get the Republican nomination, I'll not be shooting myself in the foot by voting for a third party spoiler.  Our country hangs in the balance; we can always argue about what is and what isn't an assault weapon, after we save the country from the assault party (Dumycrats).
