[QUOTE="Billybob, post: 1769951, member: 1294"] [JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) Running for the Senate in Massachusetts, Mitt Romney once assured voters in a state with strong gun-control laws: "I don't line up with the NRA." Now the likely Republican presidential nominee, Romney will headline the National Rifle Association's annual convention Friday and assure tens of thousands of gun-rights activists that he's squarely on their side. Massachusetts quadrupled its gun-licensing fee while Romney was governor. He also signed a 2004 law that made permanent a ban on assault-type weapons, though it was coupled with measures backed by gun-rights groups, such as a lengthening of the firearm license period from four to six years and the creation of an appeals board for people seeking to restore their gun licenses. As he was considering his first presidential run in 2006, Romney signed up for a lifetime membership in the National Rifle Association.] [url]http://news.yahoo.com/romney-courts-gun-rights-group-presidential-bid-190551661.html;_ylt=ApNAbZLStDHDj6wVFWGLWW6s0NUE;_ylu=X3oDMTNha20xN2NmBG1pdAMEcGtnA2ViZWM0Y2YwLTgwYjktMzlhOS1iNzRjLTEzMGYzYjgxYzk0YQRwb3MDMwRzZWMDbG5fQVBfZ2FsBHZlcgM3YzUxZGI4MS04NGQ3LTExZTEtYmZlOS1mMzcxMzI5NzRiYzE-;_ylv=3[/url] [/QUOTE]
