Tisei takes anti-2A stance

[Mike S]

U.S. Congressional candidate and former state senate member Richard Tisei aligned himself with President Obama in a recent debate with incumbent John Tierney stating that he is for reinstating a federal assault weapons ban, from the article in the Glob:

The two found some agreement on other issues.

Both said they would support reauthorization of a federal assault weapons ban and both backed restrictions on high capacity ammunition clips.

Well, that should help him drop the "Tea Partier" label that's been given to him by the Tierney campaign.

 

[Dench]

yep, just keeping closing your eyes voting for (R) hoping things will change

 

[Terrence]

Both candidates suck.

 

[ntomsw]

I see a bigger problem with: "High capacity ammunition CLIPS."

 

[yanici]

Damn!! Doubledamn. I was at his headquarters making hundreds of phone calls for him. I feel like a used whore.

 

[ChevyGuy91]

Well then, I am glad the R's are here to save us.

 

[Dench]

Damn!! Doubledamn. I was at his headquarters making hundreds of phone calls for him. I feel like a used whore.

burned!

 

[ntomsw]

I do not necessarily think they will re instate the AWB, but them constantly talking about it, doesn't make me feel any better.

MA already has a AWB. Why do they have to push their regressive, anti-freedom agenda on people that want nothing to do with Massachusetts?

 

[jasons]

If you don't vote for Tisei, you're voting for socialism.

 

[Dench]

another politician that wants to limit the constitution. hooray! the 4th amendment is already completely out the window, the 2nd is on its way out. 1A is next.

**** republicans. **** democrats.

 

[yanici]

Next email I get from his staff asking fo something, I'll let them know that he's a sellout. They email me all the time letting me know the next event/etc. We gunowners are treated like unclean lepers. F" EM ALL!

 

[Knuckle Dragger]

But Tisei has a 100% GOAL/NRA rating!

 

[ntomsw]

Don't get me started on GOAL. I'll get banned in 2 seconds.

Yeah, but he's one of the good gun grabbers like Mitt Romney. Now stop thinking and open your checkbook.

 

[That Guy]

Can someone explain - in a serious manner, please - where all this renewed AWB talk is coming from? The thing didn't affect crime the first time, crime didn't skyrocket when it was lifted, but all of a sudden I am hearing talk of it all over the place. WTF? Why, all of a sudden, nearly ten years after the last bill expired, are we seeing a push for a new one?

I assume this is all just knee-jerk reactionary foolishness relating to the few high profile shootings in the last year?

I would guess the few high profile shootings that you said. Colorado, the one yesterday, I think there was 1 more, etc. Total BS, but I am sure that is their thinking.

 

[atilla]

with a native-american fury of the war on women i'd like to abort any future talk of an assault weapons ban.

bain.

kenya.

 

[ntomsw]

The fact of his great rating with GOAL blows my mind. This isn't the 1st time either.

 

[jasons]

If the "new" GOAL still believes in those ratings, then I will never join or give them money. If GOAL thinks the ratings are BS, they need to pull them down.

Well, considering who posted the OP I think GOAL should get at least a little slack.

What Mr Tisei does in his private life is his own business.

Was an "assault weapon" used in any of those?
