Their goal is the banning of private firearm ownership some time in the distant future by generating seemingly useless feel good laws that evebntually accumulate to ban firearms. the unfortunate thing is they sacrifice lives today to achieve their goal tomorrow.

You'd think that if strict laws don't significantly reduce the downstream violence from gangs and drugs some other strategy might be considered. Bet they all know someone who buys illegal drugs to support the violence they abhor. Be sure to thank all your friends who buy illegal drugs for subsidizing the central source of violence.

Well its the laws against drugs that create the market that are run by gangs and the violence that comes from it...

Case in point how crime rates just crashed after this nation repealed Prohibition..

"to play off people's fear about shooting deaths" You must keep your head in the sand.

EVERY TIME there is bad shooting indecent the anti-gunners try to pass MORE unaffected laws.

Attacking weapons that weren't even used in the shooting.

Calling EVERY semi-automatic rifle an "assault weapon"

The can't wait for the blood to try before getting up on their soap boxes.

Yep, break up the gun sellers cartel!

Remember the good ole days, When they used 6 shot 38"s, with a short barrel, and you had to aim at something to hit it. As apposed to punks now with 15-18 shot autos that just spray bullets at just anyone. Ah, I miss those days.

The NRA does not need to go. Freedom is speech is still the law of the land, for now at least. They are able to exist just like La Raza gets to exist.

It is always human nature, to have the tactical advantage.


The entire reason, We The People were to have a tactical advantage over those with the power and dead set on oppressing us.
