Look what happened after Sandy Hook. There was talk, understandably, about gun control. Said talk led to cries of they're coming to take our guns. Said cries led to people running out to buy more guns. Said people running out to buy more guns led to more money in the pockets of NRA leaders who sell guns.
What a sad post! If only you knew what you were talking about instead of merely talking to hear your head rattle. The leaders of NRA do not sell guns. Guns are sold mostly in sporting goods stores, and I would imagine the leaders of NRA have plenty to do without thinking about running a store. This is how foolish and untrue stories get started.
How does the NRA have a financial interest if they never see any of the money? Do you even listen to yourself?!?!?!!
Those who support the NRA in some cases make their dues money selling guns. No big conspiracy there. Not a big deal. The overwhelming vast majority do not.
There is no story here outside of the talk of stripping people of their Constitutional rights set them in motion to show what they thought about that idea.
I joined the NRA last month. I have no desire to buy a gun. I likely never will. I'll never sell one. Odds arent high that I will ever shoot one again.
Take the largest "donor", Midway USA for example. It donated $7 millions a year. Now that is because Midway USA set up a NRA round up at their check out. Customers have the option to round up their payment to the next dollar and Midway will see that money goes to NRA.
$7 million tell you that NRA has the support of lawful gun owners. It's not the big corporations, or the big bankers. It's the people.

I'll wait
The NRA has no interest in mass shootings. It means they need to worry about nuts like you on the internet.
We have heard from police chiefs in NYC and Chicago regarding the ease with which illegal guns flow into those cities, they know first hand. The NRA is complicit in supporting loose gun laws in those states. I wouldn't say they support mass shootings but they don't seem to have any issue with the easy flow of guns out of places like Georgia, their primary interest is in gun sales not safety.

And the gun grabbers have a vested interest in these shootings too.
The more shootings the more talk about shootings.
the more talk about shootings the more crazy people get ideas
the more ideas they get the more shootings there will be
the more shootings, the more talk the more talk the more lather in the public to get them thar guns.
Face it, gun grabbers need more dead bodies.
I said the above in 2013.
its clear this is the case.
not one single thing has been suggested by gun grabbers to deal with the issues of mental illness in this country.

You do know (or are NOT aware) that most city police chiefs are POLITICAL appointees.
MOST mayors are dems. If you go against the mayor, you loose your job.
MOST "on the front line" police OFFICERS think differently.
