Another day on City-Data forums...
If I call you dumb, you will know it when I do because it will come as a direct personal attack.

I think people who buy into the NRA are no better than a cheap lobbyist on capital hill, paying membership fees is so dumb, because when the government comes down and begins restricting things, that will be when the "fat lady" has sung, the membership dues will have been paid for nothing. And I will love it.

And who knows, If certain things are restricted, it will mean the government has won, and the NRA has lost, and people who pay their fees will see that it is a hollow organization with no "real powers" at all.

Well, that not my or any other firearm owners fault. He killed the person who let him have that access. A gun owner would have killed him. We wouldn't feel sorry for his goon ass like his mommy did. He took her life to show thanks.

Well, that's kinda what it seemed like to me.

Now, myself, I really don't give a crap about the NRA, but I do understand they have probably been one of the few obstacles to the complete redaction of the second amendment. So, before you go and label tens of millions of Americans as "stupid", maybe you should understand their point-of-view.

But that wouldn't be as easy, I understand.

It will mean you lost too. You like all the rest of the liberals are just too stupid to realize for yourself.

Many firearm owners don't even belong to the NRA.

Stop being overly defensive.
- A firearms owner, who has his gun double locked, with ammunition locked separately, as a requirement by Texas to allow fostering/adoption... I don't whine about it because I understand why it might be necessary.

Too busy trying to ban guns and arming Secret Service with Sig Sauer P-229 357SIGs and FN P90 5.7X28mm sub machineguns to protect your girls that no one would even want to harm in the first place.

You might get cooties from touching one.

Lanza's mother owned a whole whopping five firearms. I'd hardly call her well armed.

She was a newb at best.
