Agree~~ First OFF no one is suggesting any ban, much less taking citizen's firearms away!!

The NRA talking points have been exposed as their TRUE agenda>> NRA's interests is solely to SELL firearms.. which has ZERO ( 0%) to do with 2nd amendment .... Finally there's an enlightened younger generation GET it. NRA is proclamations have NOTHING to do with 2nd amendment..IT's ALL about promoting fear + ignored the GUN MANUFACTURERS!! In short.. It's influences Elections ( bullying politicians) in order too get lawmakers to block or make law that allows GUN SALES and make sure Regulations don't happen!! !!!

IMHO.. NRA has transformed in the past 45 years into a " Terrorist Organization"!! Their Stance has Zero interest to reduce ability to bare arms nor prtect those innocents.. Give everybody unlimited GUNS!! .. regardless of capability to responsibility.. Instead blames LE when it goes wrong!! NRA at this point must be HELD RESPONSIBLE for what " INNOCENT AMERICAN INNOCENTS LOSING LIVES" and YES!! Blood son their hands!!

This issue and $$$ backing Gun Manufacturers + NRA who is suppose to represent Gun owners???? actually are paying multi millions $$$$$ that countermand 95% of American Citizens!! HELLO!!! When will CITIZENS vote these internal Lobbyists OUT!! Free Politicians from their grasp!! ??????

It may never happen immediately, however it's obvious.. the KIDS directly affected are SCREAMING out!! When will Politicians listen and DO SOMETHING PRODUCTIVE to make a difference.!!

Extreme Gun Huggers always suggest Blah Blah does NOT protect ALL.. blah blah..No regulations and baring right to have Firearms would have stopped blah blah !! There will never ever be ratification of violence .. BUT for Crying OUT Loud.. Reductions of senseless loss of LIFE MUST be considered!!Well, not according to "GUN HUGGERS"!!

Why an exchange?

One is a inanimate object and the other is a belief.

One is a weapon with no other purpose than to kill.

Can you say the same about Islam???? or Christianity?

You don't get to choose for me, what I get to protect myself with.
McDonald v. Chicago
The Dick Act

Brush up on the fight you got ahead of you. Especially if you are going to threaten me, my family and my property like that. It will create a war. A bloody war.

If there is a ban on Islam, how is it going to flourish? BTW-There is no ban on Islam in the US.
