So what’s your motive for posting such a lie?

I can relate. As an old drunk I go stock up at the liquor store every time there somebody is killed by a drunk driver.

Never know when they might want to outlaw booze again.

I guess standing on the graves of children to push gun control has the opposite effect, it strengthens the support of gun rights.

This and the NRA -- everyone sends in their annual dues -- and then they don't renew.

Blah blah blah.

Let's just be honest and agree that it is standing on the graves of children to sell guns and ammo.

Follow the money.

Translation...derp derp I have no clue what a ban actually means even though it's been spelled out a thousand times on this board.


Or in summary with extra estrogen....do it for the babies

We know how well the last alcohol ban worked out.

Oh, sure, this was an expected result. Gun people see all that is happening and it disturbs and scares them at the same time. When they see Trump, who would normally kiss the butts of the NRA, coming out and saying he will ban certain accessories and that he is open to looking at the current laws, that has to be of great concern to them.

Bet a lot of them are buying more guns and ammo too. Better get it while you can.

The gun industry sells guns everyday.

The anti-gun nuts come out when there are dead children.

Make no mistake, it's the anti-gun people that stand on the graves of children.
