This last paragraph from the OP is a bit insane. This is the kind of thinking that makes gun nuts go crazy and dive into paranoia and conspiracy theories. This thinking is how the NRA and the republican party are able to tell people crazy things like the government is coming for their guns, or as soon as the democrats are in charge they're gonna get rid of the second amendment. Makes paranoid gun people even crazier. So please just stop with your crazy talk. Guns are not the reason we have freedom in America. That's insane. Our laws and our institutions are the reason we have freedom. The less power the NRA has the better. They have no interest in the well being of America or in American lives. They only care about their own power which is solidified by the proliferation of guns throughout society. Hence why the only solution they or republicans (who follow them blindly) ever have to gun violence is more guns! That's like the sugar industry saying to fight the obesity epidemic by feeding people even more sugar, or solving a cities traffic problems by putting even more cars on the road. Just plain stupid and dangerous. |
The NRA has been around since the 1870s, and gun massacres are only really a recent phenomenon.
The VAST majority of gun crime in the USA is gang vs. gang. For example: Chicago. Chicago tries to blame NRA owners in Indiana for the gun crime but that's bullcrap.
