NRA membership has gone way up. Narrative went from ''Never Again'' like it should be, to ''Lets ban guns'' agenda pretty quick. Not coincidence that david hoggs dad is ex fbi, that cameron ainksly(if i spelled it right) who's been one of the main figure heads of the main kid group having dinners and meeting with Ohr, Fusion GPS wife.

Too much of the agenda is showing for a gun grab rather than an actually debate on things like mental health and the complete incompetence of law enforcement in Florida and the FBI

Ban guns is not the same thing as gun regulation.

The most "liberal" countries in the world also have some of the highest gun ownership rates.  Norway, Sweden, France, Austria, Canada are very near the top.

There are some leftists that do claim that banning guns is the answer, but they're a minority.  I've seen people from both sides claim that Australia banned guns.  They didn't.  

Here's one such gun lover in Australia:

17 kids died because no body did there stopping this nut.FBI didn't do anything.police didn't stop
The cop stood out side and there was other guards with gunsThey didn't stop it.dont blame the NRA my guns never killed nobody
In Chicago 50 people are shot dead every week from illegal hand gun's liberals don't say anything

50 people every week is an exaggeration.  Even 1 is too many, so I'm not excusing it.  But the actual numbers are closer to 12.  

Liberals talk all the time.

If you look at that sheet, it was 49 people shot last week.

350 shot this year

149 in February.

This is just shot, not shot and killed. Those numbers are also still high. 11 shot and killed last week, 67 for the year. So 67 in 2 months. That is almost 10 people shot and killed a week. Otherwise its like 44 shot a week, which is much close to 50 than 12. 12 is close if you are talking shot and killed, but I would like to think being shot in general is not a good thing. I doubt those 30+ people being shot but lived are fine being ignored for stat purposes in showing the city as being safer than it is.
