LOL When is the last time anybody saw dirty mags at the grocery store? Is that still a thing anywhere in the US?bicycle_seat_sniffer said:

Oh, I thought it was about lobbyists?
“And by grocery store, I mean the liquor store where I spend the bulk of my salary. Anyone want a drink?”bicycle_seat_sniffer said:
The mom and pop liquor store still does....heck the probably have VHS tapes too
That's part of it also.
Based on polls, it's not a one to one ratio. NRA states they have 5 million members. That leaves 245 million people in the U.S. over the age of 18. (each one could give $1 and it would be $45 million more than the NRA receives in membership fees)
It sounds like you are completely, and I mean completely, out of touch with reality. Its like you have zero understanding on how politics in America works.
It sounds like you are completely clueless. The same things that give the NRA power, is the same things that an anti-NRA group can do. They have more numbers and therefor more money. Which equals power.
This means nothing to me. But, nice try.
Do you think the Nazi followers in this country are a cult? Do they have the same power as the NRA or gun owners?
No, they probably wouldn't. It's unlikely because they don't suffer from the same motivations.
Are you saying the fear of being shot in a school, movie theater, or mall is not a motivation?
I would donate, but not out of fear. I'm not afraid of being shot in a school, movie theater or mall. I'm far more likely to be killed in a car accident, given the odds based on historical data. It's not fear that motivates me to solve the issue. It's being sick of seeing these incidents happen at the frequency that they happen here in the US, when the rest of the world doesn't have near the same frequency of them.

well that clearly infringes on a person's right to kill someone and get away with it.
Most logical and helpful ways will never get passed because NRA and people like them will drum up some BS fear tactics on it as well as why it's a terrible idea.
Good thing our elected leaders are working day and night to stop these tragedies.
Perhaps this one should go there too:
Did he shoot someone?
It's almost as if you didn't read my post.
If this police officer was a trained teacher, he never would have shot himself.
Change it back to include the word "school," just leave out the "yay!" I know it was a tongue-in-cheek way of reminding folks that none of these incidents are acceptable but that was likely the offending word.
Ah yes. But didn't you try to tell me that intent is a very important part of people being killed by drunk drivers? He had no intention of firing his weapon and he never pointed it at anyone in particular? Was this an accident?
Open up!
