"We are captives, the majority here, of the NRA. To hell with the NRA!

The more guns 'LAW ABIDING CITIZENS' have the less a dirt bags will
have
to carry out dirt deeds!


**How's that working for ya? Let's see:

http://www.nationmaster.com/graph/cr...p-crime-murder...

There's the US at #8, with 0.0279271/1,000 people. Now, where's the next
nearest Western, developed nation?

Here it is. Down at #19, with 0.00534117/1,000 people. Can the Swiss
carry
concealed guns around the streets? Nope. In fact, no other Western,
developed nation allows it's people to carry concealed guns around the
streets. Only in the US. In fact, the Swiss, like all the other Western,
devloped nations have very tough, sane and homogenous gun control laws.
By
an amazing coincidence, the US also has the highest (by a very
considerable
margin) homicide rate, via the use of firearms, of any Western, developed
nation.



It's not the gun you ass, it's the criminal mind that puts thought into
action


**Yadda, yadda, yadda. You suck up that **** shovelled to you by the NRA.
It's working real well for you.

NOT!

The stats are from the FBI and they have been the same regardless of
administrations.


***WTF are on about?

The NRA does not run the government, they just keep
reminding folks of the reason the 2nd amendment was included and how
many other rights have been chipped away.


**No. The NRA acts in the political system to ensure that the gun
manufacturers have their needs served (to sell as many guns as they can), by
whatever means they find necessary. The NRA bullies and cajoles to ensure
that occurs. The NRA has employed primitive, but effective methods to
brainwash large segments of the US population to believe that the NRA and
the Second Amendment are necessary to their well-being. The NRA is pure
evil. They have zero interest in the long term well-being of the US. They
are acting for purely commercial reasons. This was not always the case. The
NRA was once a noble and decent organisation, which cared for the welfare of
the working man. Sometime in the 1960s, their purpose became perverted and
twisted.

Shame on you for not being more circumspect.
