5. I think hell would freeze over before the NRA does the mea culpa.

Their tactic of silence for the moment could work, I admit it. But given the way this year has gone, wow, one more mass shooting between now and Congress reconvening in January will really hit that organization hard, especially if it thinks silence is golden.

And a note to all you CUckoos monitoring this site: While I have no love for the NRA, I don't want to see another normally peaceful place turned into a shooting gallery so the gun lobby loses its influence over Congress; that's just sick. The gun lobby should have lost its influence a long time ago — like when Reagan was shot.
