Gun Control & RKBA

(11,417 posts)a bunch of noise. As far as laws, there is hardly any lobby for people who don't want more guns. Gunners have the NRA and ALEC and a right wing Supreme Court.
Our legislators are bullied by the gun lobby with threats of losing an election. It is tea party tactics which gunners of both parties think is quite ok.
What is going to change things is more gun deaths. There will be a point where people will refuse to remain silent. They will refuse to be bullied by the gun lobby.
Maybe it will be today, maybe next week but as sure as the sun comes up there will be another mass shooting. It will happen before the Nov election and the gunners will not shed a tear. The population will ask, "what can be done." Maybe again we will say nothing can be done but some day we won't be saying that.
And you can be sure of this. I don't give a shit what the gunners on this board think of me!
