(2,477 posts)The gun control org. in the country can't even come close to matching the membership of the NRA, the Brady Org. has a total of 23,000 members and to raise money, have had to sell their mailing list, the VPC is just about kaput, the Million Mom March is down to a few thousand Mom March with their leader in prison for shooting a someone.
If gun control were so popular, then why is appox. 1/2 of the Congress A rated by the NRA? You can't even get Pres. Obama on board with new gun control laws, you know why? Because he is a smart and shrewd politician who knows that gun control is a losing issue with the general population.
You, my friend, are on the losing side of the gun control issue.
Now, I'm not in favor of unrestricted access to firearms, I, like Pres. Obama, think that we need to do better enforcement of the laws already out there, better reporting by the states to NICS of prohibited persons, open up NICS to private sellers to check if the buyer is a prohibited person.
I can tell by the way you address this group that you don't care what pro gun people think of you, well, all I can say is that I won't stoop to your level.
I try to stay civil and if I'm insulted enough times, then I refuse to engage the person.
