For Americans tired of NRA bullying.

[Brian37]

If we're in agreement that criminals don't obey the law, and the law fails to ban assault rifles while banning a squirrel gun, but fails to ban -anything- on account of grandfathering...just what is the point of disagreement between us?

I don't think it's a bad law -because- criminals won't obey it, I think it's a bad law because it won't and can't do what we want it to, while doing things we don't intend, all the -while-criminals don't obey it.  This is the definition of inanity in legislation, and the only people which it could conceivably apply to are "the good guys" who, out of the apparent goodness of their hearts, stop using the gun they don't -have- to stop using.

Nope sorry, that is yet another dead script.

You are not going to make the issue legal vs illegal. The gun death issue regardless of the legality at time of buy does not negate the flooded market. And legal at time of buy does not prevent someone from harm after a legal buy. The Va Tech shooter had no record when he legally bought his guns. The Newtown mother also legally bought her firearms. And the Orlando shooter also flew under the radar.

My enemy has never been INDIVIDUALS who will go their entire lives without harming others. My enemy is the fear marketing of the NRA that is merely their to protect profits. Nothing is going to change until our country changes it's attitudes about how we view firearms. Just like the Middle East wont change until enough people understand that far too many individuals have a bad attitude about how they view the holy book they call the Quran.

I don't care about your "intent" as an individual. You are merely one person in a larger sample, and even the legal gun buyers go into a buy with a very bad attitude that nothing will ever go wrong after that legal buy. The majority of gun injuries and deaths are not from gang violence or mass shootings, but in the home, from BOTH legally and illegally obtained guns.

I have a friend from Oklahoma, who grew up with guns in his house, who still likes them, but even he says our status quo is insane and even he says he hates what the NRA has become. 

We cant simply continue pumping them out like candy and we cant simply keep thinking no record at time of buy is the only vetting we need. What is paralyzing the nation is the marketing the NRA does. It has gotten a very few minority gun owners in just enough of a big enough mass to hold everyone hostage. Just like it is wrong to blame all Muslims for what the few do, but also wrong for the majority of Muslims to ignore that small minority that is just big enough to hold back progress.

Just stop buying the fear. There is no conspiracy on the gun safety side. Nobody should object to wanting to reduce gun violence.
