That is going to change. If the NRA wants to survive, it needs to go back to being the safety org it started out as, and not the profit lobby it has become, or it will die.
The GOP can do the right thing or get the fuck out of the way. Wanting a safer society free from an average of 90 firearm deaths per day does not mean we want a dictatorship.
The march played clips of the NRA lies about firearm laws under Hitler and Stalin. The intent was not to take them from everyone, but away from but party loyalists.
Hitler expanded firearm ownership to party loyalists. He only took them from anyone the party saw as a potential dissenter.
The other fucking nonsense about WW2 Germany is that AFTER the allies defeated Germany, WE put heavy firearm regulations on Germany as part of their contrition. It WAS NOT an all out ban either.
Again, wanting a safer society does not mean those who want it want a dictatorship.

They just played a video message from Malala showing her support. I think being shot in the head for wanting an education gives her every right to support the movement. The entire world should want less violence, not more.

Generalizations are fun. Look, you even got a kudos for it.

I'll post this since I can't be the only one who has thought of it:
So, is there a plan on file with the local, county, municipal, state and national authorities for if (when?) 100,000 to 500,000 people surround this building and attempt to burn it to the ground ?? And then what happens ??
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

That doesn't look like up-armored glass to me.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Are the people inside armed ??
Will the local, county, municipal, state and/or federal personnel who show up return fire on the building to protect the crowd, or will they instead open fire on the crowd to protect the building and it's occupants??
Will the people in the building fire on the authorities ??
Will the fire department attempt to extinguish the fire(s) if the building is unsecured and weapons fire is still occurring ??
This would all have to be in the plan.
Wonder if a FOIA request would work?? Might be handy to know beforehand . . . .

The ironic part of me wonders why no one has taken pot shots at their building.
