It's true. The mere existence of libs makes nutjobs so fearful of something, that they feel compelled to purchase firearms in order to defend their blood and soil.
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!

Unfortunately, I'm not back under any official capacity. Also, I am aware of the sarcasm in your statement. Why couldn't I have just stayed away, right?
Just here to spread some cheer I suppose. Well done.

Once again - gun sales are way up - ammunition sales are through the roof - we are back to shortages of ammo (due to sales - it's not from some conspiracy theory of "gubbermint intrusion" or anything of the sort).
Say what you like about hating Trump and Republicans - but for you "quit flooding the market with guns" types --- you really need to reconsider voting for Democrats.
It just makes people crazy and they go out and buy guns and ammo when the ( D )s win.....
I’m sure that’s true - fear and low information have always been powerful marketing tools to convince people to buy more of what they already have too much of.

To clarify.
Nobody is marketing fear - at least not that I have seen.
When you see the shelves cleared off on a gunshop' s shelf - it's not marketing genius by the marketing department of Smith and Wesson or Federal Ammunition. It' s because many right leaning gun owners have listened to the left leaners who want to stick huge taxes on guns and ammo - or outlaw types of guns. Of course this is not the entire left - but a portion of it - and those people on the right pay attention.
When you get some nutter like Diane Feinstein who wants to outlaw handguns (she did while Mayor of San Francisco in the mid 80's) the right pays heed. She is forever labeled the enemy. ANYTHING she now does is suspect.
No.. It's not fear or disinformation - it's long memories.

OLB started this thread, not me. He brings this issue up all the time. I don't hear you talking about his repetition.
The real dangerous repetition is coming from the ceos of these companies through fear lobbying. That is the real reason we cant have sane safety laws. My pointing that out is not a threat to anyone. You need to stop being annoyed by me and focus on the real problem.
As long as America has the level of firearm violence we do, I will continue to talk about it, here and elsewhere. Show us another thread I started that says to vote ( D )
Perhaps I am getting Alzheimers - as I would swear I never did.....
The issue in this thread you started is about firearms. Your BS argument is that Dems are to blame for more sales because they scare the cult owners on the far far right. Again, that is nonsense. It is like you are going to alienate 100% of all Muslims if you criticize their zealots.
Your logic sucks.

Just like my repetition, my spelling can't be loaded into a banana clip and used to mow down people in public.

My logic is impeccable.
You can graph it out any way you like - but each time a hardcore ( R ) gets in office -gun sales go down.
Your problem - you want your vote to not have repercussions that disagree with you. It doesn' t work that way.
Welcome to reality.
Want to elect ( D )s?
Gun and ammunition sales WILL increase.

Of course they’re marketing fear. Gun sales spike because the right keep singing the tired old song that the Democrats are coming for your guns. Never mind that this has never happened (please cite the most recent gun confiscation enacted under a Democratic presidency), all that matters is that people believe the fairy tale.
I don’t know who coined the phrase, ‘They can have my gun when they pry it from my cold, dead hand’, but I’ll wager it wasn’t anyone on the left.

A group that felt the NRA was too far left on gun rights coined that one - that's why it was such a big deal to have the NRA get the old man up there and shake a stick to the script. They were announcing themselves.
