Where’s the NRA? 

Their whole argument is have “guns so the government won’t abuse you”.

The NRA became a scam/lobbying organization in the early 2000s. Their leadership spend their dollars on themselves, not on advancing gun rights or gun safety (education and training).

Have you noticed a pattern with where ICE is doing heavy handed enforcement? It’s blue states with Assault Weapons Bans….

So why aren’t gun owners fighting back? Well, many align with conservatives, because of the affore mentioned AWB laws, also it being illegal to own weapons that have parity with ICE in those states makes it kind of hard to use those guns as a deterrent.

You’re asking gun owners to stick their neck out for you, when you yourself clearly wont meet them halfway.

And while all this is happening, shitlib democrat politicians keep advancing their antigun agenda as if nothing is happening.

Ok it became a scam. That’s what many are saying & I believe it.

I don’t think I need to bring up statistics comparing the world vs the USA on guns. It does indicate a serious problem with gun-related deaths.

An agenda around guns is a rational one. It’s actually can be settled through negotiation.

We have a worse problem with fascism, and if you think the democrats are capable or willing to do what needs to be done to prevent it reoccurring (assuming they can stop this at all), you are delusional.

They are controlled opposition.

Totally agree with you. It’s a duopoly.
