Of course it won’t. The NRA is a lobbying group for gun manufacturers. It will never, ever change its stance to “Hey, maybe we could buy less guns or make it harder to buy guns for anybody.” They can and should be treated from this perspective.

It’s the only way LaPierre can justify gun-free Republican events.

Guns! We got guns. Guns in our Jell-o, guns in our hello! You want a gun, we got guns. Look at this. This is a genuine, an-anodyne, very fine AC-450, with sexual safety and a g-spot you’ll never find. And here: a vest to protect your rest as you shoot this fine genuine find. You want guns? We got guns on spikes.…

Why do we have a police force? What’s the FBI for? If we should all be packing heat when we go shopping or go to church, what’s the point of paying trained people to protect us? If the general populace is going to be judge, jury, and executioner when a grocery store gets robbed, maybe disband SWAT so the Cowboys with…

The only thing that I would think might change the laws would be a shooter going after Congress. Republicans, specifically. I mean, children, church people, newscasters on live tv. NOPE. But maybe sheer self-interest might motivate a sea change.

NRA - “It’s all Obama’s fault, because he didn’t stop a person who was investigated for potential terrorist ties from getting a gun!!!”

I love how they’re willing to waste ammo on non-terrorists, too. Then again, they may think that anyone who steals merchandise is stealing America, automatically making them terrorists.

GUNS! GUNS! GUNS! GIVE EVERY HUMAN A GUN! WHAT COULD GO WRONG? HUMANS ARE VERY RELIABLE AND NEVER VIOLENT. IF EVERYONE CARRIES A GUN. PROBLEM SOLVED! WILL JUST HAVE SHOOTOUTS EVERY TIME WE GET PISSED AT EACH OTHER. IT’LL BE THE OLD WEST ALL OVER AGAIN. ROAD RAGE? BANG YOUR DEAD! BUMPED INTO ME? YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE!…

The NRA is now a trade group, and has been for more than a generation. Gun control, by its nature, will reduce gun sales. And reducing mass shootings or the severity of them, also reduces sales.

The NRA’s position, is similar to that of the fossil fuel industry and global climate change denial...which is that any…

Racist asshole kills a bunch of black people while they attend church using a gun. Homophobic Muslim kills a bunch of gays at a night club with guns. Antisemite kills a bunch of Jews outside a community center with a gun. Multiple psycho guys kill people in dozens of shootings at schools and movie theaters using guns.

L…

“They are coming to kill us and we make sure they are able to get ALL the firearms they need to do so. So, remember, buy more guns. Because we are all about supplying the bad guys with guns and only you can stop them. By also buying guns.”

In other words, we have a private organization that tell us how to rule our country. Not congress, not the President, just a bunch of fat pigs sitting on their behinds, high-fifing each other anytime another AR-15 gets bought.

Thanks for the fearmongering, Lapierre. Now we’ve got armed untrained civilians blasting away at shoplifters:

I came here to add something meaningful to the conversation but all my brain will let my fingers type is “OH FUCK RIGHT OFF WITH YOUR SHIT!”

I don’t use the word hate lightly. I also try to remember that most people aren’t good or bad, everyone has some humanity, etc, etc.

It speaks to the inner-rage of all the white racists who feel like the filthy minorities should show them some respect for all the good things they’ve done (and never mention the mountains of horrible deeds they’ve done).

This man is the definition of thin skinned. All he does is dish it out, he can’t take a tap from a butterfly without boo hooing like a two year old who needs a nap.

If there is any silver lining here it’s that the media seems to have finally decided to put their pants back on, wash their hands and start doing their fucking job, which is holding this assholes feet to the flames on all his obvious bullshit lies he’s been spouting off.

It’s like when you’re 12 and your mom told you to clean your room before she got home from work. You obviously spend all day not doing it and then spring to frantic action shoving all your crap in your closet the second you hear your garage door open.
