You're not helping your cause. Your approach and demeanor pushes people in the opposite direction you want them to go.

I dropped my NRA membership years ago for various reasons and have refused to rejoin. It cost me my membership to the only rifle range in the county. But thanks to you I'm again a member.

My demeanor? LOL. Pot/kettle black.

Gun laws need to change. Some people will go crying and screaming. I remember when car laws changed when I was in high school and required everyone wear seatbelts. My history teacher swore he would never wear one over his dead body.

Mine too. That's why I exercise my 2nd amendment rights instead of depending on others for security or lack thereof. If you want to change gun laws, there is a constitutional procedure to accomplish this.

It's simple dude... you, me, the shooter and the rest of the public shouldn't have access to assault rifles, bump stocks and large magazines. My dog in this fight is my children, family and friends. We all deserve better.

Still lying, I see.

I, and I’m sure many here, do not take you seriously because you can’t even classify a firearm properly. This weakens any argument you make, whether you see it or not.

What kind of car do you have? Does it go over 70mph? Does it get less than 30mpg? Are you a two car family? Do you really need a car that goes over 70? Do you really need a larger car that gets poor gas mileage? Do you really need two cars? I'm sure you can carpool. I mean my family deserves for you to be less of an impact on my life.

It doesn't do anything to his argument. His argument is flawed because it is based on emotion.

It's not enforceable or at least very difficult. I would not mind background checks on private sales if it didn't cost money and there was no serial number tied to the sale. I don't want to sell a gun to someone that shouldn't have it, convicted felon, mentally I'll, etc. If you're going to do it I see no reason to involve the gun, just the purchaser. The only reason to put the serial number on there is to have a means of confiscation.

Not true. The need is so they can trace the thousands of guns confiscated annually that were used in crimes.

Wait, if the cops confiscated the gun, they would be able to read the serial number off of that weapon and then be able to do ballistics on it to see if any other previous shootings match those same characteristics.

I guess I don't understand what you are saying.

I like to see the list so I know who is boycotting the NRA so I know who NOT to do my business with anymore. All this anger should be over the sheriff and the FBI for letting this happen. Then, 1 SRO officer and 3 regular duty officers standing outside afraid to rum in and do their job without swat or whoever they were waiting on.

There are 100x, maybe 1000x or even more deaths due to alcohol deaths and drunk driving than there is with a gun. Let's boycott and sue Budweiser, Miller, jack Daniels, the local moonshine producer etc. And close up business on all alcohol for allowing these alcohol deaths to happen.

Assault rifles are regulated by the ATF already. Not sure how much more regulated they need to be since no legally registered one has ever been used in a crime.

Bump stocks, okay whatever. I never could grasp how the ATF even approved them in the first place even though they are just within the technical limits of the full auto rule. Other than the sister-screwing, backwoods Alabama neckbeard crowd that thinks it's fun to waste ammo and showing it off to their sister-screwing, backwoods Alabama neckbeard friends, there really isn't a use for them.

And large magazines? Kinda like a Barrett M82 magazine? That's a pretty big magazine. Though they are already limited to 10 rounds, so not sure why you are screeching about that.

That's bull. Guns used in crimes are seldom tracked back to the person committing the crime. It tracks it back to the original owner. The gun has probably been stolen or exchanged hands many times. The government wants a database for future confiscation.

Better not be interested in renting a car in the near future...

There are other rental car companies other than the ones that decided to not give discounts to nra members.


It amazes me how the left has hijacked this tragedy and used it to attack an orginization that has nothing to do with this tragedy. Sheep gonna sheep.

I didn't avoid the question, I didn't understand it.

Why is it a positive for the company? If that is the question, then my answer is because more people would have a positive reaction than a negative reaction to the companies disassociation with the NRA.

More people view the NRA as a negative than a positive.

Still avoiding the question:

Why do you anything that may harm the nra as a negative?

pro·jec·tion
prəˈjekSH(ə)n

noun

an estimate or forecast of a future situation or trend based on a study of present ones

This in no way validates your argument. If anything, it sows seeds of doubt. The basketVOLS were projected to finish 13th in the conference...

Damn, those pesky projections are often wrong.

Do any of the pro-gun/NRA people on here really believe the "cars kill more than guns" argument is a good one?
Click to expand...

I think it makes the point that the risk of loosing your friends and family to a car crash are greater than losing them to gun violence. But if you don't like the car analogy, you can replace that with cancer or obesity kills more people than gun violence.

The point is that from a numbers and statistical standpoint, odds are that gun violence is the least of our worries. But, because gun violence often occurs in such dramatic fashion, it grabs our attention more and stirs up a greater emotional response.
