Don't insult my intelligence.
An innocent resident of Florida died last month at the hands of an irate
father who was "pissed off" that the person he thought he was gunning down had
wronged his daughter.
The only problem was that this responsible registered gun owner not only was
breaking the law by his vigilante action, but targeted the wrong person.
But we have laws that will deal with this.
Hurrah!
Only problem is that an innocent person is dead.
That's permanent. Laws or no laws. But his young wife can raise the young
children.
Support the NRA!
Criminals will get guns regardless of gun control.
Youse guys are like Fred Rogers:
Can you spell Bullshit?
I can.
B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T. Bullshit.
I'm not worried about drug dealing low-lifes that populate the sewers, I'm
worried about you responsible gun-owning gun-toting taxpayers with holsters
that think bullets solve problems and whose kids are smarter than you when it
comes to shielding their activities from your approving and only occassional
glances.
Bottom Line, if your lobby was really truthful you would support the sale and
ownership and any non-sporting weapons.

Fred,
The NRA does NOT promote automatic weapons for sporting purposes and never
has. Handguns of larger calibers are used for hunting very effectively when
configured and scoped properly. Handgun hunting presents its own set of
challenges and actually gives the game
more of a sporting chance. I will not even address the ignorant comment about
high school students. It doesn't deserve an intellegent response. Your fear
of guns has been fed by the anti-gun lobby propaganda to show the NRA in a less
than responsible light. The NRA
trains Police officers every year in classes that will probably save their
lives. They also also promote gun safety and they NEVER promote gun use by
children. They in fact have a program that is taught in many schools in the
United States called the Eddie Eagle
Program. This program teaches children when they see a gun, not to touch it,
go get get an adult. An adult would not be afraid of a gun. Maybe if you see
a gun, you should not touch it, go get a responsible adult.
