    I find this all very interesting at who gets blamed.

    I hear the bullchitters blame the NRA but the NRA teaches and promoted gun safety and securing arms so kids cannot get them.

    I hear bullchitters telling everyone that illegals should be free to come and go despite the fact that they are steal the identities of people that would be responsible and trgistered gun owners.

    I hear liberals pretend that the police will save your life and that no one will get guns if they ban them. How does that work with drugs? How did that work with alcohol? I was in Manchester England when their was a firefight between drug gangs with automatic weapons and the "special" cops that had to be called in. Shortly after that they busted a boat load filled with automatic weapons. The only people with out guns were the common people. The people I met were owners of companies and they all had "hunting weapos". The criminals obviously had no problem either. Same thing goes in Chicago where friends of politicians had weapons and so did the criminals. Leroy and his kids were just a poor unarmed target in his house in South Chicago.

    So when the killer goes out and with murder on his mind then he is not worried about the extra year for illegal posession of a firearm. The average drug user does not care about the drug possession charge and the average American did not care if he got caught at the local speakeasy.

    @carolina73 That’s not necessarily the case anymore.

    It certainly is the case.
    The NRA is and always has been the foremost promoter of safe firearms practices in the world.

    At the same time Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith blocked a bill Thursday morning that would have expanded background checks on firearm purchases, news was unfolding about a deadly school shooting in California.
    The House passed the bill in February, ...
    The shooter was 16 under california law he could not buy a gun carry a gun own a gun or bring one to school. So explain please what law would of changed what happened or how it relates to what was going on in congress.
    Also he shot himself clearly a case of mental illness . he was Asian also so good luck to liberals trying to blame whites or republicans.
    Mental illness is the real issue. What was the house do8ng at the time. O yes trying to impeach trump.
    Republicans have already changed some gun laws such as making a bump fire stock a restricted item nation wide.

    You want to hold parents responsible for their children’s actions? We have laws that hold a parent financially responsible for their child’s intentional misconduct up to $12,500. You want to expand that to negligence? You want to jail them?

    By the way...what was the House doing?

    Even if the organization cut training funding, the NRA still has member gun safety instructors who charge for their courses and are not dependent on NRA funding.
