On a related note why do people vote for these elderly people? Feinstein is 79. Three senators are in their 80s, 24 are in their 70s. They've got a shitload of power but are they even in touch with reality anymore?
I agree with a lot of their stances, but as an organization they can go fuck themselves.
Nah, I can't support the NRA for doing rallies in the cities where mass murders went down due to guns just days after the shootings took place. I agree with a lot of their stances, but as an organization they can go fuck themselves.

And bitches, of course (no Lox).

But besides being after the "Scarface" trinity of money, power, and women they are also actively involved in firearm issues. Including things like promoting firearm safety. And more so than any other organization in the world. Sometimes in misguided ways maybe, but still.

It's not about guns being the reason for all the violence that's happening but I don't feel firearms itselves are a particularly helpful item to involve into any conflict. What I mean is that an organisation, whose only focus are guns, might have some aspects to it that aren't that bad. But no matter if it's gun safety or whatever, in the end it's about promoting guns (Along with the "Scarface Trinity", but I'd rather see that trinity internalized in an organisation like Doctors Without Borders than in the fucking NRA). See where I'm coming from?

But to state that they aren't about the cause they claim, which is promoting firearms yeah, like you did in the first post is a fallacy.

I thought I was more precise in my second post which said: "But no matter if it's gun safety or whatever, in the end it's about promoting guns (Along with the "Scarface Trinity", but I'd rather see that trinity internalized in an organisation like Doctors Without Borders than in the fucking NRA)." Cuz no matter what the motivation of the organisation's members might be, the organisation itself is still about promoting guns, which I don't think is a very desirable goal in itself.
The gun debate is crazy right now.Ive got a question for all you cupcake Euros who think the Queen knows best - How did the Assault Rifles Ban of 1994 effect the Columbine Incident?I'll wait...
