Polling after the Parkland massacre indicates that over 2/3 of registered American voters agree that gun control laws need to be more strict. That's hardly a ringing endorsement for your assertion.

Edit to add:

I see that someone alerted on the previous post, and I can certainly see why. However, in a way I wish it were still there so everyone could see the stupidity that we're up against - a new 'member' of DU was claiming that far more people support the 2nd A than support the efforts of young Americans to improve gun control laws.

The problem with lies like this one goes back to the old saying "A lie can travel around the world in the time it takes the truth to put on its' pants". We are forced to expend a great deal of time and effort debunking right wing lies, and we'd darned well better have done our research and get our facts straight or we come across as looking like idiots.

Nothing sells guns like dead American children. And we wonder why nothing changes?

Much money is being spent on gun control efforts, and another pile (probably less) is being spent for NRA lobbying.

Nothing sells guns like a hint of increased gun control. Remington may even hope to exploit this to get out of bankruptcy.

Why expect change? Has Trump's approval rating fallen again? His base is a lock, for Trump, and probably for the NRA.

Hopefully the resistance will make sure that all that money the NRA collected is wasted on politicians who don't get elected.

... six times the amount the Failing NRA raised. They even have $2 MM left over after the Marches which they’re using to organize the Town Halls.

CNN buried the leade again.

I have some fact-rejecting Facebook friends who are in total meltdown over this. I can totally see them sending money.

8 years of buying weapons after every mass shooting must have been expensive to many folks who had to choose between health insurance and weapons of war. Might as well give up the family's rent money as donations to NRA. It's worth it to resist tyranny of the high school kids.

If you had to choose between educating your kids and defeating the zombie apocalypse of deranged millennials hopped up on Tide pods, choose guns every time. There was a run on bump stocks after Vegas also. You never know when you need that.

Given the news this past week about the putrid russians propping up the nra during the campaign, it's a very logical question.

so it's Mueller time.
