A civilian arms war in the USA is just sound ROI - Business Development for the firearms and ammo industry. The NRA is their strategic sales tool, through lobbying and pushing extreme laws.

The NRA no longer advocates for Americans shooting at targets, reasonable hunting, and gun safety. They advocate power and justice from the gun, ironically like the local Maoists promoted when I was in high school. Extremists, wrapped in the American flag and cop-killer bullets this time...

The NRA is the industry lobby and propaganda machine, where hypnotized followers are conditioned to be fearful of liberal boogeymen, and rabid against government, thought to be coming into their homes for their firearms. NRA hyperbole would have us preparing for a civil war.

Laws like 'Stand Your Ground" with growing liberal concealed weapons protections are an attack on civil enlightened society -- constitutional due process and civil rights (other than firearms), be damned.
