tejek, re: But in many of the school shootings, the kids used their law abiding parents' guns....isn't there some role the NRA should play to stop to travesty? It's called the "Eddie Eagle" program, available free to any school that wants to use it. re: Stop opposing sound gun legislation. If the NRA's membership are such saints, then they should not have a problem agreeing to restrictions on gun ownership that help to keep guns out of the hands of criminals. They need to put their money to good use instead of using it to lobby Congress. They do, they support every gun crime law on the books and are always reminding the gun control groups and politians to enforce the laws on the books. re: the kids used their law abiding parents' guns....isn't there some role the NRA should play to stop to travesty? Parental negligence in securing handguns from children is already a crime. re: There are a lot more than a couple of hundred killings per year We were discussing accidents. Would you entertain a discussion and breakdown of the 30K gun related deaths per year? Followed by a simple "guess-timation" of the number of deaths avoidable by any piece of legislation you wish to see implimented?
