If it weren't for the NRA, black gangs wouldn't even have automatic weapons. Weapons are so easy to get, anyone can get them, anyone. Compare to any civilized country on earth where guns are regulated and death rates are far lower. We have 12,000 gun deaths per year in this country. Most of those are related to the ease of being able to get automatic weapons, and those weapons being in the wrong hands, legally or not. The big lie of the NRA is that they're making us safer. In fact, they're making us less safe. The stats prove it. And instead of apologizing for Columbine, the NRA mounted a new PR effort to make assault rifles more available. These are also the creeps who corrupt and intimidate politicians. They're not about hunting, they're about fear and loathing.
