I support the second amendment. I also support common sense and doing the right thing. There’s nothing “well regulated” in allowing an untrained, heavily armed “militia” to shoot up schools and music concerts. Well regulated means gun owners should be a)trained b)licensed c)mentally fit <\/p>\n

NRA TV is a clusterfuck of fear, giving members lots of ridiculous excuses to arm themselves. It just goes to show how braindead the majority of those folks must be to allow themselves to buy into such obviously flawed and dangerously inflammatory logic. The agenda of fear and manipulation these assholes are marketing & propagandizing is simply fucking criminal, and the NRA must be reigned in.
