There must be something to this. I finally joined the NRA two days ago as a result of seeing this kid pop up all over the place with his progressive pronouncements on guns, climate change, and other political policies. The corporations' turning away from the NRA was a factor as well.

Awesome!  Although I don't like that they've given in on bump stocks. 

Suddenly, it's not the person, it's the inanimate object that's the problem.  If that's the case, why not restrict guns?

They were a large percentage of the reason I decided to become an NRA member a couple of days ago, and then Trump sealed the deal. Please tell me you don't believe that raising the gun purchasing age to 21 is going to be effective. His emotional response to this shooting and his dissing of the NRA reveals that this matter is yielding to a slippery Constitutional slope.

You win a "trade war" by being more competitive. Not by blocking the competition.

Socialist try import restrictions, price controls and tariffs and then after awhile wonder why the shelves are empty... Over and over... It never works long term, ever. But people want to "try it" because it appears like such an easy shortcut around actually competing...
