At the very least make sure that someone who has been investigated twice by the FBI in the past two years can't just walk in and *legally* buy a Glock and then walk into a busy nightclub carrying it and start shooting people! Geez.... this is a country of smart people... we should be able to do at least that much!!!

There needs to be a sensible alternative to the NRA for people who truly are focused on gun safety and sport in the way I believe the organization was originally intended. Now everything is a scare tactic to boost gun sales after every tragedy. Responsible gun owners deserve better.Korinthiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15580286551375780490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8654887465201994138.post-1591861038349982242016-06-13T15:24:30.338-05:002016-06-13T15:24:30.338-05:00There are plenty of us in the middle, we are just ...There are plenty of us in the middle, we are just drowned out by the extremists on both sides. What President Obama has been espousing and is still advocating for, along with most of the other opinions I have read, is banning assault weapons and keeping suspected terrorists from buying guns. That sounds like a middle ground to me - people can keep their ordinary weaponry, so long as they are not domestic abusers or terrorists or otherwise in trouble with the law, weaponry that is adequate for them to defend against a personal attack or home invasion. The NRA deliberately spins these suggestions to sound as if "the President is taking away your guns." It is all perfectly sensible regulation, that is not at all explicitly forbidden by the 2nd Amendment. I've seen the comments on Facebook - people just willfully ignore what is being said and take things to an extreme. The NRA itself approved of gun control, at least through the 1960's. This is a manufactured crisis by those who profit from weapons and those who profit from making people feel scared or threatened. And it is hurting our country.Suburban Correspondenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11488916572135296650noreply@blogger.com
