Gun Violence in America
Hosted by Cstar1
Americans' obsession with guns are killing us. Other countries don't have this problem, why do we insist on clinging to 19th century justice and neanderthal attitudes?

The money paid for dues is not used to finance legislative work. The NRA has a seperate section that takes in donations for that. That is the one that will surge.

Doctors kill more patiens through medical errors than all the people who die from a gunshot wound. Many of the shootings are suicides or police actions. Statistics can be twisted to make a case on either side.

And do you have the statistics to back up that claim?

I'm not one bit sorry about the chaos going on at the NRA right now.
The sooner they fall, the better.

https://protectingpatientrights.com/doctors-kill-people-year-preventable-deaths-car-accidents-guns/ Doctors will deny this but those in the field going after doctors who have malpractice claims against them know better. If you subtract the suicides, and police shootings the numbers are much smaller. Suicides will always find a way and the police are exempt from any laws. I agree one unnecessary death is too many, however any attempt at banning guns cannot work as people know how to make them. They will always be available on the black market. We also do have a constitutional right to keep and bear them. The Militia has been outlined as all able bodied people able to defend the country. The purpose of the second amendment is to give the people the right to overthrow by force a government that oppresses the people, not for hunting or any other purpose. The Gifford's are fine with them owning guns, just not you, they are hypocrites.
