get this "strait" (sic): I would rather have sane gun regulation passed in this country than have the fucking NRA dictate weak-assed laws that allow more children to die for the profit of corrupt politicians and gun manufacturers.

It is you NRA apologists who are "jumping up and down" because you're scared that the mean old Democrats are coming to take away your precious fucking gun. The tide is changing, and the public is very tired of reading about one gun-caused atrocity after another on an almost daily basis.

We are not coming for your fucking guns, but we WILL enact laws and regulations that make you accountable and responsible for the fucking things. We WILL make our politicians pay a political price for not ensuring that criminals and mentally incompetent persons do not have unfettered access to fucking guns. This may not happen overnight, but it WILL happen, and the majority of Americans already agree with us.

You, and the author of that right-wing piece of trash you posted, would have us believe that ALL gun owners vote and think as a bloc. News flash: they do NOT, and many of them want the same things that we want. There is no need to kiss the collective asses of the "cold dead hands" followers of NRA, because they are in the distinct minority when it comes to the issue of "more gunz is better" as a solution.

You people really need to get over yourselves. You are no longer relevant to the issue.
