Not you.
92 percent of Americans favor closing the "gun show loophole" for handguns...make it so that you cannot buy a handgun without a background check.
Even 78 percent of NRA members think that this entirely reasonable policy is a good idea.
So, at hearings today when that idea was floated by LaPierre, what was his response?
No.
Wayne LaPierre and the NRA have never...ever...represented the majority of Americans...now he isn't even representing the thoughts of more than 3/4 of his own organization's members.
If he doesn't represent NRA members, then who does he represent?
The same folks that the NRA and LaPierre have always used your money to represent...the gun and ammo industry.
They've never cared about you beyond your membership dues, and while you may have argued about it before so that you wouldn't have to face the obvious buyer's remorse of wasting your money on those fools in the past, it's kind of hard to argue with it now.
Wayne LaPierre and the NRA have one client...the gun and ammo industry. They have one job...to lobby for whatever makes them the most money.
And they use your money to do it, even when 78% of you don't agree with how LaPierre and the NRA are using it.
Just in case there were Americans who didn't realize before how fukked up the NRA is, thanks to LaPierre they know it now.
We're not talking about the straw man of "banning all guns, oh no!"...we're talking about selling handguns without proving that you have the right to carry.
How hard is this?
Fish on...
