    Zach, there is something that you and I and most of the world cannot comprehend.  We do not know how we would behave if we were all of a sudden insanely rich and totally powerful and eager to keep devouring more and more.

    I cannot comprehend.  

    But, that is the state of things.  The NRA is SUPER WEALTH and SUPER POWER and NOTHING and NO ONE matters.

    NOTHING and NO ONE.

    JUST THE MEMBERS.  IT IS LIKE THE UNION FROM HELL.  With NO MANAGEMENT AT ALL.  THE UNION RULES.   GUNS and MONEY reign.

    They rule the CONGRESS and of course they RULE TRUMP the PIG.

    Looks to be an issue oriented society with the men on a different page from the women.

    Why not get millions to join the NRA organization  and not buy or use guns... Maybe then you can veto things.  .........

    Interesting, infiltrate,  but joining fills the coffers and the leadership probably would still stick to its core principles. You must realize what they know. America was made by the power of a gun and they feel it will be kept that way.

    Because we no longer have a government that is of, for, by and the people.  We have a government of wealthy men who "govern" by corporate and military interests.

    It would be nice if we could get Trump off of Twitter so he could do something for the people.

    I don't think he has any interest in doing anything for the people unless they belong to the 1%.

    I don't agree with your premise.

    Edomites love chaos and disruption simulating the environment in Hell they soon will experience.

    Because the government has no constitutional jurisdiction in that subject. Just like there is no jurisdiction to print paper money or enforce a monopoly in the mail business or give money to people who pretend to be poor or forbid certain medications or most of the things the government does.
