How about this for anti-gun/bullet fans to do-(who have a little spending money)- [View all]

Why don't all anti-gun, anti-NRA anti-bullet people with a bit of money to spend, instead of giving it to a group, why not in each district, go in and buy up all the bullets, which, according to reports, are in limited stock. (only those with NO guns should be involved.)

Obviously not for guns one doesn't have, but to remove it from the market altogether.
A gun is no good without a bullet, and with the government buying some, and Bloomberg buying some, we could limit the entire flow of bullets for a long time.

As for what to do with the bullets, I am sure one could go and have someone eliminate them from the market place and street.

This would surely effect the gun buyers if they couldn't get bullets.

After all, how much is a box of bullets?

Get rid of all bullets, then everyone can keep their guns. How's that for compromise? graham4anything May 2013 #25
