3. We like to think that when it hits one of them personally that they will finally do something.

Well, two of their members have been brutally and almost fatally hit and still they do nothing. I think we need to acknowledge that we were wrong about that. The only way they will do anything is by force. The NRA figured out a long time ago that money talks. We've tried common sense, begging, shaming and guilt. It's time we admit that our methods have failed.

So why don't we fight fire with fire. Can't we join forces to out money the NRA? Apparently the congress critters respond to money. Is there an organization we can support (or form) to counter the NRA? I don't like having to resort to this, but damn it, they are not going to change anything until someone or some entity can "pay" them more than the NRA. I really, really don't like this , but this is the world we live in.
