(171 posts)I'm not surprised that there are a lot of gun owning democrats, but I'd be surprised if there were a lot of liberal democrats demanding that they be allowed to have military style weapons as part of their basic 2nd Amendment right.
Our leaders are doing what they always do, which is what their donors want, and the NRA has money to donate. Most people are in favor of common sense gun violence prevention, but who's standing in the way? The NRA and all of their bought and paid for congresspeople, that's who.
I have to believe that someday people will talk about privately owned weapons the way people now talk about cocaine being in Coca Cola, or heroin being available over the counter. They'll say,"Yeah sonny, I know you can't imagine it, but I'm telling you back when I was your age you could walk into a WalMart, pick out an AR15 and carry it out with you." Hopefully, the response will be,"Pop pop, what was an AR15?"
