Why the NRA wins. (3)

1. Confusing the murmur of nightly murders with mass shootings

results in the blunt force trauma of social solutions: Prohibition. Here in DU, attention is given to sociopathic mass shootings, and not so much to drive-bys, robberies gone violent or even domestic fights, unless they serve the purpose of attack & smear of gun-owners, which happens to be the same purpose for posting of mass shootings. Therein is the lesson: Second Amendment defenders are CONSTANTLY reminded of the visceral hatred of a comparatively small number of gun-control advocates, and act accordingly with SUSTAINED and UNDIMINISHED resistance to virtually any proposal to diminish acts of violence.

If ever there was a vanguard for NRA activism, it is the withering animosity of these keyboard prohibitionists and their counterparts in legislative bodies and MSM. They operate as virtual free-consultants. The NRA "wins," the Democratic Party gets smash-mouthed, and what measures which could address the routine violence and schoolyard spectacular remain in deep freeze.

The NRA have got these extreme prohibitionists right where they want, doing what they want.
