It's time to repeal the GOP/NRA liability protection of gun makers and sellers

69. All the fear & gibbering in this thread tells you WHICH tactic is likely to be most effective

short-term in shutting down the NRA and the "RKBA" industry: litigation.

In the long term, it's not going to matter because the country will be solidly Blue in a generation, and there simply won't be any such thing as an AR-15 or any other assault rifle on the civilian market - or in civilian hands, either, despite what our "law abiding gun owners" say about not giving them up unless the government comes and takes them. That ship has sailed, and not one great-grandchild of any "pro gun progressive" posting in this very thread will be able to walk into a Gump's Sporting Goods and purchase anything similar to such weaponry - it will be outlawed for all but the military and L.E., and the "law abiding" among our gun owners will have turned theirs in, and the not-so law abiding among our gun owners who REFUSE to turn their assault rifles in...will be in a Federal prison, where they belong.

But in the short term, massive, targeted litigation against the gun industry and their enablers is the way to go. Drive the cost of that assault rifle to half a million dollars, and there will be no more manufacturer of that weapon. Nationalization of the domestic gun industry coupled with a sky-high import tariff - say, %5,000 of MSRP value - on overseas products is also something that absolutely should be on the table.

One way or the other, the day of the NRA and it's lackeys is drawing to a close: forty years from now people will laugh with puzzled, contemptuous wonder about such things as the "RKBA" movement, just like they laugh with just contempt now about the White Citizen's Councils of the segregated South.
