Another mass killing: "OMFG, I'm afraid! I need a (or more) Gun(s)!

I think this is the NRA's new marketing ploy. Keep as many guns as possible in as many different hands as possible without regard to the gun owner's ability to prudent gun usage...

And more gun sales occur because of a frightened populace.


It's no longer the household with a shotgun in the closet or a 38 in the underwear drawer. We have people with weapons that are more in line with a battlefield than home protection. No longer just a box of shells, many have cases... Thousands of rounds. Weapons that fire as fast as a person can twitch their index finger.

We have to stop the fear, we have to make access to weapons of war more difficult. We have to stand up to the fear mongers, the paranoids and the NRA's political power.
