you know, for security reasons. Lawmakers who have accepted donations from the NRA should go silently give their thoughts and prayers while the rest of them work on gun legislation.

Misses the point. Voters’s ignoring or making excuses for anti-gun votes is central to the NRA’s stranglehold on this country. Blaming the GOP without looking at our own voting priorities is a disengenous cop out.

Unfortunately too many Americans have to be told what's right and wrong because they can't figure it out on their own.
This holds very true for the gun nuts in America.

You're correct that they're not all Republicans, but the vast majority - way too many to be called random distribution - are Republican right-wingers. Why is that most Democrats have no probem filtering out the NRA lies and garbage, but the GOP buys the entire line? They have to own this, along with a lot of other unfortunate things named Donald Trump.

I'm not saying that all the gun nuts in America are Republican, so please don't spam me.

These shameless politicians will support the devil himself, so long as the money keeps flowing. I mistakenly thought when Scalise was shot, there would be calls for reform. No such luck.
