I think you have the wrong "devil". 200+ years with the 2nd amendment and because of this relatively recent behavior is because of the NRA? I find that hard to swallow.

This latest event was the pure and utter failure of our precious/wonderful government who you apparently want to grant 100% of every American's personal security. School district: fail. Law enforcement: fail. FBI: fail. See something, say something: fail. Gun control laws: fail.

Maybe you should take a look at social issues, which I believe are at the root of this problem. Welfare, single mom households, declining religious/moral influence, etc.

Trying to blame the NRA is borderline ludicrous. I guess what is really sad to me is that the NRA has to exist to protect a right which is #2 in the Bill of Rights. It's the only right that helps to guarantee that all our other rights will not be stripped from us.

Owning a firearm in the country is our right and shall not be infringed
(even though it is constantly being infringed). I do want to save the children, so, let's outlaw abortion for starters. Abortion is not written anywhere in our Constitution, gun rights are. Let's get serious and save the lives of those yet to be born. Otherwise, you're just blowing hot air.
