In America we have two problems one is drug dealers, and the others is guns pushers. Gun rights have been around since the beginning of the union. But the NRA heralded the age of gun pushing. The NRA money put things out of balance. Many think, of the NRA as ass a grass roots organization but it is not it is controlled and financed by the gun manufacturers. The NRA has one reason to exist and that is to make bigger and bigger profits for the gun manufactures. They don't care how many school children are killed the AR-15s are high profit items.
