I was just going to say the same thing. DD was the only business on that list I knowingly do did business with.

I demand action too! We must implement nationwide reciprocity - similar to how a drivers license from one state is honored in another. We must make “gun free” zones - which clearly are not - illegal. Nearly all of the much over-hyped mass shootings occur in these areas. No surprise, that’s where the whack-jobs know they can find large numbers of relatively defenseless potential victims. Common sense dictates, no demands we end this idiotic practice.

Isn’t oligarchic fascism wonderful?

I’m sure the Founding Fathers would approve. /s

Strengthens the oligarchy.

Maybe there should be a letter demanding the arrest, trial and execution of 145 CEOs as enemies of the Constitution.

There are many more of us than 145. Send messages to your Senators.

"And how would you do it? House to house search?"

How long have special constituents tried to disarm common people? Why are they afraid of common people? There are many ways to find out if someone has weapons: disagreements between family members, the things children say to teachers, doctors, and all, medical emergencies, other emergencies,... They'll disarm the common populace a few at a time through campaigns of fear (extreme prison sentences), raids..."by any means necessary."

Are 145 CEO opinions worth more than 100 million gun owners? Sure seems like they think so.

Then they also seem to think the speak for everyone they employee.

As the Gestapo “disarm the common populace a few at a time,” who will guard the gestapo families and homes from retaliatory raids?

Not so long ago, several very wealthy individuals paid big bucks for a meeting with a consultant known for his expertise on surviving catastrophic events. At the meeting, among other questions, the consultant was asked about ways to keep security employees in line--one question in particular about the use of a hypothetical collar that would cause pain to its wearer (either by choking or electric current...don't remember which). I might try to locate that old post.

To the members of Congress, yes, when they send money to campaigns. They're worth anything they want those members of Congress to do. The NRA-ILA is our only way of doing the same ( nraila.org ).

145 CEOs don’t want to miss out on the D.C. party’s got to keep the gate open for some kickbacks game.
