Link to the madness

Short version: Common sense gun control voters, enraged at Obama's megaloss today on gun-grabbing, will rise up in unified, righteous fury and destroy the Republicans.

Competitions (such as CAS, PPC, and Garand shoots — which I do or have done) are great places to learn.

The disaster that is Obamacare will cause voters in 2014 to rise up and destroy Democrats.

“Common sense gun control voters, enraged at Obama’s megaloss today on gun-grabbing, will rise up in unified, righteous fury and destroy the Republicans.”

Blah, blah, blah. Some union slug said something similar like that to me one time in a saloon in Michigan and ended up on the floor with his arm ripped out of the socket.

obama and his voters can’t do more damage than the republicans themselves self-inflict on themselves.

“Common sense gun control voters, enraged at Obama’s megaloss today on gun-grabbing...”

Common sense voters won today, pal.

What you’re talking about is America’s cadre of moronic, knee-jerk Leftists, who never saw a bill to enhance government control of somebody-or-other they couldn’t love.

“After getting suckered into supporting the “one time” 1968 Gun Control Act, they finally realized what kind of odious people they were up against, rolled up their sleeves - and the rest is history.”

The NRA was not really *for* the 1968 act. The gun industry might have been, because it cut off the competition of cheap imports of military surplus.

The 1968 act was aimed directly at the NRA, because they made much of their money off of mail order ads in The American Rifleman.

After the 1968 act, there were no more mail order ads. They had to rely on membership ... and the modern NRA was started.

The Modern NRA is a direct result, although unintended, of the “gun control” campaign in the United States.
