Interesting. Why hasn’t the NRA fought such a case in court?

Because the Supreme Court has ruled on this in the past. Gun control laws are a state issue.

...and I contend that the NRA doesn’t give a rip about the Constitution or they would be attempting at the very least to protect our Second Amendment Rights. The NRA has been around since 1877, and every egregious Congressional attack on the Second Amendment has been since that time.

1934 Act to reduce criminals killing other criminals with machine guns.

1968 Gun Control Act. To make it illegal to buy guns from the Sears Catalog and other spurious issues.

1986 Gun Control Act, to BAN machine guns in the hands of WE THE PEOPLE. Why, because they can.

I am an NRA member, but the NRA and many on it’s board, are not friends of the Second Amendment.

Am I reading this right? 473 “police officials” from 18,000 departments favor gun control, is that it?

Even if there were only one “police official” in each of those 18,000 departments, that would mean that gun grabbers were outnumbered 17,527 to one.

And what does “police official” mean? 20-something girls in HR?

Exactly what went through my mind. How do we know exactly who signed exactly what and when. The persons behind this heinous act need to be identified and acquainted with the 2A (2nd Amendtment).

And like has been posted, the numbers are in...vast majority do not favor restrictions on a national level and even at state levels they are subject to the 2nd Amendment.

Nuts to this whole idea.
