I've been surprised that not more had been said in the media about politicians and others calling for more gun control in the wake of the AZ attack. I guess I shouldn't have been. According to what I've read, any politician that suggests even the smallest bit of gun regulation apparently draws both barrels from the NRA and thensome. Apparently the NRA caused the Dems to lose Congress in 1994 and also caused Al Gore to lose the presidential election. Here we are wondering if the Tea Party is going to take over the country when the NRA has already done it. It seems the NRA controls which political party wins elections (if the NRA decides to exert itself). I'm surprised that the NRA didn't come out barrels blazing against Obama and in support of its poster-babe Palin.
It just incredible. Seriously, being able to shoot at 6 targets in a matter of seconds or a minute isn't good enough. It has to be 30. With the tragedies we've had in CO, VA and AZ, people still have no problems with having these automatic weapons available to anyone with a few bucks.
