SHAME ON THE NRA

               The Second Amendment was made for good reason and it should never be given up.  BUT, it did not mean that the NRA and gun lobbies could control the votes to make it legal to sell almost any size weapon.

               A poll out last year said 70 % of the public want tighter gun controls. Yet, Congress goes against the People and won’t do what is right.

               Millions of dollars flow out of the NRA gun lobby into the pockets of our elected congressmen and women.  They call it “campaign contributions”.  If anyone else in any business did this it would be labeled “bribery” and they would go to jail.

               It comes down to just plain greed and any member of congress that takes  dime for his or her vote should be ashamed.
