This must be a column they recycle every 18 months or so with a few minor changes and are required by some obscure law to run prior to an election year.

It's a match for the ones we read the rest of the time, about how the NRA and all its money is an evil power house that steamrolls even billionaires like Bloomberg. How they stop any and all gun control bills, even when Dems are in the majority with the Whte House and with 90% public support.

Now, suddenly the NRA is nothing to be bothered with electorally.

I wish you gun control "fans" would make up your minds.

NRA evil powerhouse? Or NRA Fading influence?

First you tell us that the NRA is the all powerful gun lobby that owns congress and that's why no gun control laws are passé, now you say it's not?
Which is it?

Some time soon, it will change from 'the nra is losing its grip on power" to "the nra owns congress".


Its just a matter of time. Anti-gun sentiment see-saws between those two pretty regularly.

Maine and Kansas just passed constitutional carry laws.

This map helps the rest of us sleep..

They have made the "fewer gun owners" part of their religious tenets.

Otherwise they'd have to accept that more people are buying guns for whatever reasons.

They studiously ignore places like Illinois where the FOID card is required for any gun or ammo purchase and over 500,000 new ones were issued in less than 2 years.

Each represents a first time potential gun owner. But you don't go through the multiple hoops with the Illinois State Police just to say you have a card.

Ok, if you say so............
