Also, first 20 round magazine was on a girandoni air rifle made in 1780. Bill of rights-1791

(4,462 posts)I happily consider myself guilty as charged.
Using juvenile and lazy "guilt by association" tactics when confronted by inconvenient facts does not constitute substantive argument, is not in any was persuasive, and helps explain the lack of success of the gun control movement.
I would also remind you that the NRA has about 5 million members out of 80-100+ million legal American gun owners, to say nothing of gun rights supporters who don't own firearms like myself. When accusing close to 90% of non-NRA gun owners and supporters of agreeing with the NRA (e.g., like simple historical facts about firearm technology), all you accomplish it getting some of these people to consider membership. The NRA would like to thank you for your ongoing support.

(12,194 posts)No, whats morally bankrupt, is using a terrorist attack to push for gun restrictions which would not have prevented that terrorist attack.
Look in the mirror.

(4,462 posts)If you honestly believe anything I wrote demonstrated support for the NRA as an organization, you need help with basic reading comprehension. You need to learn that people can support gun rights without supporting the NRA, which as previously advised, only represents about 5% of gun owners.
It was you who brought-up the NRA, rather than actually respond to inconvenient, and fairly uncontroversial facts, about firearm technology. Again, accusing people of who don't agree with you of essentially being "NRA-sympathizers" is just lazy and mendacious. If you ever wonder why gun control is failing and the NRA manages to set the tone for the political and legal battle for gun rights, you need only look in the mirror.

(18,578 posts)...is more of an accusation than a refutation of any assertion they may have advanced.
Making unfounded accusations is so helpful in this discussion.
Thanks for the 1 post in 10 that isn't just a copy/paste of someone else's brain fart.

(18,578 posts)They are all more like examples of "how to render yourself irrelevant".
The Everytown/MDA group is just kind of a collection of "rent some demonstrators" or "protester temps".
Some of the others are simply "think-tanks who can be paid to agree with you".
