The Second Amendment -- Time for a Rewrite


what eye thynk:    The Second Amendment was written to protect American lives from foreign enemies.  Instead, it has become a corporate sponsored vehicle for us to destroy ourselves from within.
  • Where are the leaders honest enough to admit we must change?
  • Where are the leaders fearless enough to stand up and tell the NRA "Enough!"?
  • Where are the leaders strong enough to say American lives are worth more than the money you pour into our campaign coffers?
  • Where are our leaders?

  1. The NRA is indeed a corporate sponsored entity, and has gotten sillier and sillier with claims of Assault rifles being hunting guns.
    But the multimillion dollar(dare I say billion dollar) industry has gotten as big as it did for only one reason. They have a market for their wares.
    Most of the rank & file members are good people and would agree with you on the assault rifle issue.
    BUT, they would fight you tooth and nail on any gun control regarding their personal side arms and/or legitimate hunting rifles or shotguns.

    There are an estimated 270,000,000 legal handguns in this country. And,"Yes, of course", the massacre of the 26 in Newtown struck these owners as hard as it did you & I.
    But all that killing did, was to reenforce,in their thinking, the need for the Armed Citizen.
    So what's the answer? I don't know if there is one.
