Not to nitpick, but 80 Million is a low estimate.

………………
Self-Reported Gun Ownership in U.S. Is Highest Since 1993Majority of men, Republicans, and Southerners report having a gun in their households

PRINCETON, NJ — Forty-seven percent of American adults currently report that they have a gun in their home or elsewhere on their property.
………………
Factoring the 76% of the population over 18 of 313 Million and taking the most likely under reported 47% (52% in later surveys) yields around 120 Million gun owners.

Nice story but it leaves something out.

The idea and concept that the American political system is broken. The financial elite own the politicians and the two party system offers the people a choice. But a choice of what?

A choice between two things chosen by the Elite and not the people.

In the case of Romney VS Obama it was a choice between two unworthy candidates and even then Romney was never supposed to win. He was just another tool of the Elite. Rampant voter fraud proves it.

Now the NRA seems to be in bed with politicians in order to “compromise” on gun registration.

There is no compromise. To legislate registration will immediately criminalize gun owners who have lost trust and faith in what is obviously and illegal and criminal political system.

Last week I considered joining the NRA as well as becoming a certified NRA instructor. This week that consideration no longer exists. I will not become a part of a “Sell Out” organization.

I am quite sure many NRA members are considering walking away as well.

This time after President Obama was re-elected I had saved up alot of .22lr,9mm,and .45 auto ammo.I’d like to say it was because I thought he might be re-elected.Though it was because I had been looking out for ammo sales as I wanted to attend some training facilities which I did.I attended Front Sight about 45 minutes oitside of Las Vegas in Nye County Pahrump,Nevada.I did the 4 day defensive handgun class.It was a good experience and I learnt alot I didn’t know so I could become a better pistol shooter and trained handgun owner.I took my S&W M&P .45 auto for the class.If you can I highly reccomend going to Front Sight Nevada for training.

At the end of Obama’s 1st term I really tried to think that he was for the people. Being a republican for many years I tried to think that maybe he was different and not the same old, same old democrat. When I got to the voting booth my gut finally told me he was a wolf dressed in sheep’s clothing. I went with my gut and voted republican again. Glad to know I can’t kick myself for being fooled. I am very glad that I did because the day after the election he took off his sheep’s clothing and unveiled his intention of taking away all of the 2nd amendment.

Just remember this. When a politician is asked if the support the 2nd amendment and gun rights and they hesitate, they are gun grabbers. There is no such thing as a gray area. Everything is black or white. You either support us or don’t. Keeping quite means you hope no one will notice that you have voted against us in the past. The NRA know how each person in congress voted throughout their whole career on guns. They tell us and we know to to vote for and who never to vote for again. There is going to be a house cleaning like no one has ever seen and it does not matter what party you are in, if you are not for us, you are against us and so gone. And if that does not work then we have another revolution to fight because the 1st one quit working.
