In reply to the discussion: A Raid on the Unspeakable [View all]I'm not anti-gun per say, but I recognize that the NRA is nothing more than the lobby for the weapons industry. And that by purposefully increasing the levels of hatred, fear, and paranoia, the weapons industry -- which is a part of the military industrial complex -- increases sales around the globe. And that includes the sale of military weapontry to the most angry and hateful people in the US.
