Isn't that what happened last time? The NRA was all "everyone should be able to carry," and the Black Panthers said, "You got it." Then the NRA started screaming about gun control.
Just an old lady hunch, but I am predicting that within the next 5 years the NRA will begin promoting gun control laws. They hold power by creating fear. When they can no longer trade on the fear of losing guns, because any 15 year old can make a gun, then they will fall back on their secondary boogie man, an armed minority. I am betting that the new, retooled NRA will campaign that by law, only responsible and trained persons (card carrying NRA members) should own guns. Coincidentally these members will be mainly rich, Republican and Christian. Think I'm joking about this? I am not. --s6
I was playing an rpg with friends last Sunday and the setting was Texas. We joked about equpiment and wondered if there were gun vending machines there.
...Are there?
You'd think you could at least by ammo from a machine. Say, a couple of bullets of suitable length, in one of those plastic bubbles they use for small toys.
Or, one of those claw machines. This would make it more of a challenge, rather than just putting money in.
"If you are too drunk to grab bullets, go home and sleep."
particularly useful at this terrible, terrible time. maybe we can all talk about it some time soon? but not now... it's much too soon.Thoughts and prayers.
