#BoycottNRA

usually on boycotts like this, the pro gun crowd will just stop shopping at the companies doing this. they are catering to the loud, not the most people and the people who care will just stop shopping at the places making this "social stand".

The NRA certainly has a lot of pull in congress, because they paid for it, but the reality is they only have about 5 million members. That's only 1.6% of the population. Most gun owners are not members and don't support their tactics.

Reality check:
5 million NRA members, $984,152 in campaign contributions, and 1.5 million on lobbying in 2013 and 2014.
What about unions? 14.5 million members, $150 Million on campaigns, and 1.7 BILLION on lobbying in 2012 alone. Who do THEY "own"? What did they buy?

The NRA always buys, according to gun haters. Did it EVER occur to them that the legislators actually hold the same values as the NRA?

Probably not.

You mean the legislators hold the same views that 97% of population disagree with, just like the NRA?

Wow. He is almost at half approval. How many days does that make so far? Do you think it will last another week?
and where was obama at this point in his presidency again?

I'm not sure. I do know that since he has been president, on average, Trump-0 is the lowest rated president in the history of presidential popularity ratings. He's not rated so low right now, Big deal, you don't expect his temporary acceptable rating will last for more than a few days do you?

Trump and Obama have the same approval rating after their first year, at least according to one poll

dunno. i'm just a spectator in all this but funny it's going UP in a time of major controversy and crisis. cant make the trump haters feed good about getting him out of office one day before his time.

Yes. One, and only one poll showed those results. Of course Rasmussen regularly reports Trump ratings to be much higher than any other poll. It's almost like they are purposely faking their results.
oh - so we're back to when you don't like it, trash the source. :)

you're so cute when you're predictable.

Sorry, but when there are several polls at the same time, and all but one shows the same thing, I tend to view that one as wrong.

Don't care why. They oppose background checks, and 97% of the country wants them.

Can you point to a single credible poll that agrees with Rasmussen on that subject?
 
Seeing these incredible high school students speaking out and taking immediate action for gun control is the only truly encouraging thing I’ve seen in this country since that time we had a real president.

KEEP GOING. WE LOVE YOU.

they don't oppose background checks overall. they oppose doing them w/o due process included.

Yes 97% approve background checks and that includes the majority 74% of the NRA members.
 
By the way the person actually responsible for the shooting was named Nikolas Cruz, in case anybody forgot. If they even knew.
