Why are people against the NRA?

[TrentS]

im just very confused ppl are protesting to disban the NRA and get rid of guns. The NRA trains people to use guns safely and guns don’t kill people so why is everyone protesting against the NRA.

 

[TrentS]

Theres many articles online explaining this!

No I read them and they are irrelevant want to get peoples opinion “because they support guns.”They are also the biggest company for helping ppl become safe with firearms

High key you should of just googled this instead of creating a thread lmao. You about to get flamed the fuck out of, you won’t get real answers; just more toxicity

That’s fine. I have googled I just want peoples opinion not the way the news Skews things

I have 0 issue with the idea of what the NRA does, its practices are the part people don't like. ( Lobbying, etc.)

I have issues with the fundamentals of lobbying since it gets out of hand and becomes more of a bribe than its meant. This was all stuff I studied in business law, well the lobbying is at least. ( Just saying that the NRA is heavily known for their lobbying ).

guns don’t kill people

Hmmm so america doesn't actually have 31% of all mass shootings? and that's not because it has 48% of the world civilian owned guns? no correlation between those statistics? my whole life is a lie.

. Only hunters need guns really- they need them to provide meat and keep the population down so there’s no overpopulation with animals. Other than this I don’t really think people have a need for guns.

Using weapons for Self defense? Shooting as a hobby? Shooting competitively? Collectors collecting vintage guns? There are many other uses for guns.

Very simple. Their people around em are democrats who told them "guns are bad, the nra is bad" and they accept it.

Exactly, no need lmao. That’s stupid, lol.

Just because you don’t enjoy a hobby, doesn’t mean there is no need for it.

I'm going to tell all of you something right now. Making guns illegal is not an option. If you think this, you either 1. are close to mental retardation or 2. do not live in America. Hate to break it to you guys, but criminals do not follow the law. If you honestly think you can just take every Americans gun and make guns illegal, you have some sort of mental issue. A majority of Americans believe that guns should be allowed. Yes, some believe in more strict gun control than others (I'm not here to debate that, I know that some stricter gun control should be put in place) and others believe in almost no gun control. That being said, if you take away guns, you would have to pay every single American who LEGALLY has one the full purchase price of the gun, and America does not have that kind of money to pay off right now. On top of this, people would still have guns, and now the honest, hard-working American who has a gun in a big city because he lives in a bad area, will be defenseless when a criminal who does have a gun attempts to rob him. So again, if you genuinely believe that guns should be illegal in America, you should consider getting checked for mental diseases, as you are stupid as fuck.

Guns should be reserved ONLY for the military and police, no one would need them if only the cops and military had them. Sure there would be illegal manufacturing but it’s just an idea.

agreed

Exactly, no need lmao. That’s stupid, lol.

actually shooting is my favorite thing to do. I love hunting deer

well if no one has guns and ppl get them illegally imagine what happens when someone breaks in. Do i stab em. No i die

Just don’t let people have guns lol. People are fucking crazy, as well the NRA is conservative, they believe special needs people, mental unstable, and young children can have guns and anyone can just about get be able to get one. Lol, no. I ain’t ever touch a mofo gun in my life. Don’t need to, I have no reason. People don’t need guns they’re dangerous to not only themselves but to other people. Only hunters need guns really- they need them to provide meat and keep the population down so there’s no overpopulation with animals. Other than this I don’t really think people have a need for guns.

please explain what i do if i have no gun and someone breaks in.

Hmmm so america doesn't actually have 31% of all mass shootings? and that's not because it has 48% of the world civilian owned guns? no correlation between those statistics? my whole life is a lie.

When i get home im gonna yell at my gun and tell it to shoot and see what happens. Maybe my AR-15 will get up and shoot some place up. NAH without a person a gun doesnt work.

My opinion, about gun control in general, in the US we need to have more gun control, period. But I don't think we should base our gun control laws off of school shootings because, to be frank, they are quite irrelevant, compared to the number of other shootings we have here in the US.[DOUBLEPOST=1523455367][/DOUBLEPOST]Also with that said I think it is a terrible idea to just get rid of guns(right now that is), bad people would get them on the black market and good people wouldn't get them at all.
