Repubs have got in bed with the NRA letting them control them and that is going to come back and bite them in the butt. These young kids aren’t playing. They want a change on gun laws and their voice is going to become real powerful when it comes time to vote. Repubs aren’t hearing them but they are the future. This fight is going to take a long time and unfortunately some more people are going to have to die. But I do think the eventual winner will be those who want the gun laws changed. So I vote in the poll that a new generation will make the difference. It won’t happen tomorrow but it will happen.

Let me also say… I do not now -nor have I ever owned a gun, But I have no problem with the 2nd Amendment, as the Founding Fathers CLEARLY intended it to be interpreted.

The nightmare we’re dealing with today is, IMO, the result of cynical, corrupt and evil charlatans (manufacturers of guns and ammunition, politicians and other stakeholders) who long ago decided to sell their miserable souls for money and power by deliberately perverting the 2nd Amendments True meaning and purpose.

I want to be among to first to say – I gladly relinquish my “right” to own a gazillion guns of ANY kind, especially high-powered assault weaponry.

And on a relayed note……

Georgia state Repubs may also want to consider this: .

Georgia punishing Delta over NRA stance won’t help Atlanta’s bid for Amazon HQ2″

Excerpt:
The unusual Georgia move to punish a corporation for a political stance by removing a tax break comes as Amazon considers Atlanta among the finalists for its HQ2

If the city of Atlanta still has a chance of winning the Amazon HQ2 sweepstakes over 19 other finalist metro areas, Georgia lawmakers are doing everything in their power to prevent it from happening. The latest was the decision on Thursday by Georgia lawmakers to pull a tax break for Delta Air Lines, which calls Atlanta home, after Delta was among the first major corporations to end discounts for NRA members.

Amazon is closing in on its search for a second headquarters, and a bill that punishes a company for its political leanings by repealing a tax break probably won’t sit well with the socially progressive Amazon as it compares the pitches, including tax incentives, that the Amazon HQ2 cities and states have put together.

“With the NRA showing its mettle by flexing its strength, what will it take to achieve real gun reform in the US?”

Young people, coming of adult age who are ready and willing to fight to save themselves and the lives of their future children.

“Will more children have to die, or will their lives never matter to the “I have a right to own my guns” crowd?”

Sorrowfully, Yes, more children will have to die -and God only knows how many more times before this madness ends. All across this nation, adults continue to FAIL to protect our most precious gift – Our children. And now many -if not most- of our children know that they cannot depend on Us.

“Could the moves by Delta Airlines prompt other companies to follow suit and put a bit of pressure on the NRA — or does it even matter?”

Frankly, I have little-to-no faith in American corporations to *do the right thing* when it comes to any major issue concerning to the welfare of the general public. But we shall see.
