See?  Siegebreaker is a perfect example of why gun control is necessary.  He's got experience shooting children, not to mention raping them.

So, if it's a lawful change, you would support it? Right?

Has he ever actually admitted to shooting them?

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

But Seedy, the people I grew up with, around, knew, and associated with were a Hunting Culture. Something very different from today's Gun Culture™. These cats didnt carry when they were not hunting or camping for example. But they wouldnt hesitate to blow a mother fucker away that was attempting to break in their house and/or hurting their family.

My step dad had twenty or so guns. Not one of them an assault rifle and only one was a pistol, a revolver at that. As a matter of fact none of the people I knew or knew of, had an assault rifle. If some knob had showed up at the hunting camp with an assault rifle, he'd have been ridiculed and run out of camp. It has been preverted.

I recall a conversation a while back (couple of years) with a knob co-worker. He was boasting that the rifle he was going to get for deer hunting was a Remington 700 Tactical. I just looked at him, called him and idiot and told him he didnt know the first thing about hunting. That is the perversion that is nowadays called the "Gun Culture".

I could go on and on with this perversion.

Then make a real statement.  Terminate your membership to the NRA.
Maybe if more members did that, NRA leadership would get the point and stop going full retard.

Hell, I own handguns, too.  But I'd never belong to that organization, exactly because of its leadership.

What sort of benefits does the NRA offer their members?

Insurance, a free hat, and monthly magazine. Plus some ranges/clubs require NRA membership.

This.

It's actually the most reasonable response for the gun owners of the Hunting Culture and Collectors in the US to make their point. I've said a dozen times that I want to learn to hunt, but I see no reason to join the NRA in order to get and use a hunting rifle. I couldn't, in good conscience, contribute to that kind of lunacy. If you want to rid yourself of the idiots, you have to give them a reason to do so. Someone like me isn't important to them, since I was never a member and they would just consider me a lefty nutcase if I sent them a letter. Members leaving - and telling them why they're leaving - would show them what really needs to happen.

Is there even another non-crazy alternative to the NRA?  Seems like rifle associations in the US would have to tend to go loony at some tipping point.
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

Nope. They're one of the strongest lobbying groups in the country.
