MItt Romneys funding from the NRA

The NRA has paid (R) Mitt Romney $21,076,917.00 to be in favor of guns

That’s a whole lot of cash for Mitt.

If you want to put a stop to guns and the pain and death caused by guns then stop the cash flowing from the NRA and stop Senators voting in favor of guns and assault rifles.

You have to stand up. Talk about it. Vote for the change.
Thing is that so many senators are getting that kickback for voting down common sense laws. The Democrats don't want your guns. They aren't going to take them away. Obviously they can't make people behave, and granted nobody can. But reasonable and sensible laws are usually ok with reasonable and sane people.
This is a voting year. It's your duty. It's all you can do besides talk. Use it as you see fit. It's your voice. Well if gerrymandering doesn't nullify it. Like in Texass.

@kentex35 you think the parent of a gunned down kid is going to hang their grief on a vote?

@Tastyfrzz no I don't. I can't imagine their grief. All I can do is hope to make an intelligent decision that will lead to the good of the whole. I don't really hate guns or the owners. I once qualified third highest on the range when I was an active duty marine and that was 3rd of a group of a hundred other marines. But most people don't get that kind of training and the safety they demanded.. I never saw one accident and they happened in sure but as an infantryman I probably ran a half million rounds through different rifles. It's always something when someone gets killed in an accident. And it usually starts with,"I didn't know..." That's all I'm asking is to find some common denominator that it politicians can agree on that will save lives. That's all. It's a free country I don't want your gun and I don't know anyone that's coming to get them. I've heard the boo stories that one part is going to take them away. And it's those that believe that that are most likely in need of a bit more training. Of training makes you better why not? What if it's your kids laying there. What would you suggest?
