They will listen when a shitload of them are voted out of office.
I guarantee that will get their attention.
And not until that happens, unfortunately.
Nothing will change their minds except the realization that they are going to be gone from Congress.
Only then will they stop worshiping the "golden calf" of the NRA.
The students of the Youth Rebellion have the right idea.

Every time you open your mouth you sound more and more DUmb. Keep up the good work.

Ya gotta love how they all treat the NRA like it is some big, singular, entity, instead of it being 4MM~ individual ... who vote in huge percentages!
I certainly hope they all jump on the "We'll take your guns if you vote us into office" bandwagon. November would be practically a sweep.
I just wish they would answer a simple question;
Knowing the NYPD has a 'hit' rate of +/- 18% in a shoot out;
What odds would you prefer to take? 0% chance of shooting back and protecting yourself/students/family ... or somewhere north of 0% up to and including an 18% chance?
They don't like that question. I've been debating an idiot on FB asking this same question.

Between being against the tax cuts and wanting to take away everyone's weapons, they are practically giving the mid-terms to the Republicans.

Except they can't vote and have no money. And they need to be in bed by 10 o' clock. :loser:

Which is why they wanted to dumb down the voting age yet again to 16. Anyone remember the years of 18-21? Be honest. I left home at 18 for college. Next thing I remember I was 21. What happened in between is a faint memory of searching for answers and usually finding all the wrong ones. :cheersmate:

I'm a conservative who lives in California. I'm outvoted 70%-95% of the time. I do not let those votes determine my views.
That said, good luck transmogrifying that WHEN into present reality, kt.

Another reason why the Kentuck and his ilk are called DUmmies. Politicians, unless running in a liberal cesspool area, will not come across as anti gun. If they do, they stand literally no chance of getting elected. Even people who are not gun people understand giving away freedoms is a bad idea. If you strike away the 2nd Amendment, the rest will fall quickly.

I will take a 100% chance of reasonably defending myself against a gunman.
I can't help but wonder if the coach/unarmed security guard wished he had a gun as Cruz burst into the classroom, I would bet the house that he did.

A guarantee? Bank on it?

Following in the failure of Wee Willie Pitt, huh Kentuck?

Dems want gun control, but worry it could cost them midterms
By Amie Parnes and Mike Lillis - 02/22/18 06:00 AM EST
Democrats mulling how to approach gun control on the campaign trail this year are weighing their tough history on the subject against the burning politics of the moment.
The killings of 17 people at a Florida high school has led to an outpouring of student protests and new energy for the gun control movement. Polls show almost unanimous support for an expansion of background checks.
But the issue is a delicate one for party leaders hoping to flip both chambers in this year’s midterm elections by defeating Republicans in conservative-leaning districts where tougher gun laws can be radioactive.
As the issue continues to dominate the headlines, some Democrats back an understated approach, particularly with vulnerable Democrats like Sens. Heidi Heitkamp (N.D.) and Joe Manchin (W.Va.) up for reelection in red states.
“It's certainly more of a base issue than in years past,” said one Senate Democratic aide who works for a senator who has been mentioned as a 2020 presidential candidate.
Go for it, Ken****.

Stepping back a little ...
* Gun confiscation is a losing issue, but Ds embrace it;
* Trump's tax cuts are benefiting 10s, 100s of millions of Americans, but the Ds dismiss and condemn it;
* Dems' embrace of DACA and holding budget bills hostage to it puts the interests of illegal aliens over the rights of US citizens and legal immigrants;
* Trump's rollbacks of Obamian hyper-regulation is unleashing economic growth, but the Ds condemn it.
How many winning issues are the Ds going to hand to the Rs?

The “students of the Youth Rebellion” are useful idiots.

Shortly after the attack I saw a student interviewed who said that lives could have been saved if the coach had had his gun. I can't find the interview now, but it made me believe that the coach may have had a CCW but wasn't allowed to carry.

You can say that again.
My problem with the NRA is that for too many years, they snuggled up with dirt bag pieces of shit like Dingy Harry Reid. Dingy Harry had a B rating with the NRA. The kind of scum bag who will strip away every other one of your rights will eventually get around to taking away your guns.
As the Tea Party Express rolled into Searchlight on Saturday, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid wasn’t home. Instead, he spent his morning at the grand opening of the Clark County Shooting Park, firing a shotgun at one of the facility’s new ranges.
“Everyone has said this is the greatest park in the United States of America, but I say it’s the greatest gun park in the world,” Reid said.
Reid helped to secure land and $61 million for the 2,900-acre facility under the Southern Nevada Public Lands Management Act. He was joined at the ribbon-cutting ceremony Saturday by National Rifle Association of America Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre, Rep. Shelley Berkley, Rep. Dina Titus, state Sen. John Jay Lee and Clark County Commissioner Tom Collins.
