Yeah... What we need is a national guns-for-bullwhips exchance program... Seriously... I think yer on to somethin' here, Don...

The problem we have here is that nothin', under our current system ot corrupt lobbiest run goevernment, really can be done... The NRA rakes in millions from gun manufacturers and gun shop owners and people who think that the government wants to take away their guns... No, that probabaly more like billions of dollars... So a bunch of folk singers can have all the proper arguments for some sane gun control and guess what??? It's just a discussion amoung a bunch of folk singers... Like really has the NRA shakin' in their cowboy boots...

But realistically speaking, the NRA should be on the forefront of gun safety but they oppose every little thing that folks think up to make guns safer... I'd be willing to bet that if Congress tried to pass a law making it a felony to have unlocked up gins in houses where children under 6 reside the NRA would oppose that, too...Heck, they would oppose a law that fobids people from putting loaded guns in their babbies crib... I mean, there is no compromise in the NRA... They want their guns and that's it... No discussion just shut the fuck up or we'll put a cap in yer ass...
