I'm sure there are a lot of gunowners who are quite sensible sane and responsible people who deserve to have an organisation represent them that is also sensible sane and responsible, and wants proper gun controls and tests as rigorous as driving tests and all that knd of stuff.
I mentioned our motoring orgganisations here, the AA and the RAC, and though they have hangups about lowering speed limits, they do accept that there should be speed limits, and driving tests, and you don't find them being anti-seat belt and so forth.
So why don't the responsible gun-owners in the USA take over the NRA or set up something better?
