Don't for a moment believe what ever they profess is their heart felt goodness for their momentary cause, cross their hearts, is what they sincerely care about. No, they're evil to their core.

Here's what they believe in: Getting... money, power, prestige and every other thing to get THEM ahead.

You, don't matter, except to help them get ahead.

If, you're naive enough to believe other wise you're just another sucker...

Then, I guess none of us ever need vote ever again. Why bother with being NRA (or GOA, or SAF, etc.) members. Why bother with anything. We should all just throw our hands in the air, and run screaming and crying, it would seem. Somehow, I just don't see things that way, and I didn't think that's why this forum exists. I guess I'm going to have to take a long break from here.

Again, people have said what the POLITICIANS can do to fix the problem, but obviously many of them don't care to do anything in that regard. I meant, what can WE, the average American citizens, do to fix the problem? Again, specific concrete items, not generalities. I vote for pro-2A candidates. I give what money I can to support said candidates, but I'm not a rich guy like Bloomberg. I explain how firearms ACTUALLY work to others on the internet so as to remove confusion and the outright lies told by gun banners. WHAT ELSE CAN I PERSONALLY DO TO STOP THIS STUFF? Snarky and sarcastic replies aren't doing anything to help this situation. We need SOLUTIONS. If someone smarter than I am can come up with something useful, then I will support it.

They most certainly will if it means they are not going to be able to put food on the table. Most cops don't hold firearms as a right.

It’s OK ..... the GOP will save us.

So, tell us what needs to be done to fix the problem. SPECIFIC THINGS, not generalities.

Agree 100%!

Why give up anything. What's next? 20 or 30 round mags?
Are some of us willing to give those up too?
Because I'm not...and won't.

I'm so sick of buzz phrases. No one is "giving up" anything, but the reality is we could well see bump-stocks "taken away" because the votes are probably there. Wake up people and see what's happening!!!! Bloomberg and Hollywood are pouring money into this effort and the media is helping to the fullest extent. We've never had this level of opposition before, not ever. It's a campaign of lies and distortion, but it's very well funded and they are playing on the sympathy factor of kids getting killed.

If you really want to make a difference, then start recruiting NRA members every single day. The NRA better be 15 million strong soon, or this is only going to get worse.

Mr. Cotton, I really don't care much about bumpfire stocks. However, I am in the group who worries that they will use that term as a giant umbrella to stop simple modifications like match triggers, or even a different shaped trigger than the one the manufacturer installed at the factory. Besides joining pro-2A organizations such as the NRA, what specifically can we do as individuals to make sure that, if bumpfire stocks are banned, that it's limited in scope to those exact items, and those exact items only?
