When I was in high school in the city of Chicago (South side),
I can remember going to the Sears store sporting goods department two blocks away,
and looking at all the rifles and guns on display (they weren’t locked down).
The NRA was around then and for many years before (NRA founded 1871),
but there where no mass school shootings.
Not even rampant gun violence on Chicago's southside!
