The NRA uses the 2nd amendment as a means to more money and membership. No one is trying to take our guns away, but many buy into that fantasy and send their dollars to the laughing NRA.

On March 18, 2013, Chris Cox, Executive Director of the NRA Institute for Legislative Action, had an editorial published in The Hill congressional newspaper in which he said, " Shouldn't Congress and the White House be working to get mentally ill people and felons into the database so we can actually have a chance at preventing them from purchasing firearms?"
The entire editorial is available at NRA | A Universally Bad Idea
The NRA has a history of calling for congress to get the mentally ill and felons INTO the background check database.

Sorry. Absolutely not true. The NRA put provisions into the above that in fact caused it to be voted down. I am surprised that you did not know that. This is documented clearly about the trickery and lies from the NRA and even trying to turn it around in an attempt to bring back disalusioned previous members. If you like, I could help you with your research into the truth on this issue.
Send me a PM if you need more help, I will be out of the net for a while, but will get back with you as soon as possible.
