I am an Law Enforcement NRA Instructor, and NRA civilian Pistol Instructor, NRA In the Home Protection Instructor, a SWAT Instructor, a Florida State Wide Firearms Instructor, and a Retired Federal Officer and that is still the goal of the NRA “making gun owners better marksmen, more responsible with handling, storing and basically making the country a safer place.” It always has been and will continue. I do it weekly.
Yes the NRA is a Powerful Lobby as is rightly necessary to ensure that US Citizen rights are not infringed upon.
I don't believe that in this day and age any Gun Ban is wise. Especially not the so-called Assault Rifles because in truth Americans do not have them readily accessible to them.
As "An assault rifle is a select-fire (either fully automatic or burst capable) rifle that uses an intermediate cartridge and a detachable magazine. Assault rifles are the standard service rifles in most modern armies. Assault rifles are categorized in between light machine guns, which are intended more for sustained automatic fire in a light support role, and submachine guns, which fire a pistol cartridge rather than a rifle cartridge."
As civilians most of us do not have these. So what they are discussing here is a total farce and an out right lie they are trying to push on the American public.
Not to mention exploiting these tragic deaths to push forward their agenda of chipping away the rights guaranteed in The Constitution the USA.
It also appears that want to take it further this time and start paving the way to eliminate freedom of speech and next will be religion.
The 2nd Amendment of The Bill of Rights was included in there at the founding of The US for a reason. It was to insure that The American System could continue on.
It has nothing or ever had anything to do with hunting rights.
As far as loop holes at the gun shows or anywhere that should not be banned either. There should be no list of who has guns in the US anywhere. It’s actually against the Law to have that type of database in Florida.
If a person does not want to have gun it is there right but don't tread on the rights of those who want to insure the Founding Fathers wishes and exercise their rights as American to protect themselves in the process.
I train Lawful Citizens, Military, and Law Enforcement Officers all who are very Pro Gun and very much against any restrictions on ownership of any sort to include type, caliber, or magazine capacity. As is evident that the majority of Americans do as well being that they have cleaned out everything in shops nationwide.
Because a ban only is aimed at lawful ownership since it is already illegal to commit mass homicide and as you can see making it illegal did not stop the person from doing it.
The true fear lays really at not being able to force the will of the ruling on the citizens. That's why the 2nd Amendment is in The Bill of Rights. I can train an expert marksman it an hour.

I don't believe the word database is in the Bill of Rights, but if a firearms database is illegal in Florida, the nation should follow their lead. I think it says "The Only Crime Free State in The Union" right on their license plates.
That is also pretty impressive that he can train an expert marksman in an hour.
