15. If change will come from the American people as the President says...and 90+ percent of them...

...wanted stricter gun laws - and STILL DID NOT GET stricter gun laws, then I'm sorry but . . .



It's evident given this situation that change MUST come from CONGRESS and that change will ONLY come when the NRA is decoupled from that governing body - no influence. No money. No lobbying. Nothing. THAT is where the change has to happen. The NRA must be made impotent to be able to foist its minority agenda upon the majority of Americans, when the majority of Americans want something completely different.

THAT. IS. NOT. DEMOCRACY.

THAT. IS. NOT. REPRESENTATIVE. GOVERNMENT.
