If you really think that guns cause so many issues and that guns are out of control, then why do anti-gun groups have so much trouble getting people to join their cause?

The NRA only has 4 million members. 1.5% of the USA population.

I am no fan of the NRA as I have posted here many times, but it seems really odd that if guns are really a serious issue that Americans are worried about, that you cannot get four million people to support a Brady type group.

Studies report between 30 - 50% of homes have a gun. That would still leave millions of homes with no guns. Why, if American thinks there is a huge gun issue, would there non-gun homes not organize and fight the NRA?

Maybe the anti-Gun people are a very very very small percent of Americans. Or anti-gun people might vote in polls, but not really want to spend any money on the cause.

More proof that America does not have a gun problem.
