Topic	NRA is offering MURDER INSURANCE incase you KILL Someone!!!
streamofthesky 10/20/17 3:58:26 AM #7:	Zeus posted... streamofthesky posted... I'm really surprised that Daesh (ISIS), the Taliban, etc... don't just donate money to the NRA. The NRA gets way more Americans killed than any of them could ever hope to manage, seems like the best possible use of their drug money, from their perspective. Considering the NRA kills nobody, it's a stupid claim. And, if you're talking about indirect contributors to death, they'd get far more bang for buck donating money to alcohol companies. After all, 40% of all violent crimes are committed by people under the influence of alcohol and 30% of all fatal car crashes are the result of alcohol. And pretty much every sports riot ever has involved alcohol. Yeah, I'm a teetotaler, so I'm not going to defend alcohol at all. But I'm not sure what giving alcohol companies money would really accomplish. NRA is a lobbying group, not a company, first of all. And what legislation would an alcohol lobbyist push for that could increase deaths? NRA meanwhile has seemingly limitless options, like arming teachers (for "safety"), then arming students (for "safety"), then move on to arming doctors and nurses (for "safety"), then perhaps chipping away at laws to track movement of guns through the "Iron Pipeline" (for "safety"), and getting larger ammo magazines allowed so you can fire off dozens of shots before needing to reload...cause you just can't be too "safe," you know? <cite>streamofthesky posted [p:888780402] in NRA is off...
