As we live in a free market, and the NRA would like to have a 'piece' (no pun intended) of that .... and since their efforts to blame gun violence on video games (as well as "the bad guys") has been seen through anyway ...... they have now launched a shooting game.

https://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/arc ... -game.aspx

And since the second amendment calls for it ..... and we all need practice .....

The app includes what it calls “9 true to life firearms,” and allows players to download an MK-11 sniper rifle setting for 99 cents. The rifle can shoot 750 rounds per minute.
Raw Story (http://s.tt/1ypIy)

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2013/01/14/n ... d-targets/

750 rounds per minute is exactly what America needs ..... 'cuz the 2nd amendment and all that, ya know? freedom, liberty, rights, etc.

All the experts agree on gun bans.

Maybe living with the realization of how little freedom fom government in the old country was what caused the Founding Fathers of the United States to adopt these rules in order to protect US citizens from the tryanny of their own governments in the future.

Second Amendment: Right to bear Arms
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed

Third Amendment:Quartering of Soldiers
No Soldier shall, in time of peace be quartered in any house, without the consent of the Owner, nor in time of war, but in a manner to be prescribed by law.

Fourth Amendment
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.


If the Constitutional law of having your own and keep weapons to defend against the power of government needed the fourth amendment about siezure & the breaking of the third amendment in order to triple down on the breaking of the second amendment.

But they all have a commonality that caused severe hardship, cruelty of government over the people they became dictators over because the folks were unable to understand where things were going when the original bans took place . The actions are reenacted and some folks will gladly give such killers the reins one peg at a time. In the mean time death camps and grave yards become filled with dissidents who tried to turn back the dictators before they got that power and generations of folks became slaves to the dictators who had all the weapons.

Blood money.

LaPierre took home $960,000 from the NRA and related organizations in 2010; Kayne B. Robinson, the executive director of general operations, earned more than $1 million.

The irony is that these "experts" were supplied arms by military powers, including those that worked with the U.S. and aren't mentioned.

Not surprisingly, the same arms industry is behind lobbying against gun control but also lobbying for arms exports deregulation while providing more formidable armaments to police and military forces, including those that work for these "experts."

When the second world war broke out The Brits were training their home front with broom handles because they had no weapons to defend themselves with. They begged Canada , Austraila & the US for any type of weapondry they could supply. That is what happens when folks do not prepare as a country or as a man in his own castle or work place for defending yourself from an invasion of bad people.
