So you think that maybe if the "liberal" media had shown lots of scenes of children killed by us bombs and such during the Iraq war it might have changesd America's attitude about the war?

Probably, but it'd also harden people against those images in the future. I know it made me apathetic towards violence.

What does that have to do with the price of tea in China? We're talking about the power images have to change behavior. No one is talking about legislating the NRA away.....they're talking about changing attitudes so that no decent human being would even want to be associated with extremist nuts, like the NRA and you know what.....it will probably work and that's what scares the shit out of the NRA fanatics.

wow....talk about extremest nuts....:lies:

It was quite an elaborate piece of propaganda to falsely blame the NRA for some mentally ill nut that killed 20 kids......its both sad and amazing that sane thinking
people could associate the two....false equivalence is putting is mildly...Goebbels would be proud of this one....

Like blaming the moon for sunshine.

Actually I became apathetic in Iraq when I saw violence on a daily basis. Or maybe it was growing up in Detroit. Either way, media had nothing to do with it.

What's really sick about what has happened to the NRA is that they were once a great organization. I was once a member of the NRA. I took my required fire arm safety course from a local NRA affiliate when I got my hunting license at 15. I joined the NRA when I joined a local gun n rod club when I was 18. Helped out on a number of conservation projects and built networks with other outdoor sporstmen through the NRA. Things started to change in the late 70's when a very well organized group of right wing extremist took over the board of directors of the NRA in only what could be described as a hostile take over. Prior to that the NRA was very much a hunters advocacy and conservation group like Ducks Unlimited. Now they are the zero tolerence 2nd ammendment fanatics and right wing shills for the Republcian party. Many of us who quit the NRA in disgust (Including President George H. W. Bush) over their extremism have joined organizations, like Ducks Unlimited, that are what the NRA used to be like before they decided to become a bunch of out of touch wacko fanatics.

So defending the 2nd Amendment and the entire Bill of Rights makes you an out of touch wacko fanatic.???

You a sick asshole up to your eyeballs in the Koolaid.
 
I quit a shooting/hunting club because the Tea Baggers took over and just talked politics and was working to mke NRA membership a requirement of being a club member.

This is why you and I have been fighting lately, you make absolutely asinine assumptions about me that have no basis in fact. I've been a member of the ACLU for way longer than I've posted on this board, I suppose you think they're anti-constitution.
