3. The NRA

and their apologists and supporters vehemently oppose any form of accountability for guns (national registration, background check for ALL sales) because that would help stop the flow of guns to the "bad guys."

Without "bad guys" the "good guys" would have no excuse for purchasing more guns and ammunition under the pretense of a need for self defense.

The NRA and their gun manufacturer pimps are promoting a domestic arms race by supplying both the criminals and other anti-social misfits (through "private" sales) and the gun nuts who are wannabe vigilantes, while raking in huge profits from the death of over 30,000 Americans a year.
