    A lot of people are, rightfully so, commenting that the NRA appears scared. But listen, they are a fear-based organization. The core ethic that drives them is fear. They stay afraid. They are afraid of everybody & everything but conservatives white people. Period.

        I hope they are afraid of white people like me. I just appeared on CNN International regarding my posting of the destruction of my personal AR-15. :)

        The core ethic that drives their *members* is fear. The core ethic that drives those who work at the NRA is profit.

        They should be afraid. These kids have had to learn to live in fear of their life and now they're going to teach all the legislators they bought and paid for how to learn to live in fear for their jobs.

        What I'm hopeful about is there seem to be a fair number of openly conservative white people who are finally taking firm a stand against the NRA. It might just be words, but it might also be the beginning of change. Let's hope it change.

        The only people afraid are the politicians up for election in 2018. #MidTerms2018 Congress has DONE NOTHING and the KIDS CAN VOTE THIS TIME! Vote Them Out! #FireCongress2018 Congress won't even get us #MedicareForAll! Do you REALLY BELIEVE they will do ANYTHING GOOD? Nope.

        Fear sells gunz. Period. This is ALL that the NRA cares about and even school shootings are fodder for their fear based profiteering.

        Until the gun manufacturers or arms dealers they represent are also afraid, the job is not done. Gun manufacturers put the @NRA spokespeople out their, but you don’t see the CEO of American Outdoor Brands Corporation on the news.
