    Crucial. What NRA has more isn't money—it's organized, strategic, and yes, grassroots power. Diffuse outrage gets bulldozed by focused work.https://twitter.com/mlsif/status/915707039468408832 …

        You would think that gun enthusiasts would be more diffuse than families of gun murder victims

        What about the fact that they lean far from their constituents on key issues. Like if the AAA lobbied for leaded gasoline or something.

        Price guns out of the marketplace via liability insurance. More guns=higher insurance. You have the right to a gun, but you shouldn't afford an arsenal.

        Seems little doubt that it does have more money.

        The NRA tricks its members into thinking they represent gun owners. They represent the gun manufacturers. Expose the #scam
