Gun Control & RKBA
In reply to the discussion: YES!!!!! Bernie supports repeal of PLCAA!!!!!! Fuck the NRA!!!!!! [View all]DonP
(6,185 posts)49. So ... you don't actually do anything to support gun control. Kinda figured that.
Pssst! Here's a little hint from the real world. Posting "FUCK THE NRA" repeatedly doesn't really do anything but make you feel all warm and fuzzy. Doesn't even piss anybody off. Least of all the 5 million plus dues paying members they have.
To achieve anything beyond looking in the mirror and telling yourself how cool you are to be a gun control supporter, you have to get involved at a personal level. It seems you are just one more "Keyboard Kommando" on gun control.
And of course, pretty much a laugh riot, as has been pointed out to you several times before.
As a result your POV is irrelevant to the issue and the conversation.

OP
It means that Bernie listens to the people. That he has the flexibility to be President.

All 3 of the Democratic candidates for President, yes. Democrats are united on PCLAA in 2016.

No. Only Hillary is a flip-flopper when she changes her opinion. When Bernie does it

So, again, did you mean to say "under the bus with Bernie" or was that sarcasm?

Yes, it is necessary. Especially for a candidate critical of corporate power and influence.

Iowans know that Trumps xenophobia would only mean more episodes of ethnic cleansing here in Iowa.

Hillary's allowed to evolve on every issue. Bernie changes on one and it's a flip flop.
