sorry dingaling. the nra is one of the biggest instructors of firearm ownership. they have educational classes for children and adults. just because they stand up against the lunatics who would like to completely disarm the American public does NOT mean they support mass murder or children being killed by another child. this is just a bunch of loony tunes pushing their agenda to take another step in the total disarming of the citizens of this country. you seem to be a member of the party who wants to usher in the new world government . I think your all anti - Americans . and shaft your one world government . this is something that will happen . if your a follower of satan . this is what your waiting for . world domination . a pretense of peace . although it will come to be . it will not last for long . but you have your happy day while you can .

One hundred and fifty two kids (152) were killed in schools by nuts with guns in the last three years. Now, the Libs and other Communists are swarming out of infested woodwork like termites at the first warm day of spring and screaming for Gun Control, Whatever that is supposed to be. During the same period nearly two thousand children died in auto accidents caused by drunk drivers. Why are all these Libs not screaming for Car Control, Beer Control, Gasoline Control, etc? Stupid, Stupid. And- it's worse. They breed. We should be thankful that the 2nd Amendment is here to stay. Armed - I am a citizen unarmed by law I am a subject.

But the NRA does have quite a large influence in DC to protect its gun-selling businesses by buying congress people.

The difference is that Republicans state that they believe in life in the womb but do nothing to help the fetus after birth. Better not to be born than to live a life of poverty and bias under conditions where the family cannot support this extra expense. Only the mother should be able to make judgment on this. It is the post birth conditions that the mother takes into consideration and Righties do not. It is they who are pulling back on moneys spent on education and social network agencies. Their philosophy is "Save the fetus but to hell with the person."

And people who deny science find it hard to believe that a brain can be mapped as far as which section is doing the processing, and it can tell scientists the difference between a brain that forms beliefs and one that disregards opinions and continues to process? It's becoming basic brain science to take people, have them answer questions, and look at the part of the brain that is active and doing the processing. How hard is it then to take a group of people who form beliefs that are set in concrete and another group of people who simply do not think like that and see what the difference is? The person who has formed a strong belief has a section that will light up when thinking about the belief that's already there, that's one part of the brain where information is stored. The person who also has an opinion (different than a locked in belief) will have that stored as well, then when presented with new facts that affects the already formed belief or opinion, the person who is fine with the belief will not actively process new information, doesn't need or want to. The person who's brain says that's BS and rejects new information because of the source or whatever will not actively process the new information at all because it doesn't see a need. The person who doesn't have beliefs locked in at all will have a part of the brain that processes new information kicking into gear, if the new information can't be refuted it goes into memory as a new reality because the already formed opinion was not hard locked into memory as something that can't be altered. The person who's brain works even though they already have formed an opinion, not a fixed belief, processes new information and will easily disregard the already formed opinion. There is a section of the brain that is working in one that doesn't in the other. Nothing wrong with that, it's just the way it is.

By understanding that this is happening, and forcing new thoughts about something already believed it exercises that part of the brain. How about if a person were hooked up to a machine and was told that information was not being processed because the brain already had formed a fixed belief? So knowing that there was new credible information the person would be forced to have to process a new reality that might alter an already held belief. I'm pretty sure that this would cause the person to get a headache when his beliefs were disrupted.

As you can imagine, people who form beliefs are rather opposed to accepting the notion that there is a part of the brain that doesn't work when beliefs have been already formed. Fake science and all that. They are hard wired to distrust science as a result, it's new information.

The science of the brain has gotten to the point where work is being done to implant processors directly to the part of the brain that processes new information, which then augments the brain's processing abilities into a kind of a computer like super processor. We will have a future where those that can afford it will create a generation of super brains. That is the reverse of people who have a processing section that doesn't respond when beliefs already exist.

Interesting idea, the day when facts could conflict with beliefs. At this point the two do not mix well.

It is scary that the democrats are all liers and corrupt but what is being done nothing Hillary is getting away with all this b******* the Clinton foundation has never been audited it's really scary to thiink she could have been our president she is the most ugliest woman I have ever saw she is involved in so much crap why is our government not doing anything about this why are they letting her Obama and all the Democrats getting away with all this crap and then they slammed our new president mr.
