It’s easy, they don’t own guns (or if they do, they won’t admit it)
Two Communist comrades having a discussion
Igor: Ivan, if you had two houses, you give me one house?
Ivan: Ya, Comrade Igor
Igor: Ivan, if you had two cars, you give me one car?
Ivan: Ya, Comrade Igor
Igor: Ivan, if you had two pigs, you give me one pigs?
Ivan: Nyet, Comrade Igor, I have two pigs!

I fear that this is creating a division. I follow Hikok45 and many have posted their displeasure with him and the NRA for the stance they are taking. Saw quite a few claiming they are canceling their NRA memberships and going elsewhere. Cutting off their nose to spite their face comes to mind.

Personally I think I'd rather have suppressors and national reciprocity than a bump stock. It could be looked at that having bump stocks regulated by the ATF is a good political move of the part of the NRA. They (we) are hit on all sides, everyone and everything that you can think of (media, politicians, entertainment, protestors...) has blamed the NRA. Now they get away with this only because many people allow these forces to be their education. So even our "innocently ignorant" friends and family and their friends and family and so on and so on...is a another hit. Anyway, to be honest I think of a bump stock as a novelty item, and up until this shooting I didn't think of them at all. If the NRA decides to take a hard stand for a novelty item, they (we) could end up falling on our sword. If we should die I at least want it to be worthy! I could go on, but before you disagree think about my position and also I am not saying that other views are invalid by any means.
One last thing, even if the majority do disagree with the NRA's position, is this something worth canceling membership over? I still think the NRA does more good than the mistakes it has made. We need to strengthen it in case this is a mistake so that we have the means to recover. Our enemies will see our displeasure with the NRA and capitalize on the division and weakness. We should never show our hand to those that will use it to slap us.
