Since the massacre in Parkland, Florida, gun-control activists have pressured Apple, Amazon, and other streaming platforms to drop NRATV, and thereby join other companies that have cut ties with the National Rifle Association. The N.R.A.’s twenty-four-hour digital channel is a remarkable product, marked by an affluent look and a confident monomania; it keeps up the morale of loyalists primed to exalt the N.R.A.’s values, and it delights enthusiasts by investing guns with all of the glamour and valor its producers can muster. |

Built upon Instruments of Equality, you mean.
Just ask the 80 year old grandma who shoots an intruder, or the twenty-something college girl who shoots a sexual predator. Or even the 130lb pizza delivery boy who shoots a 190lb robber.
The whining caption of the lead photo is thus justified - you people SHOULD be disqualified from any 'debate'. |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
