NRA: Selling guns always No. 1 goal

Has anyone noticed how the NRA uses all of the mass shootings as an opportunity to manufacture and sell more guns? The bottom line for this group seems to always involve more guns.

President Trump’s solution for school shootings? More guns in schools. I hate seeing all of these shootings turned in to opportunities to sell more guns.

Common sense seems to be to ban the sale of assault rifles. I do not see the need for these weapons of war outside the hands of the military and perhaps law enforcement. Background checks for felonies or mental health issues also seem logical.

I wish that all politicians would stand up to the NRA and use common sense. Guns for teachers? Pay incentives for teachers to carry guns? Really?
