@bluevirginia What a powerful statement from author @andyschmookler:
“[T}he NRA and its leader have been damaging America (by):
“1) Degrading the life experience of millions of Americans by leading them to live in more fear and rage because of the lies they’ve been sold;
2) Distracting the members of that army of one-issue voters into not noticing that when they vote to support the NRA on guns they are really fortifying the very plutocratic/corporatist force
“that has been keeping their wages stagnant and that has flooded our politics with money, taking power from the people and turning American democracy into a plutocracy.
“3) Assuring that the American bloodbath continues.
“4) And deepening the divisions among the American people — part of the “Divide and Conquer” at the heart of the strategy of the plutocracy and its allies in the Republican Party and the NRA.”
