Cutting off all communication with NRA sister

Anonymous
I just can’t anymore. These people need to be shunned.

NRA isn't the issue.

Enough with the drama. She doesn't need someone like you in her life.

I don't see why NRA is your only problem.

There has to be better regulations on guns. There has to be better education with exposing kids to violence early in their lives.

OP, you are entitled NOT to have to listen to any talk of hers re: guns and guns rights but certainly you are intelliegent enough and interesting enough to have other things to talk about. If this were a friendship choice, it's a choice.

Come on people, OP is being dramatic, anyone here disagree NRA and its money is the main problem in US? They literally buy politicians.

Oh, it's an issue. A BIG one. Certainly there are additional issues, but it is not at all dramatic to take serious issue with anyone who associated with them. - NP

The issue is our culture and parenting.

That makes no sense. It’s like blaming the gun not the shooter.

Oh my god OP. Are you also the same one that stopped all communication with her brother because he isn't vaccinated?

You sound dumb.

I’ve distanced myself from my gun loving family. I’m polite. I’ll attend family gatherings. But I’ve lost all respect for them. As far as I’m concerned, if you voted Republican, you killed those babies.

Actually all of them - court's interpretation of Constitution, NRA/money, politics, culture, low education level, idiots having more idiot babies, entertainment business that sells sex and violence... We are totally f'ed.

Stop blaming republicans. They didn't kill those kids. This was a very troubled young man who didn't get the help he needed from his parents/family, school and community. Lets start there.

Everyplace has troubled young men. Every place does not have republican policies allowing them to buy assault rifles.

If they didn't buy them legally, they just would buy illegal ones or find another option. Guns are not the problem, people are.

Strategies like the OP’s may be our only hope. Gun rights people need their selfishness called out and exposed…by family members, colleagues, followers. Their movement is facilitating the executions of children. I’m not saying we should shame responsible gun owners or hunters. But NRA enthusiasts and gun show attendees? People who have personal arsenals? Gun lobbysits? Those who proudly want assault weapons on the consumer market? Yes. Shaming them is the only way forward. Their proclivities need to be seen as niche, cruel, greedy and most of all *backwards*.

We’ve made huge societal strides on issues as varied as corporal punishment in schools, animal welfare and gay rights. Public perception must change and it can begin within families, painful as that may be.
