Did we actually forget the money from the dun manufacturers themselves? Earlier on, I said, "So I think the influence comes from the fact that they built a large membership. It's a static voting block that carries weight in GOP policy. Actually, I think this has greater weight than the gun lobby, but sure, the people that make guns are going to be very interested in the primary group that supports gun ownership."
The gun manufacturers are part of the gun lobby. Still, I side with others who have pointed out that there are lots of people who simply support the 2nd amendment. Most of these people in turn, are very responsible gun owners.
And lots of people feel that the 2nd Amendment has been purposefully misinterpteted.

And lots of people feel that the 2nd Amendment has been purposefully misinterpteted. ..for 240 years with 240 years of legal precedent!? I don't disagree that there are people that feel that way, but really? And, if there are so many....get an amendment passed for clarity on the gun issue. In many of the areas where the left feels that the Constitution has been "misinterpreted", there has always been that amendment process available to them, yet they attempt to get their way through the shortcut of judicial activism. That is more akin to subversion. Luckily, we have the Supreme Court as the final arbiter. It is not the place for the lower levels of the judiciary to overrule long years of precedent because they FEEL different, but that doesn't stop them.
