re: #28 Stormageddon, Dark Lord of All

I might be a blind optimist, but I consider the NRA to be amoral. They’re not Immoral, nor are they Moral. But they also know the bottom line matters. If they don’t offer something but the usual platitudes, they know they’re going to lose a boatload of money.

I think the NRA will actually be constructive, not because they’re good guys, but because they don’t want to lose money.

In other words, any action taken by the NRA in response to Newtown is not because it’s right and decent, but because it will benefit them by taking some of the public’s heat off of the organization.
