What's Wrong With America Shown In This One Tweet

She was downright giddy at the prospect at the surge in business that no doubt came her way.  I promise she wasn't the only one.
Because the first thought of too many people in this country after a massacre isn't "Oh My God, That is Horrible!"
It's "Oh My God, I Better Get More Guns!"
Then they will hand over a fortune to a lady like this and buy even more guns because THIS time, they will be told, Congress will be motivated to take their guns.
Never mind that after every mass shooting there are successful efforts by the gun lobby to LOOOSEN gun restrictions.
Never mind that the only two gun laws that our president, (the man they swear is after their guns), has ever signed actually gave MORE gun access.  
And never mind that there has been record gun sales in our country every year since Obama has taken office. (See the despicable display at the front of this lady's gun shop).
None of these facts matter.  The members of the NRA range from easily-frightened to downright paranoid; so when Wayne LaPierre tells them that THIS time Congress will order government agents to confiscate guns, (so buy more and give us money), they will believe him.  The fact that this very same Congress is so whipped by the gun lobby that they can't even muster a simple majority to require a basic background check or even allow data to be gathered on gun deaths is lost on these knuckle-dragging idiots.  
The net result of all this is that ever crazier people will be allowed to get ever deadlier weapons.   Right now, you can even buy a goddamned flame thrower for your arsenal if you'd like.  NO ONE IS TAKING YOUR STUPID GUNS.    
is it paranoia or just the idea that the old west is back and i'm strapped for the occasion pearl handles and all, ignoring factual evidence to them being more like;y to be the victim because of that gun, republicans and NRA well they think if you are a victim you just need to buy more guns and if that doesn't solve your problem you evidently didn't buy enough.
