It's a lie. We didn't have the votes. Unlike the yappy little dogs who do nothing, the NRA fought a losing battle because gun owners didn't have the votes to stop Brady.
Take your shoes and socks off so you can count better. When the NRA fought against Brady they did a head count for and against the bill. Gun Owners were outvoted. We lost our gun rights because most gun owners do nothing to help their rights. It's people like the members of the NRA who have been fighting a losing battle for the last forty years. We finally are making some headway only to see whiny little crybabies who have nothing for their rights except bitch.
