We speak of 'dark money' in politics; it is time to viral-ize the the 'red money' in society.
Red money flows through and stains many hands in many 'legitimate' businesses selling satisfactions to succor the desires of those who simply like-love the killing-machines. Guns as arms is not a spinoff-technology from some ancient, fun-loving hobbyist activity.

(6,351 posts)It seems like much more money than could be derived from the dues of NRA members.
I think the NRA has become a one-stop shop for lobbyists foreign and domestic who seek to influence or bribe U.S. politicians.
