7. Wars have battles. The Battle of Normandy in WW2 had many bad days before total victory occured

There were battles lost
There was a big battle won.

Unfortunately hundreds, thousands will die.

Why can't the NRA just give it up now?
But their time is ending.
Like a panademic. It takes a while for a vaccine to be made, and distributed.

President Obama's speech today was a battle cry. I never heard of any national leader speak out so strongly agaisnt the NRA or any super pac like this.

The beginning of the end is coming.

But unfortunately many people will still die and be wounded.

The NRA and the gun folk know this, which is why they are trying so hard to hold on.
But we will win.

The hard right has a history of LYING. Dawson Leery Apr 2013 #1
