NRA Propaganda at "the Daily Kos"

1. The Big Picture

From the link in the OP:

Keep the Big Picture in Mind

The simple fact is that hundreds of laws have been challenged and upheld in the lower Courts post-Heller. For nearly six years since Heller only a few laws have been struck down. See e.g. Chicago, Illinois. Many pages in Heller were devoted to explaining that many forms of gun control are constitutional. The NRA would like you to forget that. The Supreme Court has had many opportunities to further expand gun rights into the public sphere and they have thus far declined to do so. Don't let anyone use NRA propaganda to convince you otherwise.

The NRA still wants people to think they have the power to sway elections and prevent good laws from passing. Their influence is waning due to several factors.

* Voters are becoming informed about gun law.

* Third-party organizations with money are entering the fight to hold elected representatives accountable for their votes.

* The NRA is being attacked from the far right by organizations like Gun Owners of America and The Second Amendment Foundation

The right-wing gun lobby is crumbling from its base up, and a new demographic of voters is emerging. In the not-too-distant future, the NRA and its apologists and supporters will be marginalized and made insignificant due to the movement toward sane gun regulation and control.
