11. Not in my world.

The more abusers that lose their rights to carry guns the better. The more people that can't control their anger that lose their rights to carry guns the better.

As I noted, the NRA is kicking and screaming while getting dragged to do the right thing with regards to domestic violence. Are they there yet? No. Have they reversed one of their major positions? Yes.

Per that major position, you are the one that said 'Convince the NRA' and then posted a link to info that shows they have moved in that direction, albeit not enough. Somewhat of a self debating link. Perhaps, "Convince the NRA to complete the job" would have been a more clear response, but in the world of the internet tubes a simple misunderstanding.

Do you have detailed info on what the LA back story was on keeping daters and chokers out of the bill? I'd guess it was linked to some other wording that the LA legislators had a problem with as I don't see much of a pro-choking voting block out there. Note, I'm skipping any LA jokes. Did it have anything to do with evidence of an assault which kind of ties to the old problem of how does a woman prove rape if she didn't get beat to crap during the rape?

This is the kind of reform that provides clear improvement and that can garner support across the board as it removes guns from criminals. Let's team up to solve the solvable problems and we might get to a place where citizens have guns and the USA does not have a gun problem.
