With all the fear mongering by Republicans, right wing media and the National Rifle Association (NRA) on reasons why our nation should not have a national background check system for gun buyers, even with 90 percent of the nation in favor of it, the NRA said no, and every Republican in the Senate and even a few Democrats voted in favor of the NRA and against the demands of our nations citizens.
... is nothing more than a pack of lies.
Exactly! The article is one lie after another. I wish we had a database of all gun owners so we could make direct contact with somewhere around 125 - 150 million Americans (not just the 80 million who will still tell a stranger they own a gun). The NRA has its own membership list (5 million +, not 3 million as the liar stated). We probably do buy mailing/emailing lists from people, but that's hardly a database as implied. We have no information on what guns people own.
Using the Examiner as a data source is like asking a liberal Democrat what he/she thinks about something. I would say lying liberal Democrat, but that would be redundant.
