FAILED!
A life wasted on the futile effort of curtailing civil rights.
Hope she is judged fairly.
I do thank her for all the really cool weaponry I can now buy that filled the void after the ten dark years of pointless, ineffective regulation perpetrated by her in 1994. She really was central in rallying the gun community in defending our 2nd Amendment rights, and for that I am ever grateful.Chizzang wrote:Why would you berate a woman who experienced the love of her life being shottravelinman67 wrote:With gun ownership setting record levels, I believe it would be reasonable to conclude she

Unsurprisingly with all your flailing on these boards you are able to land a hay-maker. It was bound to happen eventually. Well played.travelinman67 wrote:And a VC killed my brother. So, according to Hippielogic, all Vietnamese should have been tried for war crimes.Chizzang wrote:

Its their entitlement mentality.

With all due respect, I think she was a manifestation of a common "syndrome." Something bad happens in somebody's life and they think they have to go on a crusade. Also, my own belief is that she basically used an incapacitated husband to further her own agenda and put herself in the limelight.dbackjon wrote:RIP to a brave lady

So her kid finds a 22 pistol, presumably in the home of someone they were visiting, and points it at her so she has to go on the warpath to screw with a bunch of other peoples' lives. Why of COURSE if your kid finds a gun in somebody's home when you're visiting that means we HAVE to do things like ban "assault weapons." And using her disabled husband as a prop to further her agenda? It was all for a "good" cause.But it wasn’t her husband’s shooting that led Mrs. Brady to call the NRA. The turning point for her activism came four years later, when their 6-year-old son, Scott, found what he thought was a toy gun and pointed it at his mother. She told him never to point a gun at anyone and, when he handed it to her, she found to her horror that it wasn’t a toy but a fully loaded .22 similar to the one used to shoot her husband.
“The maddest I’ve ever been in my life,” she told The Washington Post of the gun incident with her son that occurred during a visit to her husband’s home town in Centralia, Ill. “I was livid.”
