Data Show Highest Interest In NRA Membership
Posted: Mar 02, 2018
The publicity onslaught against the National Rifle Association has been aggressive to say the least. Clearly someone somewhere decided that the key to winning the gun control debate was to concentrate negative sentiment on the nation’s leading 2nd Amendment advocacy group. Rallies, placards, social media and townhall talking points have gone beyond policy disagreement and tried to label the NRA a terrorist organization. What to social media data show about the effect of these efforts? In a word, ‘recruitment’. Look at the data below and you’ll see that after an initial spike in searches about the Florida shooting, after a week that search declined and searches about the NRA increased. Here’s the data:
The attention could be a delayed reaction to the shooting, and not driven by the rhetorical war against the NRA. It could be that, but it probably is not. The data below show that the initial take off in NRA searching coincided very well with the CNN Townhall event which featured the whole spectrum of counter-NRA messaging. However, not long after, interest in the CNN Townhall tailed off while NRA Membership interest continued upwards. The data also show, that it is NRA membership interest, not just generic NRA interest that followed this pattern.
In other words, as Americans saw mass media attempting to delegitimize an organization focused on defense of a key provision of the Bill of Rights, they responded by researching how to join that organization.
The data below show NRA membership persisting and even growing after interest declined in some of the key advocates of gun control who were getting heavy play in the press.
The order of magnitude of interest in the topic is rather extraordinary. The recent spike in interest in NRA membership is larger than anything which has ever appeared in the data. The only spike which even comes close occurred in 2013 in response to wide calls for gun control in response to a combination of the reelection of President Obama and an announcement of an aggressive push by the new administration to advance a wide-ranging package of gun control proposals. The theory is cross supported by the fact that the searches in regard to NRA membership correlated closely with search terms about buying a gun.
The American people are a surprisingly stubborn lot. We don’t like to be told what to do, and being suspicious by nature, we prize liberties in direct proportion to the intensity of attempts to undermine those particular liberties. This suggests that if such proposals ever broke through and showed real signs of passing gun control, that interest both NRA membership and gun purchases would likely rise dramatically.
Off course.
Each time there's a mass shooting, each time the gun-control issue come back in the news, gun sales, there's a spike in gun sales and NRA membership. These guys LOVES mass shootings, they are great for their business.
The day American will feel safe it's gonna be terrible for the NRA because people will buy much less guns. So they must make sure that it nevers happen. That's why they don't wan't any kind of gun control, why they oppose mandatory background checks for every gun purchase, banning mentally disabled people or domestic abusers to own or buy guns, etc : because they benefit from people's fear.
NRA-backed bill aims to keep guns from the mentally ill
Aug 8, 2015 5:32 pm EST
On the cusp of James Holmes's sentencing, Texas Republican Sen. John Cornyn is sponsoring a bill to help states better report people known to be mentally ill to the FBI database of individuals prohibited from buying guns. The bill has garnered support from several organizations, including the National Rifle Association.
They pissed off all of the people who care about children getting shot in schools.
School shootings can be all but eliminated. But doing it the same way we secure airports and the U.S. Capitol doesn’t forward the agenda of disarming the American public.
And where the fuck are schools going to come up with for that kind of security? Unless of course melania starts laying some golden eggs. Uneducated trump base will come up will all kinds of bull shit propaganda.
There are plenty of veterans and law enforcement officers that have already stated that they would be willing to volunteer to provide security at schools. Teachers have stated they would take on the responsibility for the extra pay.
Gotta love the low IQ Obama base.
You trump supporting lawyers are pathetic.
It would take at least tens of millions of volunteers to have a security system similar to airports in all schools in America. And you want them to “volunteer” just for a pay raise?? How about providing additional health coverage and life insurance. I am sure if the “volunteers” die protecting school children they would like to make sure that their family is taken care of.
What about teacher gun training? Who is going to pay for that? Who is going to pay for psychological evaluation of armed teachers and volunteers… which teachers are mentally sane enough not to turn into active shooters themselves?
Our national debt has risen from 5 trillion in 2001 to 21 trillion now. We have over 200 trillion in unfunded liabilities. Now the loony left are concerned about spending. If we can’t spend money to give our school kids the same protection that Nancy Pelosi and Mitch McConnell enjoy what can we spend it on? Once these would be mass murderers realize that schools are no longer gun free zones, they’ll move on to places that are.You trump supporting lawyers are pathetic.

These assholes are pure pot-stirring propagandists for profit. Journalistic integrity = zero.
Those are most assuredly NOT the main "goal" of liberals. Jesus H Christ ...smh
NRA would not go with that.How about this. Like a driver's license, permit with a licensed holder to handle and hunt and target at registered ranges and hunting grounds. Age 25 to get a license. NRA would go with that. Any takers?
