Some questions on gun control:

Could the NRA write legislation that would diminish the incidences of mass murder?
Would Diane Feinstein (or anyone else on the left), who obviously knows little about firearms, listen if the NRA tried to educate them on the topic?
What could the NRA do to be accepted at the table in discussions about gun violence?

The reason for these questions is that my liberal friend thinks the NRA should "take the lead" in addressing gun violence. I say wherever the NRA has taken the lead, the left ridicules it or dismisses it. It seems clear to me that leaders on the left refuse to talk to the NRA. Their strategy is to isolate the NRA, make it the bad guy, foster mistrust of it, and force it to submit to their own terms.
