Because they (along with the NRA and others) donate to the politicians, that's the only reason gun control is never legitimately on the table.

- bumby 3y agoThat may be an ungenerous reading. It depends on how you define "majority". There are certainly some aspects that appear to be democratically in the majority and constitutional, yet they still don't get passed. I think what the OP was referring to was the case where lobbying impacts the alignment between representatives and their constituents.
