When you were speaking of the power of the NRA and "feelings of most of Americans outside Calif, Ill, and NY" I think you meant Chicago, Peoria and the Quad Cities. I'm from RURAL Illinois, and where I come from, before and after hunting season we skip to go to a shooting range to hone our skills, during hunting seasons we skip school to go hunting. And as long as we get pretty decent grades, no one calls us in to explain our absences.
And, I've got a buddy IN the NRA, that was his birthday present to himself. So, when talking about the major citites of Illinois you might want to remember that most of Illinois is made of little, rural towns like mine, where hunting is a religion, a box of ammo is a birthday gift, and where shooting ranges make more money than our local McDonald's.
