    With all the hysteria and Yeagerization that is sweeping INGO over these EAs, I'd like all of INGO to go to the FFL application at the ATFE webiste. Look at question 18:

    It's a business if you are making money.

    Actually, logically speaking, you're incorrect. It is more accurate to say that, if you do not intend to make a profit, then your enterprise is not a business. You are claiming that the converse of that statement (if you do intend to make a profit, then your enterprise is a business) is true.

    Just because If Not A, Then Not B is true does not mean that If A, then B is also true.

    In fact, a mere hobby can be profitable - and buying and selling firearms as part of a hobby is explicitly excluded in the statutes.

    From the article:
    "A July Pew poll found that protecting gun rights is more important than controlling gun ownership for 49 percent of adults age 18 to 29. For Gen Xers up to age 49, gun rights are a priority for 44 percent, baby boomers are at 49 percent and 48 percent of seniors over 65 share that view.
    But adults under 30 haven’t always been so evenly split. In Pew polls conducted from 1993 to 2007, young adults were the least likely of any age group to prioritize gun rights; their support ranged from 21 percent (2000) to 37 percent (2007). The preference for gun rights didn’t crack 40 percent until 2008. It’s risen fairly steadily since, aside from a dip in 2012, and the current crop of young adults support gun rights at historically high rates for people their age.
    "

    These are your future supporters of individual firearm rights. But, the Republican Party neither wants their help nor needs their votes.

    It's almost like information is becoming more available to the average person and they're seeing the wool the government is attempting to pull over our eyes.

    No problem getting my vote, but I looked at what was important to me and found who I agreed with. I have no use for "American apologist" leftists.

    Biggest problem with the vote of my peer group in that 18-29 age is the socialist issue. They want free stuff, primarily college. I'd say, no hyperbole, 85% of the Bernie Sanders images they share around are about his quotes on free college. Another 10% is him ranting about raising the minimum wage.

    You're dealing with the taker generation, and if a candidate won't indulge that they aren't getting much traction.
