We shouldn't want the NRA to get involved. They would just use him for a fundraising bargaining chip. That's all they ever do with anything.

You know who inserted the "let's create a national gun registration database" language into the Brady Act? The NRA. Why? Because they insisted on being involved in the reconciliation bill drafting after it passed separately in both houses, and they wanted an easy way to implement an "instant check".

Then the NRA spent the next 20 years screaming and demanding more money in order to stop BATF from abusing the database that the NRA insisted be created.
