One of the posters said that gun rights spent $3,000,000 in 2006 for lobbying and gun control spent only $90,000. Is this true, or is it another erroneous statement? Or is that just private donations? Just curious.

It probably means outside of a loud vocal minority, not many people feel strongly enough on gun control that they would send money in to support it while by contrast, gun rights supporters are everywhere.

I would say this is totaly un-true . I doubt that $90,000 would come close to paying for office staff/supplies for the Brady bunch alone. And frankly if the NRA is only spending $3 million a year on our cause they need to up the activity !
 
Yahoo answers is like a dumb person's Wikipedia. Worse, they close the question (ususlly with the wrong or incomplete answer) and never let it get updated again. It is a giant depository of misinformation.
