Interesting graphic originally from Wikipedia. Stages of Genocide. NRA is now acting out at stage 5.

I think the best way to survive civil unrest, riot, pogroms, ethnic cleansing, riots, civil war, famine, genocide, etc, is to be somewhere else when it happens. Gun ownership may be helpful in isolated cases, but will generally fail to assure safety.

Although owning a gun would remove the NRA genocide target.

Unlawful intimidation is indeed terrorism, but the NRA ad in question isn't unlawful.

Unethical, yes. Unlawful, no.

U.S. judge upholds Massachusetts assault weapons ban

More sensible laws upheld by federal judges. Good news.
