Callous NRA

Ten people murdered by a lone gunman in Boulder, Colorado yesterday using an AR-15 style weapon, and what does the NRA do? Tweet a copy of the Second amendment the very same evening.

https://twitter.com/NRA/status/13741...551171/photo/1

And this after bragging about defeating an assault weapons ban in Boulder ten days ago. Thoughts and prayers to follow.

Using the term, Patrol rifle on this one??



Little the NRA can do to dissuade me from the notion they are nothing more the death mongers!

Absolutely. Death scares people. Scared people buy guns.

Mass murder in a grocery store with mil-spec weaponry is as American as apple pie.

All praise the NRA and the holy AR15.

If gun legislation gets passed it will reduce the NRA's power over politicians.
With an assault weapon ban Repub politicians will no longer get money to block such a ban.
Repub politicians love getting money for doing nothing.

Gun manufacturers give donations (bribes) to the NRA. The NRA gives donations (bribes) to politicians. The politicians gladly take the donations (bribes) to push NRA's agenda. Americans buy more guns.

The whole thing makes me sick. And, I saw Senator Cruz on tv yesterday telling people democrats want to take guns out of the hands of responsible gun owners. Is it impossible for him to say anything truthful?

NRA often makes the statement that all citizens in Switzerland are required to own a gun, but omit the fact that minimum wage in Switzerland is $25/hr.

Or the fact of having universal healthcare, mandatory military service.

Methinks something like the NRA wouldn't exist in Switzerland. Another plus for them.
