Out-fox the NRA Again- (Richard Aborn, Anti-2A BARF ALERT)
21 July 2009 | Richard Aborn

Posted on 07/22/2009 7:33:07 AM PDT by Seamus Mc Gillicuddy

When I was leading Handgun Control, Jim and Sarah Brady's national gun control organization, in the 1990s, we studied everything the NRA did. We wanted to know exactly how they thought, what their tactics were to sneak through legislation, and who their go-to people were when they needed something done.

After a while, we were almost able to predict what their next move would be -- which helped us out-fox them and pass the Brady Bill, assault weapons ban, and ban on large clips...........


TOPICS: Constitution/Conservatism; Crime/Corruption; Culture/Society; Editorial
KEYWORDS: banglist; bradycampaign; bradywatch; democrats; guncontrol; handguncontrol; liberalfascism
I saw this article on the Huffington Post. Here we go again, with this moron, who is seeking to become the DA of Manhattan. Here he displays his true ignorance toward firearms, calling magazines clips, Wild West comments, etc. Please email the Manhattan DA's office, letting them know what a duface this guy is.

what their tactics were to sneak through legislation,

Unlike YOU, when Americans are defending their God Given and Constitutional rights to self defense, we do not need to sneak anything..
After all, we are not liberals or socialists...

You sure outsmarted the NRA! Why, there's still an Assault Weapons Ban, a Ban on Large 'clips', and there are a lot fewer states with Conceal Carry permits!

Good job!

Stock up on everything you can. Ammo, black guns,whatever you can afford. If the socialists are successful, then you will have the means to defend your liberties when they knock at the door to take them away. If they are not successful, you will still have an excellent store of value... From my cold, dead fingers.......

This thread has just added to the FreeRepublic "bang list" (firearms interest list) by adding the keyword "banglist".

Any time a firearms-related thread is created on FreeRepublic, please be sure to add the "banglist" keyword to it so that interested FReepers don't miss it. Just a suggestion.

Dittos on that.

It’s a little bit disheartening to see people selling their guns privately at guns shows – maybe they think the danger is passed or something.

Alas, it’s even more disheartening when I can’t buy them...

They’re going to have to go and buy something else later on, and it’ll look like they’ve bought twice as much as they really have.

BTW, your tag line – is that the procedure for landing during an auto-rotation?

None of the gun bans this idiot brags about are still in effect, and many of the anti-gun RATS who voted for them are out of office. He didn’t mention this.

If we sneek stuff thru its bad...

When they sneek, its for the children...

Somehow I am of the opinion that it is going to be very hard to relieve me of anything I possess, if not impossible...

Nope, it’ll just not happen...
