No
Please explain why the NRA will do this.
Gosh, how could a serious wanna be President have it so wrong?
RINO Cards?
That is hysterical.
LOL!
“My positions are mostly the same as Mrs Clinton’s” Rudolf Julie Annie said this before his prostate cancer took him out of the race against Hitlery.
Questions are easy, even good ones aren't too terribly hard.
Answers, good ones, are hard, very hard.
We're all imperfect. Rooty's a RINO sack of sh**.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
If criminal gangs wanted SAWs, M-16, M-249s, etc, they'd have 'em. I imagine more than a few do have M-16s. However when they have intermediate power carbines, their weapon of choice seems to be the AK-47 type, usually but not exclusively semiautomatic variants, or the SKS type. AK-47s, real ones, are a drug on the international market. If there is much demand at all, they'd find their way here and into the hands of the gangs, as some have. We can't stop drugs from coming in, and we can't (or won't) stop people from coming in, what makes anyone think we can stop guns from coming in? They are much less bulky and more easily hidden, than Marijuana. They can even be broken down and smuggled in as parts, or sub assemblies.
Only indirectly. The General has more than enough grounds to sue for defamation of character, libel and/or slander. They out and out called him a liar because he said it was his report and he did not show to anyone above him in the chain of command until he also showed it to Congress. But they said it was Bush's report and basically that he was lying for Bush. Not so long ago, those were considered "fighting words". Still are I guess, only now we fight with writs and lawyers instead of pistols at 10 paces.
The governments only role would be to supply the judge, the courtroom, and perhaps serve the papers. Oh and enforce the judgment, which could get "interesting".
I had my 20 ga JC Higgens for a mite longer than that. It was the only gun I had from the time I was 15 until I was about 30-35, and I had it for a few years after that as well, until I traded it in on a 12 ga Browning BPS. (Dumb move!, should have just paid the extra $$ and kept the 20 for my daughters).
To keep Hillary or Barak out of the White House, should Rudy win the Republican nomination.
Historically the NRA doesn't endorse candidates in the primaries.
Rudy says a lot of things that are debatable...This article and statement he made is full of things to pick at from here to Christmas...
Rudy actually does things that make him un-electable to 1600 Pennsylvania...
He’s certainly a very personable guy, and likable, but I am simply not going to vote for him...Never was, and never will...
But if not, is he seriously suggesting that calling a general some peurile name ought be punished by the government?"

Sounds reasonable. The problem is that's not what Rudy actually said:
Giuliani said that MoveOn.org's ad criticizing Gen. Petreaus was out of bounds and hinted that the group should face some sort of sanction.
"They passed a line that we should not allow an American political organizations to pass," he said. "We are at war right now, whether some people want to recognize it or not."
Libel doesn't have anything to do with whether we are at war. The General has an equal claim in peacetime, so that's not what Rudy was talking about.
He said "we should not allow" such speech. I'm very curious as to what Rudy thinks "we" should do with childish free speech that we don't like.
The man is dangerous. He has demonstrated time and time again that he doesn't love freedom, only authority. We see that once again.
