I think there is a good chance of the NRA backing Fred.
>>>>> ... Gun Owners of America spokesman Erich Pratt
IIRC, Pratt is that spokesman who can't debate his way out of a paperbag. The GOA should back Fred too, but the Huckster seems to be more to their liking.
What, are they nanny-state, big government, open borders socialists, too?! LOL
Huckabee’s illegal immigration stance will kill any chance he had.
If tomorrow, the SC, the Congress and the President addimitted the truth that the 2nd is for citizens to have military weapons, to attack and defeat government tyrants....then Pratt would be out a job.
So, the NRA, GOAL and others get their bread buttered by dragging out the obvious.
Just a bump to realize that job preserving bureaucracy is everywhere.
And, guns are not about hunting Bambi.

Rather than the availability of weapons, my experience is that gun violence is driven by culture, police presence (or lack of same), and failures in the supervision of parolees and probationers....”
