If anyone has Bloombergs’s email address, please pass that along.

Everyone knows of Columbine, but few know of the daily accounts of guns saving lives.

The only way I would go to NYC is if was on a mission to plant large amounts of explosives.

My very liberal sister lives there and loves it. It was her ultimate destination and rebellion from her redneck upbringing. Perhaps we could wall it off like in the movie, Escape From New York, and let all the crazies live there. Since I love my sister, blowing her up seems a little extreme.

How about everyone gets a chance to rescue one loved one and/or help one move there first.

“I am the NRA.”

I have asked NRA members to put the initials in the tagline. So far very few Freepers are members.

It’s amazing even when the NRA was giving away free memberships, you would be surprised how many Freepers were too afraid to get on a “list”. I was even warned about putting family pictures on my profile page.

I signed my brother up recently. A cousin joined before I could ask him. Right after the election I extended my membership by 5 years.

Wait for a group of Freepers complaining about NRA fundraiser letters.

Now that you mention it, I haven't seen a mailing from them in quite some time. Now, the past two weeks they've been working the phone bank overtime; at least two calls per day on my Caller I.D. - and I just donated about a month ago!

Someone really should give the callers an updated list.

Hmm, must've missed that thread. Done.

I'm pretty sure I'm on multiple lists by now. May as well let it all hang out.

Why does this dung-beetle not just declare itself a dim-bulb-crat and complete the cycle of doom?

He used to be, but switched when he saw an opportunity to run unopposed in the "Republican" mayoral primary, but still using a Democrap platform. Apparently the other Republican was out of town that month.

You never know. Depending on how close she was to the blast center, it might work out like the suicidal guy who tried to blow his brains out, but only destroyed the part of his brain responsible for his depression. Sort of a Billy Bubba lobotomy. Course I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.

Bloomberg Wants to "Counter" the NRA

Excellent. He should start by recruiting five million people who agree with his cause so passionately they'll send him money, plus another hundred million that agree with him in general terms.

On an appearance on “Meet the Press,” Bloomberg announced that he would raise money to counter the influence of the NRA, the nation’s oldest civil rights organization.

Bloomberg was on the show to trumpet the 39 votes he was able to muster to squeak out a narrow victory in his fight against the Bill of Rights.
