On the other hand, the NRA isn’t supporting the bill, they simply aren’t spending money to defeat it.
Stop it! You're using logic in this debate. There is no room in here for that. We're all busy with our pitchforks!

Logic my fanny. It's similar to Ruger backing the high-capacity magazine ban (15-rounds) because at the time they sold none themselves. Look on it as the first of "When they came for the Jews, I did nothing" argument. What makes those NRA idiots that they won't be singled out later on? Pitchforks are needed.

A classic case of “Divide and Conquer”.
They have just divided the most formidable group they have
faced, without a shot being fired. Leftists win.

Oh, Ruger did sell them! I legally bought 6 Ruger-trademarked 30-round .223 mags BEFORE the 1994 ban. But in theory, per company policy, they were to be sold only to LEOS, it is true.
