Good! Wait for a discount and become a life member.
Masthead and meathead editorials are collaborations from the members of their editorial boards. They don’t have bylines.
Read the second line in comment# 21.
Even after the Beslan school massacre of children by Islamists, Democrats parroted John “I Was A Teenaged War Criminal Akin To Ginjuice Conn” Kerry's line that we would have to learn to accept a certain nuisance level of terrorism.
I don’t belong to the NRA, but I fully support the right of law-abiding citizens to own them. I don’t intend to ever fire my gun in anger, but I would if I had to. I firmly believe that every human being has the right to self-defense. That’s why I own a gun.
If we have to hide our guns, let’s hide them. The Constitution is on our side here.
Members of the NRA are not out committing crimes. The organization promotes safety and responsibility. The anti-gun crowd thinks they’re doing something meaningful, but they are not.
Members of the NRA are not out committing crimes.””
Meanwhile, Planned Parenthood assists women in having over 900,000 abortions in the past 3 years.
Les than 200 people showed up to protest!!!
A very tough 100 mile long distance horse event over the California Sierra gets more entrants that this crowd!!!
Notice that the author give himself an attached EPA designation.
Who has done more to destroy the American way of life than the EPA???
If one would eliminate tools to end all danger from misuse of those tools; one would have to start with something other than firearms. Motor vehicles, would be a prime example. (Not that it would make sense, but they kill more people--morally, at least, innocent people--than firearms.)
In America, unlike Moscow in November, 1917, or Germany in 1933, we do not change our heritage to humor a mob of banner or sign carriers in the street.
For the basic--relevant argument--on the questions involving an armed citizenry of free men, see Right To Keep & Bear Arms.

JIM LO SCALZO/EPA is who gets credit for the photo. EPA could mean the European Photographers Association. I don't know. I do know that this is called a masthead editorial. When it's tripe like this I call them a meathead editorial. It's done by usually 2 or 3 members of their editorial board.
Thanks for the link. Comments on target. Fire for effect.
Thanks! And keep firing!
The gun grabber goons in congress know that the NRA is going to fold; they’re not worried.
Then we get to go through another 10 years of them begging for money to fight the bill in court that they wouldn’t fight in congress.
The NRA wrote the 1968 law!
>> “I look at the picture and see a lot of people that should be at work” <<
.
You can bet that 90% of those people in the picture are on the taxpayer dime, using sickleave to protest. Mostly screwel teechurs.
>> “Les than 200 people showed up to protest!!!” <<
.
That’ll go down as “Thousands” when reported tomorrow.
The abortuary rate has been over a million per year for decades.
This is all crocodile tears for the slaughtered kids. They could have armed the teachers and prevented it.

“Today we begin to disarm the criminal and the careless and the insane. All of our people who are deeply concerned in this country about law and order should hail this day.”
“... If guns are to be kept out of the hands of the criminal, out of the hands of the insane, and out of the hands of the irresponsible, then we just must have licensing.
If the criminal with a gun is to be tracked down quickly, then we must have registration in this country.”
“The voices that blocked these safeguards were not the voices of an aroused nation. They were the voices of a powerful lobby, a gun lobby, that has prevailed for the moment in an election year. “ —Lyndon Johnson
And you're evidence is what?
It was a totally different organization and leadership.
Are they perfect? No, but nothing in this world is perfect. Why do want to denigrate them? Why do you think the rats didn't try to renew the so called "assault weapon" ban in the last Congress before November 2010?
