These things pop up all the time. Pro-gun names, no members and a board of directors all from the Brady Campaign. It’s way beyond pathetic that they need whole false organizations to force their fascist ideologies down the throats of theoretically free people.

There are a lot of communists out there these days trying to pass themselves off as gun owners, conservatives, Republicans, etc. They must think conservatives are morons who will believe anything you tell them. They’ve got us confused with the morons who support them.

Any list you get your name on is a door to letting them on you might have guns.

Any ‘gun organization’ which stays talking about ‘public safety’ is just a sham to excuse more gun control. Anyone who wants to discuss taking away my rights can go play in traffic.

Subversive. These idiots are just showing that they cannot win the argument of gun control on a fair playing field. So, they chose the dishonest route.

A “sane” alternative to the NRA? Sounds pro gun control to me.

A “non-partisan” gun organization?

That’s like “dry water” - it’s an oxymoron.

With like half a dozen major fake anti-Catholic “Catholic” organizations out there, I’m surprised they didn’t call themselves a “Catholic, Pro-Gun Organization”. Or maybe a “Pro-Life, Catholic, Pro-Gun Organization”. Wait, I’ve got it!

A “TEA PARTY, Pro-Life, Catholic, Pro-Gun Organization”!

With no Tea Party, Pro-Life, Catholic, or Pro-Gun people in their organization.

The American Rifle and Pistol Association wants to be a nonpartisan alternative to the NRA...

Its hard to be a nonpartisan gun association when one political party is overwhelmingly anti-gun.

The NRA by the way has no position on abortion, spending, affirmative action, military spending, etc. They just push for the 2A, so how is the NRA being partisan, other than standing by the 2A?

If they start confiscation and you fight, they'll know you have guns. If you don't fight, what does it matter that you have guns?

"...non-partisan” gun organization..."

WTF? I hope to chit! My only problem is that the NRA isn't quite "partisan" enough.

If I belong to a gun group, pay dues and support their efforts legislatively, it better dam well be partisan.

That's the problem everywhere you look. This "non-partisan" nonsense is for the birds. If you're going to be non-partisan why bother having democrats and Republicans? Is the Brady gun-grabber group "non-partisan"

I'm not ashamed or embarrassed to believe what I believe and to voice that belief.

Let the "libby weenies" non-partisan" their way around me.

What was the giveaway?

A ‘sane’ alternative to the NRA? They’re not crazy enough about liberty.

How could you say such a thing about a gun0U0ine Purple Heart earning war vet who seared his memory in Cambodia just to earn you the PRIVILEGE of bearing arms.

(Note that all your rights are privileges in the GOP unopposed Obamerika.)

I’ve never thought the NRA was partisan, other than partisan to, and about, the 2nd Amendment.

Let the NRA just be pro Second Amendment. They caught hell from the right by endorsing pro Second Amendment rats, but the rats didn't propose any gun grabbing from when they took over the Congress in January 2007 until December 2012 after they failed to retake the House in 2012.

Holder asked to renew the so called "assault weapons" ban in the spring of 2009. More than 60 rats in the House wrote Holder a letter telling him to pound sand. I posted a copy of that letter.

Being the “sane” alternative to the NRA implies that they think the NRA is insane. And “public safety” is a euphemism for gun control, plain and simple. Yes, they may be able to fool a few people into joining, but not many.

“Non-Partisan” almost always means “liberal”.

It’s always the word they use to describe themselves: be they outright Communists, environmental groups or people trying to raise taxes.

But any group that lobbies for change in government is “partisan” by definition.
