Mono nucleosis?
It appears the NRA did not vet this clown.
The moniker, “No.2,” is fitting. He stinks like, “No.2!”
Reminds me of the Country/Western “song title.”
“If I’m not No.1 in your life, then No.2 on you!”
Sorry, typed too fast.
No organization has done as much for our Second Amendment rights as the NRA.
And I’d trust a tireless, busy legal and legislation strategy nerd with proven, lifelong experience working to defend our Second Amendment rights more than anyone who would rather position himself as simply being a “gun guy” with his social pals on ranges.
The NRA is the reason that so many more of our rights have been respected since the Clintons left office. The NRA is also a large part of the reason that President Trump and other key candidates were elected.
The NRA is the number one target for commies who want to infiltrate our most effective organization for freedom in order to destroy the efforts of that organization. The NRA is its members.
FIRED. So in return he jumps to the Dimocrat Communist side. They probably went after him after he got canned and got him to speak out against them. Yup.
Me too.
You need your eyes opened! Be sure to totally read these articles.
NRA Supported the National Firearms Act of 1934America's largest gun control organization
On Jan. 16, 1968, in an address to the New York State University law school in Buffalo, Sen. Robert Kennedy, D-N.Y., stated: "I think it is a terrible indictment of the National Rifle Association that they haven’t supported any legislation to try and control the misuse of rifles and pistols in this country."
NRA Executive Vice President Franklin L. Orth took great umbrage at this remark in the October 1968 issue of the NRA’s magazine, The American Rifleman, terming Sen. Kennedy’s accusation "a great smear of a great American organization." Mr. Orth then went on to point out, "The National Rifle Association has been in support of workable, enforceable gun control legislation since its very inception in 1871."
Really? But the NRA has always been portrayed in the mainstream press as a radical anti-gun-control organization. Is it? Has it ever been?
In that 1968 issue of The American Rifleman, associate editor Alan C. Webber picked up the defense of the NRA’s gun-control credentials. I quote again from the NRA’s own, official organ:
"Item: The late Karl T. Frederick, an NRA president, served for years as special consultant with the Commissioners on Uniform State Laws to frame the Uniform Firearms Act of 1930. ... Salient provisions of the Act require a license to carry a pistol concealed on one’s person or in a vehicle; require the purchaser of a pistol to give information about himself which is submitted by the seller to the local police authorities; specify a 48-hour time lapse between application for purchase and delivery."
ABSOLUTELY correct! Agree with you about Neal.
I was more interested in skipping the ancient history and running a search about the site linked from that propaganda piece.

Left coast political trends have been in the news quite a bit lately, but I’ve never understood the attraction.
Disregard my last comment. I don’t have time to search for information about organizations that I haven’t heard of and am going to take a more positive approach instead.
Federal Assault Weapons Ban
Wikipedia
Background
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Assault_Weapons_Ban#Background
[Excerpt:]
“In May 1994, former presidents Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, and Ronald Reagan, wrote to the U.S. House of Representatives in support of banning “semi-automatic assault guns”. They cited a 1993 CNN/USA Today/Gallup Poll that found 77 percent of Americans supported a ban on the manufacture, sale, and possession of such weapons.[9]
US Representative Jack Brooks (D-TX), then chair of the House Judiciary Committee, tried unsuccessfully to remove the assault weapons ban section from the crime bill.[10] The National Rifle Association (NRA) opposed the ban. In November 1993, NRA spokesman Bill McIntyre said that assault weapons “are used in only 1 percent of all crimes”.[11] The low usage statistic was supported in a 1999 Department of Justice brief.[7] The legislation passed in September 1994 with the assault weapon ban section expiring in 2004 due to its sunset provision.”
Efforts at renewal
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Assault_Weapons_Ban#Efforts_at_renewal
[Excerpt:]
“Efforts to pass a new federal assault weapons ban were made in December 2012 after the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, in Newtown, Connecticut.[57][58][59] On January 24, 2013, Senator Feinstein introduced S. 150, the Assault Weapons Ban of 2013 (AWB 2013).[60] The bill was similar to the 1994 ban, but differed in that it would not expire after 10 years,[59] and it used a one-feature test for a firearm to qualify as an assault weapon rather than the two-feature test of the defunct ban.[61] The GOP Congressional delegation from Texas and the NRA condemned Feinstein’s bill.[62] On March 14, 2013, the Senate Judiciary Committee approved a version of the bill along party lines.[63] On April 17, 2013, AWB 2013 failed on a Senate vote of 40 to 60.[64]”
Since you admit that you haven't heard of Keep and Bear Arms or JPFO (Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership)tells me that you haven't been an active participant in fighting for gun rights for very long. Do some research or go to the Keep and Bear Arms website and look through the massive collection of articles. Also, check out the Second Amendment Foundation. All of these, and the now-defunct Second Amendment Sisters, are/were "NO-COMPROMISE" gun-rights organizations, unlike the NRA.
