The NRA has won (barf alert) (barf alert)
Al Jazeera ^ | 29 jan 2023 | Andrew Mitrovica

Posted on 01/29/2023 1:10:32 PM PST by rellimpank

Innocent after innocent has been murdered. Burial after burial has been consecrated. Eulogy after eulogy has been delivered. Tear after tear has been shed. Vigil after vigil has been held. Plea after plea has been made. Solution after solution has been offered. Column after column has been written.

Still, nothing changes.

Today, this much is clear if it wasn’t apparent before: most of America has conceded. The National Rifle Association (NRA) has won.

The slick defenders of America’s absurd addiction to guns have prevailed. The NRA’s victory over scores of unarmed Americans – including grade-school children – who have forfeited their lives to the astronomical arsenal of guns that litter America is as complete as it is emphatic.

If they’d see reality, they’d write this as the Liberals and the violent criminals they excuse and enable and use to create the problem they wznt to disarm law abiding people with, have won.

I guess Ford, Dodge, Toyota win very day there’s an accident or murder committed with their vehicles.

That’s their logic they’re abusing.

It amuses me that people still think the NRA has any power over anything. It is a joke. And I’m saying that as a Life Member. The sooner Wayne LaPierre goes to prison, the better.

This weekend, our local Tourist Development Council in north Florida sponsored a Chili Cookoff.

About 500 people attended.

Not a single security guard in sight.

Why? There were probably 100 or so CCW license holders.

This article would be a little closer to the truth if California or public schools did a single thing that the NRA advised. But they don’t - and it isn’t.

This is the kind of BS you get from Al Jeezra which identical to what you could get from a random Dem.

Right after right has been infringed. Hand after hand has been wrung. Opinion after opinion has been opined. Blah blah blah has been blah.

I’ve posted this before. Years ago I was working for the Feds living in a little efficiency apartment above a dry-cleaner establishment on 14th Street in Washington, D. C. I had gone to high school several blocks away about 10 years earlier. At 11 PM there was a knock on the door. I answered it with a cocked Ballester–Molina in my hand pointed at the ceiling. Four or five POC were standing there. The big guy in front was very apologetic about getting the wrong address, but a little guy was pushing him in the back. I heard him complaining about it bitterly on the way down the steps; “What were you pushing me in the back, when the man had a great big gun in mys face?” I sincerely hope it was a moment of enlightenment for him and saved him future grief. Even at the time, I felt some sympathy for him. Since then I have been a member of the NRA. Got a better suggestion?

I trust the NRA to represent me better than a “real saxophonist.”

Israel just had a mass murder incident. Their response was to make it easier for law abiding Israelis to possess firearms. Democrats, on the other hand, are doubling down on disarming law abiding Americans while doing nothing about criminals, other than making it easier for them to get out of jail.
