First this isn't GOA, it's an affiliate, CSG. Second, I don't think that they're lying in this instance, although it wouldn't surprise me to catch any of them lying.
Either way it's bad for pro gun forces.
If CSG is lying not only are they misinforming me and everyone on their alert list, but the're taking a heck of a chance that it will get out since there were a number of people at the hearing, and I talked to a couple of them last night and they essentially confirmed what was said
If they're not lying then it does show the NRA is a bad light; pulling their usual Neville Chamberlian move.
