There is anti-NRA stuff out there, but I never experienced it until recently.

Georgia has legislation being proposed that will criminalize those with a loaded gun in a house if anyone (children & others) have potential access to it. This is a threat to anyone who keeps a loaded gun (without a trigger lock) for home protection.

The NRA is actually helping those drafting this "negligent condition" legislation and has actively opposed to any exception for firearms when several amendments have been proposed.

If passed in Georgia, this law will be more restrictive of home defense than exists in Massachusetts - with NRA help.

Bullsh!t. The NRA took a neutral stand

This is from the Georgia gun group's website:

Meanwhile, the NRA is still on the sidelines. They're scared anti-gunners will claim they're against children. The NRA lobbyist told the House Judiciary Committee the NRA is neither for the bill nor against it. Of course anti-gunners are saying "the NRA is not opposed to HB197" which is only half the truth.

I would suggest you quit lying about the NRA and pay more attention to the workings of your own group.
