What the press fails to report is that Cory Gardner, the Republican challenger also answered all of the questions correctly. Once again the NRA bites the hand that feeds them.

My family will not ever send the NRA another cent and will not be going to the Friends of the NRA functions ever again. They are not our friends any more, after endorsing the progressive leftist candidate. They should have kept their nose out of it and done no endorsement whatsoever since it is not an issue in this district. Bye bye NRA, I just scraped their life member stickers off my truck.....

The NRA has always endorsed pro-Second Amendment Democrat incumbets. As well it should: the Constitution is not a partisan document.

However, it's a fair question whether you can fairly call "pro-Second Amendment" anyone who votes for Nancy Pelosi for Speaker and John Conyers for Chairman of the Judiciary Committee.

I think that you can, but only if the incumbent in question is shown not only to be "personally" supportive of the RKBA, but actually is making aggressive moves to change public policy on the Second Amendent and to change the Democratic Party's position about it -- in other words acting as if the RKBA not only exists but is important.

Are they fighting to change platform planks? Are they recruiting and supporting pro-RKBA candidates in solid and swing districts? Are they organizing to get pro-RKBA members into leadership? Are they engaged with RKBA advocacy and scholarship groups, and wholesalers and resellers in the firearms industry? Are they writing op-eds against gun control and cooperating actively with Republicans on RKBA issues?

NRA is another group that we can do without very nicely. GOA is much better. I'm a life NRA member but I regret it.
