Another fact is that the NRC could long have made the case against ‘turncoats’
that each and every attempt to restrict 2A by an elected official was violation of civil rights under color of authority. Have they? No. Have they supported pols that are involved with people that restrict the 2A? Yes.
That’s factual as well.
Here is another fact. They endorsed a gun grabber. A real one that legislated as Gov against the 2A and gun owners that send their pennies to the NRA.
My turn for the typo
NR “A”
While we are all attempting to be factual, let me add, since 1877 the NRA has been around. I don’t know exactly when they became the cash collecting agency, or when they became satisfied that grading politicians was good business and added to the cash collecting business.
Being around since 1877 they have been around for every gross infringement invented by government from the 1934, to 1968, to 1986 acts of Congress. Those are all real losses. Somehow I don’t think they have any room to crow about wins or how tough they are when they aren’t willing to fight for the only gun ban in the history of the nation. That encompassed in the 1934 and 1986 acts. Essentially what I call the machine gun ban.
Not to mention trying to be nonpartisan in a very partisan world. In this day and age giving A grades to democrats who will slice your dice on any other vote than a gun vote, just doesn’t sound like good judgement IMHO. Life isn’t single issue anymore and they loose on that as already explained.
Please don’t try to be cute on the machine gun ban issue. It is a ban when you cannot afford one. It is a ban when there are so few available that the population as a whole could not have one. It is a ban when the numbers available and their age make obsolescence, breakage, and age deterioration governing factors. Where is the NRA, trying to preserve their reasonable rating. There is no reasonable when the world is against you.
That said, I have been a member for years beginning with Jr NRA, and am tempted to be so again just for the challenge which I am convinced will be a bridge too far.
