For almost 2 years the local Nevada NRA affiliate has been fighting this battle on its own without any real help from the NRA. Now, 5 months before the election, the NRA makes a big deal about hiring a consultant to show the local rubes how it’s done?
When this happened in Washington, the NRA did little more than phone it in. Bloomberg and his buddies spent over $10 Million to the NRA’s $600K. then they let Bloomberg roll over Oregon without putting up a fight. In Nevada they aren’t even phoning it in - they’re just doing Kabuki Theater.
The NRA gave us the NICS system which tracks retail firearms sales. They are not interested in stopping the criminalization of private personal property firearm transfers.
In 2014 Washington got gun owner registration via a “universal background check” ballot initiative. In 2015 the Oregon Legislature did the same thing. In 2016, Bloomberg will most likely conquer Nevada and Maine unless local gun owners put down the TV remotes, crawl out of their couches and vote to stop it. The NRA will not be there to save them.
Kinda what I’m thinkin’ too. A little short review of what happened in OR should sound the alarm bells but the IPOS voters will buy the promise of an end to ALL “gun violence” and ALL “domestic violence” if they simply vote to pass this initiative. After all, it’s about “safety” not “control”. Lyin’ bastards. That’s the line of BS the folks gathering signature were spewing. To mostly women in our area. And, they bought it without question.
