The feminists want to be called actors now to prove they are on an equal level as the men.
This crap never ends.

I know who the NRA is, but what the hell is a “celebrity”??
Did you know that during the Roman Empire, there were 2 classes of people Forbidden to VOTE and take part in Any Civic Affairs, There were considered Sub Citizens and had NO Rights, they were Prostitutes and ACTORS!!!

Wow. 100 members. That's 10 times more members that most anti-gun organizations have.
Versus 4+ million paying NRA members.

The best response I could think of to the formation of this group is to renew with
JPFO,
GOA, and the
NRA.

Now there is a real list/picture of experts on gun violence, all pledging to ban “Assault Rifles” from the public possession and purchase. Hello.....is there one brain cell amongst this gang of 8 in the article's picture?
