Showing Original Post only (View all)The NRA is a Right Wing organization [View all]
They are not what they were decades ago, an organization to teach gun safety and instruction.
I do think that support of the NRA as an organization should be a TOS violation and the poster should be PRRed.
You can be a gun owner and not support the NRA. I am one of those. You can be a liberal and own guns. I am also one of those. You cannot be a liberal, or even a Conservadem, and support the NRA. It's impossible.

Their support of "gun safety" is a front. They are a lobby and propaganda for the gun manufacturers.

They are right wing, and terroristic in their approach. Advocacy shouldn't be permitted here.
