The NRA is taking serious heat online for publishing an article in their magazine entitled Target Practice accompanied by a picture of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and former lawmaker Gabby Giffords who is a victim of gun violence.
Gun control advocates and Pelosis colleagues were quick to pounce on the gun group over the article published in their American Rifleman magazine (a screenshot can be seen below).
You can see some tweets calling out the NRA below:

(935 posts)Then turn around and pretend that of course, they weren't encouraging anyone in any way shape or form to use violence against a political opponent or member of the press. From terrible ted nugent asking Hillary Clinton and President Obama to go suck on some machine guns, to Sharron Angle and her "second amendment solutions", to "The Word Salad Shooter Sarah Palin". That's how they roll.

(488 posts)or anything having to do with "target practice" that NRA member would no longer be a member of anything.
The NRA needs to be sued out of existence.

(13,078 posts)this proves NRA is a dangerous hate group that should have its status as a nonprofit revoked and be investigated for inciting violence. This is so alarming, and done in plain sight. The crazies are not hiding the fact they're a hate group at this point.

This is the 21st Century.
