Laughter Forces NRA To Yank Blacklist

[MrBenchley]

Well, look who ran up the white flag!

The NRA blacklist, which was on their site for years at

http://www.nraila.org/library.asp?type=Pro%2DGun+Groups+%26+Anti%2DGun+Groups&FormMode=Filter&IID=011

NOW says

And just a few weeks ago, Waytne LaPierre was bravely shouting " Mr. WAYNE LaPIERRE (National Rifle Association): Our members don't want to buy their songs, don't want to go to their movies, and don't want to support their careers. They cherish the Second Amendment that much."

Guess either his members no longer care about the Second Amendment, or LaPierre realized that he was showing the world virtually every decent person in America opposed his little knot of right wing racists, bigots and nutcases.

5. I haven't heard back from Fred Phelps or Jerry Falwell yet

For anyone who hasn't read the Pink Pistols thread, I sent those two individuals emails this morning asking whether or not they believed homosexuals should be allowed to own guns.

[MrBenchley]

6. I'm sure everybody at DU

will be waiting to hear words from Jerry Falwell and Fred Phelps....

11. Making fun of the NRA and their right wing agenda

is no mistake....

Odd how this list mirrorrs so closely the Pink Pistols' list, isn't it? It's almost like the two are connected.

[Valarauko]

12. Because

they listing the same thing! :-)

[Withergyld]

13. because one of the sources of the Pink Pistols list IS the NRA

look at the credits at the top of the list. They list the sources of thier information.

[MrBenchley]

14. Koresh! I doubt there's a damn thing about the group

that doesn't have its source in the NRA...

"I know, I know... it is not easy. Imagine being point man for the National Rifle Association, preserving the right to keep and bear arms. ...I find my blood pressure rising when Clinton's cultural shock troops participate in homosexual-rights fund-raisers but boycott gun-rights fund-raisers... and then claim it's time to place homosexual men in tents with Boy Scouts, and suggest that sperm donor babies born into lesbian relationships are somehow better served and more loved."

http://www.vpc.org/nrainfo/speech.html

"The National Rifle Association's annual convention in Reno, Nev., degenerated on Sunday into a session of gay-bashing, with one commentator referring to anti-gun talk show host Rosie O'Donnell as a "freak" for her recent admission that she's a lesbian.
During a two-hour panel discussion attacking the media for distorting the views of gun-rights proponents, all but one speaker took an opportunity to slam gays and lesbians -- including O'Donnell -- in some manner.
O'Donnell, who had a much-publicized 1999 tiff with actor Tom Selleck about his NRA support, is "not cool, she's the freak," said conservative commentator Debbie Schlussel, a frequent guest on "The Howard Stern Show" and Fox News. "
