The same year the Klan became an illegal terrorist organization, another group was founded: the National Rifle Association. Soon, politicians passed one of the first gun laws, making it illegal for any black person to own one. It was a great year for America. The KKK and the NRA. Of course, they had nothing to do with each other, it was just a coincidence.
The NRA was formed the same year the KKK was declared a terrorist organisation. Obviously they had nothing to do with each other. The one just promoted and protected the idea of gun use and ownership while the other lynched and killed black people.
Loooool that was always just their sales gimmick, nothing more. Tjey don't really give a shit about that. To think the NRA care about anything other than money and power is ... something... I suppose.
The NRA's purpose is to advocate for gun rights. They give no shits about whatever else the government does as long as they can still be allowed to go shot stuff.
Surprise! The NRA is really about protecting the firearms industry from civil liability and gun control legislation. They don't give a fuck about anything that does not generate profits.
How do you expect them to do that when they are constantly defending lawsuits and such? The bill of rights makes it clear its the people of the militia that stand up, not a company who is focused on one amendment.

Nah, the NRA just exists to sell guns and launder rubles.

"Big government treading on them" was when they were told that they can't murder black people for fun.

I'm willing to bet that a large percentage of NRA members are Trumpers

Don't forget about keeping it easy for cartel gangsters to buy guns so that Mexico can never stabilize :3

Don't forget all the Russian backers they have, too. Literally an agent of a foreign government

You cant have an armed nation in a dictatorship. Either the guns go or trump does.

They won't. They STILL think it won't be them.

Then they arent worthy of support.

Lmao "defending lawsuits" stops them from what's supposed to be their one purpose? Fuck off.
whiskeywonka
It slows them down. There shouldnt even be a fight about being armed. The 2s is 100% clear on that.
