Former Conservative: "The NRA is Waging a Jihad on America?"?

So the current Elitist Despot who violates Constitutional Principles on a daily basis and is occupying our White House, plus those who follow his orders, honestly believe the one significant organization engaged in Protecting our Constitutionally Guaranteed Rights is made up of a bunch of Terrorists?

WOW! Shades of 1984!

Who is defining terms these days?

Wwweeeelll, I wouldn't say "jihad." I would say that they're waging war on common sense. The NRA is doing battle against even the moderate gun-control advocates, who only want to try to keep guns out of the hands of lunatics and criminals that would shoot up a school.

The board of directors is chock-full of CEOs and big shots (no pun intended) of the gun manufacturers, and take no responsibility, or make any effort, to help keep guns out of the hands of unstable or violent people.

The gunmakers are only interested in moving as much of their product as they possibly can; it's just like trying to sell as many Twinkies as possible. The Twinkie people are going to fight against any regulation that might cut into their profits. The NRA is hiding behind an Amendment that was written in the days of muzzle-loading guns, at a time when there was much paranoia about the British invading again.

So I don't see the NRA as jihadist; the leadership is just a bunch of well-heeled people trying to protect their profits by scaring people into believing that Obama and the Democrats are coming to seize their guns. It has little or nothing to do with "Constitutional rights." You don't need 50 guns and thousands of rounds of ammo to protect your family and home from home invaders - a well-placed bullet from a .38 revolver will do the job.

I wonder if you could tell us when they plan to take over. The NRA was founded for a purpose. I would bet you don't know what that is. When someone is planning to take over the United States they usually have meetings such as the one that was infiltrated by the late FBI agent Larry Grathwohl. Please give this entire clip your attention and notice terms like re educate and new way of thinking.

@ Dangerous Mr: That's funny, because if you actually ask someone from the FBI, or visit their web page (http://www.fbi.gov/about-us/investigate/terrorism/... the NRA does not fit that definition.

lol..

I could write a blog right now claiming to be former DOJ official writing about how the DOJ is fudging the investigation of the IRS.

Or a former Planned Parenthood official claiming genocide against blacks

In fact .. I may just do that. Because as we know.. there are no trolls or false information on the internet

Taylor - well said, ordinary people doing what they deem

"right" in a country which allows the freedom to do so....what is happening to freedoms, when demonisation of the tea party is supported?

The NRA meets the FBI's definition of a terrorist organization

The NRA has a acquired great wealth and power by actively keeping as many Americans as terrified for as long as possible and the idea of putting an end to America's daily gun carnage goes against everything that the NRA stands for

Observe the premises.

The change agents are at it again.

Let's beat them at their own game.

Obviously one doesn't have to waive one Right to exercise another.

All Rights may be exercised simultaneously.

Quite aside from the fact that the 2nd amendment enshrines in Constitutional Doctrine a PREEXISTING Right which is a natural right to keep and bear arms, which humans have been doing for a million years, let's play their silly game. Let's further suppose the 2nd only guarantees a Right to a muzzle-loading black powder, single shot weapon,

Suppose I went to exercise my 1st amendment Rights, to visit my government and petition it for redress of grievances. What do you imagine the scene would be at the metal detector station entering the Federal Building over my 1830 flintlock long gun and my little bag of black powder? Will they let me in? If I refuse to surrender my arms will they call the SWAT Team? How many years in prison is that for exercising my fundamental Rights?

Last time I was at a Federal building I had to surrender and get a hat check ticket for my little Swiss Army knife. If terrorists flew planes into that building Macguyver would have been helpless !

NRA Jihad on America .... what is the author smoking? Doesn't s/he know that to smoke that stuff one must have fire? Like a Bic lighter? That's a very dangerous thing! Someone could get their eye poked out!

On the other hand, I have an issue with the NRA, which is why I never became a member. In 1996 I had an issue with the Los Angeles County enforcers confiscating my pistol. I phoned the NRA asking to buy copies of some of their legal briefs. A nice lawyer answered and proceeded to yell at me for failing to pay the $30 yearly membership and refused to sell me copies of the briefs.

So are they interested in Rights or in lobbying power or in $?

Tell that lawyer bastard that I learned, all on my own, how to beat a parking ticket on the courtroom floor. Can he do that? Probably not. It's all about the rules of evidence. Email me if you want to know how.

Yours in Liberty

"What do you think of this? "

I couldn't care less. Lots of bizarre things are said on the internet.

The U.S.A. was born in violence, and has constantly lived with violence, both domestically and in its foreign relations.

Firearms are as American as apple pie.

Yes, N.R.A. members are as comfortable with violence as they are imbecilic in their attitude towards the widespread ownership of handguns, and of course they will deny this to their graves.

An average of thirty shooting deaths per day in the U.S. in 2013 alarms N.R.A. members not at all. It seems to them to be about right.

And that is madness.
