I suppose if enough of us sign up we can eventually take over the NRA and turn it into a Planned Parenthood style organization that also teaches hunting safety.

I imagine the sound of an untied, inflated balloon being released and flying about the room.

Their god is an emotionally-immature, petty, vindictive, genocide-committing jerk.

As Roni points out, fucking is a thing you can say.

Encouraging suicide, however...

But the NRA says we will all be safer if we are all packing heat. Guns for everyone. Nobody will bother shooting anyone again, if everyone realized how common, and thus how mundane and boring gun violence is. It would lose it's panache. The NRA doesn't have any reason, financial or political, to lie to us to keep us buying guns. I am thinking of joining the gun-of-the-month club. But only one gun per month? That kind of relaxed pace is not recommended by the NRA. Get serious about peace, and start buying guns every 2 weeks. Why do you think paychecks are issued that way, huh? huh?

They’d say the white guy who shot them for doing so was just exercising his 2nd Amendment rights.

The NRA, by most reports, is in dire straits, (at least, financially), of late, yet they still can stop digging that hole.

Keep it up, NRA, the world will be a better place without you.

I fear it was not sarcasm. Just stupid.

It sounds like what I thought after seeing "Dave Crockett at the Alamo" in 1955. I thought that if only the Texans and Crockett had had machine guns, they would have won. Really dumb, of course, but then I was just eight years old.

Slow Burn has an excellent pod cast on the RFK shooting. It goes way into the conspiracy theory stuff and it was Mr. Toad's Wild Ride on crack.

Yeah. Like that famous picture on the Sacramento capitol steps.

I wonder if that's true or if they just use it as a marketing tool to get people to send them bucks.
