Wonder how many people remember the NRA safety first approach in 1944? I was 8 when at a summer camp in Maine had an opportunity to target shoot with a Springfield.22 rifle. by 1950 I had manage Bar 9 in target practice as well a considerable respect for use, safety, & care of any fire arm. Not so much now!
One court sent him to prison for shooting a woman. Another set him free over bad police work. Was the NRA’s top lawyer railroaded—or a “bad guy with a gun”?
Dowlut was charged with first-degree murder. A year and a half later, a jury found him guilty of second-degree murder.
People walking down the street with pistols — fine. Walking down the streets with rifles — ok. Walking down the streets with automatic weapons – not ok.

Color him crazy and Christian, but never a terrorist, another example of “white privilege”.

He weren’t no terrorist, he was a good ol’e Texas millionaire having a bit of fun.
To bad he didn’t hang around for his republican tax break.

It’s not a REAL emergency unless the suspects have brown skin.

“Show me just one of these events where the shooter was an NRA member.” — OFFENDED
The NRA lobbies to assist all terrorists, not just terrorists that are NRA members.

^Well done, Addled! But it will whoosh right over Offended’s head, you know. Too dangerous for his self-image…

the NRA now gets most of its money from weapons manufacturers, not magazine sales, dues and safety programs.
