After a meeting with Vice President Biden’s gun task force today the NRA says it’s done trying to reason with the Obama administration:
We were disappointed with how little this meeting had to do with keeping our children safe and how much it had to do with an agenda to attack the Second Amendment. While claiming that no policy proposals would be “prejudged,” this Task Force spent most of its time on proposed restrictions on lawful firearms owners – honest, taxpaying, hardworking Americans. It is unfortunate that this Administration continues to insist on pushing failed solutions to our nation’s most pressing problems. We will not allow law-abiding gun owners to be blamed for the acts of criminals and madmen. Instead, we will now take our commitment and meaningful contributions to members of congress of both parties who are interested in having an honest conversation about what works – and what does not.

We need to declare war on the NRA. Repeal the 2nd amendment.
the ignorant will lead us into slavery
and what weapons will you use in that war, poopster? Nerf balls? You can’t see your own hypocrisy
Good luck with that professor. Try getting that ratified by 75% of the states. Fortunately, people like you are not the majority in this country.
beware the Executive Order and a complacent Congress
Pro crap, Good luck repealing 2nd amendment when 100,000,000 gun owners march on dc. Too freakin funny. Time we play chicken!!!
Any organization that uses such falmmatory and decietful language should not be taken seriously. The NRA has doen so for years and is such an organization. Those who fall for such rhetoric are, well lets say my Mom said never to say bad things about individuals and leave it at that.
Fact is, the Obama administration has no intention of taking anyones gun(s) away and are not blaming “law abiding gun owners”.
Fact is, Obama is anti-Second Amendment and is going to do everything he can to have it gutted and removed. The administration is blaming ‘law abiding gun owners’ and wants to hold them responsible for the criminals. Do you really want to pretend that banning ammunition, restricting guns to one shot, passing laws that make it impossible to own, purchase, load, or shoot a gun, etc. will not amount to an effective ‘taking’ of guns from legal, responsible owners. His history and his rhetoric over the years prove you completely wrong. The truth is out there if you really want to read it.
Please provide examples of deceitful language by the NRA, if you can. Those who use rhetoric such as yours are, well lets say, ignorant liars. My mom wasn’t as shy as yours about telling the truth.
While you’re providing examples, don’t forget some examples of the deceitful and inflammatory language used by phony and agenda-driven groups like the Brady group and this administration. Or do you conveniently overlook their rhetoric?
