"real Americans all over the country that are hoping the NRA is not going to compromise on any of the principles of the Second Amendment, nor are we going to support banning guns"
I've heard a few fellow gun owners say that they left the NRA or refuse to join the NRA because "The NRA allowed Reid to placate them and thus helped pass Obamacare by not fighting it"
ReplyDeleteThis is ludicrous.
You have to realize that the NRA is *not* a conservative political movement. The NRA is for protecting the *firearms rights* of American firearms owners, both democrats and republicans, as well as libertarians and independents.
They have only one objective - protect the 2nd amendment and our right to own & bear arms. They only get involved when an infringement of that right is in play. Once that threat is removed, their goals are accomplished.
I agree that Obamacare is a blight upon the face of American Freedom and economics, but the NRA is not to blame. They did not help get it passed. In fact, they fought it until their goals were met.
If you are looking for a political action committee to fight liberal expansion of federal power, look elsewhere. But don't scapegoat those failures upon a 2nd amendment ally. Our 2nd Amendment is under attack, and it is our *last line* of defense in protecting ourselves and our freedoms. We need all the allies we can get.
