Do you feel that since the government would like to restrict those that own guns on the right to own, that they would be the truthful ones....

You do know that most guns used in a violent act are stolen.......so what are you really wanting here?

They have the First Amendment right to exist.

They demonize ATF. When NRA says in response to Newton massacre that it is prepared to make meaningful contributions to make sure this never happens again, they mean exactly the opposite. They will continue to fight any proposals that would regulate gun ownership in even the smallest way.

First can you cite in what context the demonize the ATF?
Second they did offer a solution, you might not agree with it but they certainly did not lie.
