Dont let facts get in the way of your little girl emotional argument though.
That opinion is not unsupported by the supreme court, they indicated that there are limits.

A million a year, sounds like a bargain for the NRA, he's been doing his job very very well, with the explosive increase in gun sales the past 20-30 years and continuing.

Morally? He'll be in hell long before God knows he's dead.

So what?

It doesn't matter. As with Roe vs. Wade, there were some Justices that dissented. The COURT has ruled, therefore it IS the LAW OF THE Land.
Where does it say that the Supreme Court is the Law of the Land.

Honestly, I don't care what he is paid. That's between him, his supporters and his employers. What I hate is his idiocy, hypocrisy, resolute failure to cooperate or compromise and his incessant need to villianize everything but guns.

Your post is thoroughly confused. We are talking about the President of the NRA.

By the way he was never in the military, I wonder why because he was at draft age when he graduated HS.
