There can be no denying the message the NRA is sending here. It's hard to believe they are allowed to maintain a tax-exempt nonprofit status for promoting violence against lawmakers who disagree with them.

What? The headline gets your attention. Headlines are supposed to do that but then you are expected to read beyond that. In this case it says that the "Democrats target gun owners..."
Pelosi is their leader and yes she targets gun owners with plans and schemes to limit their ability to purchase, posses and enjoy them responsibly.

How is this an outrage? It is a fact.





It must be a slow news day since Trump is out of the country on his way to Vietnam and the SJW's are digging deep to find something to be upset about.

The NRA is tax-exempt?

Why?

To be tax-exempt, an organization is supposed to promote social welfare, further the common good and general welfare, civic betterment, social improvements, and so forth.

NRA does none of this.

NRA is a political lobbying front for gun manufacturers.

Taking a play right out of the Maxine Waters playbook along with others in media and the entertainment industry. Institutional hate-ism is change and hope getting equal play. So outrageous when its not a one way street.

Negotiating Rights Away?
Not Real Activists?

They're not a political lobbying front for firearm manufacturers.
It's a bunch of country club Fudds that help to draft the laws you seek to put into place.


That would be NSSF...

NSSF is the lobbying front for firearm manufacturers...

Anyone with half a brain can tell from the article's summary in blue that they are saying exactly the opposite of how you're trying to portray it.

Democrats are targeting gun owners



Duh......


Yawn.....

And if such picture was published by a liberal gun owners group and had Trump in it you guys would be calling for mass arrests..


in short Todd, you know you are making excuses solely to defend your "side". You know it , I know it ever poster here INCLUDING trump supporters know it.
