NRA's Wayne LaPierre is a loon

In the eyes of National Rifle Association (NRA) executive vice president Wayne LaPierre, President Barack Obama's decision not to pursue gun control legislation is a "massive conspiracy," and just another reason not to give him a second term. "[The Obama campaign] will say gun owners -- they'll say they left them alone," LaPierre told an audience at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) Friday. "In public, he'll remind us that he's put off calls from his party to renew the Clinton [assault weapons] ban, he hasn't pushed for new gun control laws... The president will offer the Second Amendment lip service and hit the campaign trail saying he's actually been good for the Second Amendment." "But it's a big fat stinking lie!" the NRA leader exclaimed. "It's all part of a massive Obama conspiracy to deceive voters and destroy the Second Amendment in our country." WTF?

More and better things could be done if people dropped their units banner when their group goes marching across the rights of others, and opted to stand in defiance of that they do not agree with. Yet as it is, they will often hide in amongst the crowd, only pushing to the front of the hoard once they can see their ideological stomping[had stamping here initially] ground come into view. It does upset me to see people on this website call themselves republican or democrat in this respect.

Read full article w/ video at Crooks and Liars These fucks are so fucking against Obama, that if The President announced one day: "Free Oxygen for All Americans!" These Rethuglicans would immediately try to ban oxygen... Quantum Junction: Use both lanes Reality is that which is left, after you stop believing.
