QUIT THE NRA!

As I have been saying for the past 7 years, the NRA is the WORST enemy that gun owners have. By continually writing and backing legislature that undermines the 2nd amendment, they have been the CAUSE of gun owners losing freedom.

Their latest assault has been referred to as the Veterans Disarmament Act, because it could be used to disarm hundreds of thousands of military veterans who are suffering the ailments that frequently follow combat stress.

The bill was sponsored by notorious gun grabbers like Rep. Carolyn McCarthy and Senator Chuck Schumer. The piece of legislation is question is H.R. 2640, the NICS Improvement Amendments Act of 2007. H.R. 2640 was carefully-crafted by the NRA and Members of Congress to protect the rights of gun owners, especially those who may have mental health issues such as PTSD.

Continuing the trend of most new legislation that takes away your constitutional rights, the NRA and the gun-grabbing sponsors will tell you that the bill will do the opposite of what it is really intended to do. They claim that it will not take guns out of the hands of gun owners. Bull! It gives more power to the Federal Government to decide who should be allowed to have guns. The BATFE is committed to disarming citizens. McCarthy and Schumer are committed to disarming citizens. And the organization that portends to fight for your gun rights has been using your membership dollars to write most of the gun laws on the books for the past 20 years. People and organizations that write gun control laws are NOT friends of the gun owner who believes that the 2nd amendment is an individual right to keep and bear arms. Please join me in defunding the authors of gun control laws - quit the NRA!
