Where the NRA really stands on prosecuting violent criminals...


Posted: Jan 17, 2013

Given the NRA's call to prosecute violent criminals to the fullest extent of the law, it's important to look at their history with respect to keeping guns out of violent hands. The following article illuminates the organization's duplicitous stance when it comes to violent crime. "...the NRA doesn’t help the government prosecute accused criminals. It defends them. The NRA is a civil liberties organization, like the ACLU. It focuses not on protecting the public, but on the rights of those who are arrested, accused, or prosecuted. Except that the NRA, unlike the ACLU, doesn’t concern itself with the rights of suspects in general. It focuses entirely on preserving their access to guns." ;

A no pile-on zone. Irrefutable facts their talking points memo - evidently failed to cover. nm

it's clear that the best way to inhibit gun violence is to keep guns away from bad guys. You would think proponents of gun rights would see that the NRA, itself, is the problem in this regard.

Another Theory By Guest Prosecuting LawyerJun 25, 2011
There were guests on special show on Fox News last night debating what the jury would do and how they would respond to the Anthony family tears.  One guest who was a defense attorney said it will come down to forensics. This led another guest, who is prosecutor to say, athough it may not be right, what the jury will remember is Casey partying, shopping, getting a tattoo immediately after the child's death, the jailhouse tapes where she continued ...

Lovely. Eric Holder's Excuse For Not Prosecuting The New BPs.Mar 03, 2011

G20 Protests Are Getting Violent. The Black Dressers Jul 06, 2017
calmed down for a while but came back with a vengence. Protests are varied but some are insane. Some are against globalism in government and trade, others against capitalism, still others against government in general and want anarchy. The German police aren't standing down like the American police do. They're getting right in the fray and pushing back. That's the only language those anarchistic disrupters seem to understand.I don't believe in globalization. This summit is go ...

Know What Stands Out Like A Sore Thumb? SmSep 04, 2012
At the RNC the audience was predominantly white (as in I only saw like 3 black folks the whole time), very uptight, filled with suits, speeches had angry undertones, and of course there was the nut throwing incident as well as the physical assault. Now I know it's early, but thus far at the DNC I see a completely diverse group of folks who seem to be happy and excited. I detect no tension. On top of this is the involvement and inclusion of REGULAR PEOPLE in this event including local eve ...

Study:Chicago Criminals Avoid Gun Stores, Shows,Aug 31, 2015
As for specifics regarding sources for purchasing guns, some of the inmates indicated that gangs have individuals with a Firearm Owners Identification Card who buy guns then sell them to gang members. Others indicated using “corrupt cops” who seize guns then “put them back on the street.” The inmates made clear they do not walk into gun stores to buy guns. Which proves a point Breitbart News, Gun Owners of America, and other gun rights groups have made for years; namely, that backgro ...
