NRA is a crowd of psychopaths working on behalf of gun and ammo
manufacturer's profit. They don't give a flying **** about their
membership (apart from the cash flow) the constitution or the American
citizen.

They're mercantile scum.

Yeah, but are they worse than WalMart?

Oh, and BTW - there are a lot of Democrat and union NRA members. Surely *they're* not scum!
