Just How Dumb Is Sherry Frost?

This tweet from Eric Swalwell (Socialist – CA): It was retweeted by “Representative” Sherry Frost, who then went on a twitter storm that included: Well, maybe you should have read the article rocket scientist: Hey, Sherry, there is an alternative to “imagining” what is in an article. It is especially useful when you have an … Read more

NRA – Political Victory Fund Gives Steve Negron an “A” Rating

Steve Negron is the only NH CD-2 candidate to get an “A” rating from the National Rifle Association Political Victory Fund. That’s important because there are candidates who received an AQ rating, which the NRA explains as,

An “AQ” rating denotes a pro-gun candidate whose rating is based solely on responses to the NRA-PVF candidate questionnaire and does not have a voting record on Second Amendment issues.

That means they said all the right things on the survey but have no actual record to back that up.

The ACLU Defends the NRA from Gov. Andrew Cuomo

The State of New York and Governor Andrew Cuomo are engaged in a campaign to encourage banks and insurance companies to divest themselves of any dealings with the National Rifle Association (NRA). Bereft of insurance or financial tools, it would become difficult if not impossible for the organization to operate.

The NRA has taken the State of New York to Court and the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) has written a brief in their defense on first amendment grounds.

David Hogg Continues to Protest Gun Rights with Armed Security

The NRA took a few “free shots” at the Media Hogg after he showed up to “protest” the NRA with armed security.

“Our social team chatted up the crowd and ended the day with ice cream paid for by @Everytown! Stay tuned for video interviews,” the NRA wrote.

Kyle Kashuv, a Parkland high school shooting survivor who supports gun rights, chuckled on Twitter, “When @NRA employees take ice cream from @Everytown to own the libs.”

Bob Greene – candidate for NH State House, Hillsborough County District 37 (Hudson/Pelham)

bob_greene_portraitHello! I’m Bob Greene and I’m running for NH State Rep in Hillsborough District 37 (Hudson/Pelham). I’m a 13-year Hudson resident, married to Kathy for 29 years, and a 20-year Air Force veteran with assignments in Illinois, Germany and Hanscom AFB. I currently work as a communications specialist for the defense industry and am a member of the National Rifle Association and American Legion. I believe in smaller government, lower taxes, free markets, personal responsibility, and the Rule of Law.

I’ve steadily ramped up my activism over the past several years — from attending presidential candidate town halls and NH GOP summits, to participating in focus groups which have appeared on Fox News Channel, to attending the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) the past three years in a row. The next logical step for me is to get off the sidelines and run for NH State Rep, because although we currently have a Republican majority in the House, we have too many reps in our party who either 1) don’t represent the party’s interests by kowtowing to unions or political correctness or 2) have poor attendance/voting records in Concord, resulting in devastating GOP losses on the House floor on several critical issues. My goal will be 100% attendance in NH House sessions — no less, since I have the flexibility with my employer to be in Concord for all sessions and committee work. And I am making a solemn promise to my future House GOP colleagues and my constituents to have a voting record that truly represents my district’s and party’s values and supports the NH Advantage.

Data Point – Gallup and Americans view of the NRA

On the political side, 88% of Republicans and 24% of Democrats view the group favorably.”

Gallup view of NRA

Even with the full out attacks by anti-gunners and the media, Americans still have a favorable view of the NRA.  I’m just surprised that it’s only been a 5% drop. And the grassroots organization, even with the vitriol thrown against them, keeps out-raising its detractors:

The NRA’s Political Victory Fund, the gun-rights group’s PAC, raised $1,164,540.23 in the month of May. That’s nearly $325,000 more than the top three gun-control PACs combined. It is also, however, a retreat of $687,783.05 from the NRA PAC’s April fundraising total.

But WAIT! WAIT! Jan Schmidt – there is no NRA in Australia!

australian flag

“According to the AP, this could be the worst mass killing that Australia has seen in 22 years.“

Ah yes, the Progressives/anti-Constitution folks just can’t live up to their own words of “tolerance” and “inclusion” when it comes to others, not of their own mind. Especially with Obama’s bitter clingers to their Bibles and their guns gaffe. They merrily go along, logic-free, saying that if you were to take away everyone’s guns, all the killing sprees would go away.  Humpf – like they did here?

SHOT:

The last mass killing of such a caliber occurred in 1996 when a lone killer massacred 35 people and injured 18 more in Port Arthur, Tasmania.

Really Jan Schmidt? Are you that clueless?

SHOT: The number of people that the National Rifle Association (and by their support, WDLNH) killed last year………zero. BARRAGE: Jan Schmidt supports Planned Parenthood.  Last year, they (from their own report and her, via her support of them), killed 328,348 babies. Who is the domestic terrorist, Jan Schmidt?

NRA: Use Liz Warren’s CFPB to Report Banks That Discriminate Against Your 2A Rights

citigroupBanks took loads of public money in bailouts. Now they want to discriminate against individuals and legal businesses engaged in constitutionally protected activities, one of which we reported here.

[Citi Bank] will not permit their financial services (credit cards) to be accepted for the purchase of firearms by anyone under the age of twenty-one. I assume this includes public safety, members of the military, private security, young moms in rural areas, and women in high-crime Democrat-run rape and robbery zones.

The NRA says, report them to Liz Warren’s Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

Alyssa Milano and MoveOn.org Pretend To Do Some Good

nraThe NRA does not represent all gun owners. In fact, it can’t lay claim to more than a fraction of them. But it makes an excellent Alinsky-esqe target the left can try to isolate. Having said that, the effort continues apace. Which means MoveOn is fundraising off it and some has-been actress named Alyssa Milano is happy to help.

I’ve spent every minute possible since then organizing a new campaign called #NoRA, which brings together some of the country’s best creative minds, leading gun control experts, Parkland students, and activists, all ready to take on the National Rifle Association (NRA) directly—since it’s the NRA that is standing in the way of every single gun control measure.

Endorsing Violent Death?

Snowflake writes anti gun-rant. Rick Olson writes scathing take-down of snowflake. Snowflake has to take down his blog and make it by invitation only. We talk about the rant and Rick’s response, and Rick has a shout-out to the City of Concord that is not to be missed.

Data Point – Growth of the NRA

“Keene then exulted in the fact that despite incredible money from leftists and a mainstream media that opposes gun rights, that nonetheless over 58,000 Americans joined the NRA in one day after Obama gave his initial gun-control speech. Amazingly, the NRA’s membership has grown by roughly one million—an astounding 25% increase—since the middle of last … Read more

Tyranny? Proper Role of Govt for a Senator demanding Fox Sports to not to air NASCAR race because of NRA sponsorship?

“Nice network and race series you have there – shame if something happened to it (if the Feds were to start looking at them)”

NRA 500I wanted to start this post off with “Have guns become the new pornography that must be silenced?” but that would miss the nuance of the Progressive mind that ALL things that run counter to the Progressive making “progress” IS considered pornography – and thus, be discredited, maligned and eventually eliminated.  Constitutionally protected?  Makes no difference – FORWARD!  Free speech / First Amendment?  Makes no difference – FORWARD!

That you have a sitting US Senator (Democrat) trying to lean forward in silence the opposition to achieve a Progressive Political Milestone?  Forward to Tyranny worthy of a Banana Republic:

The National Rifle Association-sponsored NASCAR race slated for this weekend is “inappropriate in the immediate wake of the Newtown massacre,” Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Connecticut, wrote to the race’s broadcaster on Thursday.

No, we are no longer in the “immediate wake” of using dead children for political children – Senator, when will the Left stop using dead children as politicial pawns?

“Gun Control has Racist Roots” … Wait. What?

At risk of doing two gun related posts in a row, I have to post this because… well… I was shocked.  Yes.  I admit it.  Shocked.  Where were these folks in November…ahh, I’m distracting.  Check out the video.  Sit down first. And if you have a drink, put it on the coaster.  And if you … Read more
