Oliver North:NRA is victim of 'civil terrorism' and 'cyberwar' from gun control activists

[DonViejo]

Oliver North has just set the tone in his new role as President of the NRA. He's painting the gun lobby group as a victim and gun control activists as terrorists. The retired USMC Lieutenant Colonel and former Fox News pundit is tossing in a bit of racism to boot.

"Mr. North said the NRA is now the victim of 'civil terrorism' after vandals splashed fake blood on the Virginia home of a top NRA official and other opponents aimed personal 'threats' at NRA leaders and members," The Washington Times reports after interviewing North.

“They call them activists. That’s what they’re calling themselves. They’re not activists — this is civil terrorism. This is the kind of thing that’s never been seen against a civil rights organization in America,” he said.

That's 100% false.

(Update: In his 1989 Iran-Contra trial prosecutors labeled North the "Joe Isuzu of government," calling him chronic liar who refuses to accept any responsibility.)
