The NRA is whining now about...witches?



Yup.
"Dey iz puttin' spelz on us! Wahhhh!!!"

NRA whines anti-gun witches are hurling curses at them and Donald Trump

The NRA blog is claiming that anti-gun witches are hurling curses at them and they’re playing the victim of hateful attacks on their rights.

Unsurprisingly, the reality is a little less Harry Potter and a little more nature and peace. The Wild Hunt, a news and commentary site for “modern pagans” posted links to a documentary that depicted practicing pagans doing a binding ritual to protect the world from the NRA and President Donald Trump.

Paganism focuses on natural aspects of faith and can be used to describe anything from Shamanism, practiced primarily by Indigenous communities, or Wiccans. David Salisbury, who identifies as “an activist Witch with a social justice bent,” is seen in an apartment with a group doing a binding ritual.

Allison Gross she must be
The ugliest witch in the North Country
Alison Gross she must be
The ugliest witch in the North Country

She turned her right and round about
And thrice she blew on a grass-green horn
She swore by the moon and the stars of above
That she'd make me rue the day I was born

The out she has taken a silver wand
She's turned her three times round and round
She muttered such words till my strength it did fail
And she's turned me into an ugly worm


(from a portion of Child Ballad #35, Allison Gross)
