I just got a mailer

A big card that says in large white letters "Michael Bloomberg and George Soros Are Coming to Take Your Guns!"

On the back was a pitch to vote for Mike deWine over Richard Cordray (Ohio governor race) plus assorted other blather and lies.

Of course the return address on the card was the NRA headquarters.

What that tells me is that DeWine is a puppet for the NRA and has probably taken money from them to push their agenda.

Into the trash can it goes! Or maybe I should let me dog chew it up?

either choice you listed, trash or the dog...you might make the dog sick though...

When will they get over the 'taking away of guns' argument when it is not true? When will they get over Bloomberg and/or Soros and the lies? The NRA is not making any friends w/ this nonsense. Fortunately the only ones that will be 'negatively impacted' are the gun nuts already out there. As for me, I like my gun too, but not to the point where I need to have an association such as the NRA ever tell me how to vote and also, spew garbage like this out there. Totally false, totally garbage, and it speaks volumes as to the responsibility that this organization has in putting out things such as this. No wonder they are losing big time, and having difficulties in raising money etc. as previously reported.

I look forward to meeting these two gentlemen. Hope they're not mad when they get here and I tell them I don't have any guns, but I do have a bottle of single malt scotch.
