1. Sick and depraved!

Nothing more.

[tulipsandroses]

2. Disgusting! Freedom seeds??

Terrorizing the public is freedom?

[Irish_Dem]

7. Yes, they want to right to kill anyone, anywhere at anytime.

That is their concept of freedom.

[fwvinson]

28. Do we get the same freedumns. Asking for a friend.

[Irish_Dem]

43. No of course not. You are not the exalted class.

White, male, privileged GOPer/Magat.

[wnylib]

36. What does it say? I can't open Twitter links.

[Irish_Dem]

44. It is a picture of Santa looking at a long Christmas gift request list with the word AMMO

repeated endlessly.

[wnylib]

48. O.M.G. Thanks.

[Irish_Dem]

49. I know, it is disgusting.

[wnylib]

50. I had 2 RW relatives in red states who were/are

so convinced of a coming war between the left and the right, and that the right wing would win, that they tried to persuade me to move out of my northern blue state to be near them where they could protect me.

One of them passed away last year. The other one continues to believe that I should join him and his family. We are polar opposites politically, but maintain some familial loyalty from bonds formed in childhood.

This ad looks like a promotion to prepare for war. The timing is disgusting after the Oxford school shooting, but it looks to me like a shameless capitalization on the shootings to promote the "need" to be armed and ready for a bigger event.

[Irish_Dem]

52. I saw on another thread where bullets are called "Freedom Seeds."

Another disgusting meme. And yes, especially after more innocent school children have been slaughtered.

Yes I know, what can we do about some of our crazy cousins. But for you to move to a red state to be "protected" is crazy, yes.

I agree, the magats are preparing for all out war against the Dems. Southern and western states want to fight the civil war all over again. The GOP is at war with us.

[wnylib]

56. I have no intention of relocating

to my cousin's state in the South. I won't even visit there during the pandemic and over the summer, I discouraged him from coming here when he was nearby at his in-laws' family reunion. All those possibly infected people, plus whoever he encountered on the trip north? No way. He was upset with me for it, took it personally and contacts me less now.

My small city is surrounded by rural magats, but at least here I know who the sane people are through local social and political activism. So if real fighting ever does break out, I know who my allies here are.

The right wingers are so fanatical about pushing for civil war that I think there is a possibility that they will achieve at least some violent social unrest. In that case, a red state is the last place I'd want to be.

[Irish_Dem]

59. You are making smart decisions.

One of my cousins is a kindred spirit and she and I have the same views about safety issues.
She and I have made contingency plans in the event things turn violent and ugly.

The southern states seem delusional to think they could win the second civil war. Yes exactly, the last place I would want to be.

They are winning it however in the sense that their backward and racist ideas are infecting the whole country.

[wnylib]

61. I haven't made any specific plans for a violence outbreak,

but I know some people that I could contact if necessary.

I have no relatives in my community, not even in my state. They are scattered around the country - SC, AZ, GA, PA. So locally, I rely on friends.

[Irish_Dem]

63. As long as you have trusted like minded friends, then you have a good support system.

[Fla Dem]

53. Here, I posted an image of the tweet. Describing the tweet doesn't do the evil of it justice.

[wnylib]

58. Thanks. Now pardon me please while I puke.

[maxsolomon]

39. Not just anyone.

Minorities and Leftists.

[Irish_Dem]

45. Or any child attending public school.

[maxsolomon]

46. Meh.

That's an unfortunate side effect, the price of freedom.

[Irish_Dem]

47. Yes slicing 6 yr olds into ribbons with military grade weapons.

Just the price we pay for "freedoms."

[Fla Dem]

55. I hope you're being sarcastic.

[maxsolomon]

60. Of course I am.

Conservative Gunners are afraid of Minorities and they hate Leftists. They're not afraid of schoolkids, but they'll argue that Rampage Shootings in public schools aren't reason enough to curtail their right to self defense against minorities and leftists.

[Fla Dem]

62. Great! I thought so, but wanted to make sure.

That little sarcasm gif wasn't there.

[maxsolomon]

64. I get worn out using it.

If it was serious, I'd be on 8Chan or something.

[femmedem]

3. Wow. I didn't think the NRA could still shock me, but this did. n/t

[msfiddlestix]

5. ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ ✔️

stunningly depraved.

[vlyons]

4. I call it criminal indifference

nt

[msfiddlestix]

8. In a healthy society with a healthy governance, the NRA would be prosecuted and legally disbanded

freedom of speech does not cover expression of death threats.

That can be legally interpreted as a wanton death threat.

[Celerity]

57. A healthy society would somehow do away with the 'national suicide pact' parts of the Constitution

The insanity that is the 2nd Amendment

A far too near absolute 1st Amendment

The Senate itself as it is constructed

The Electoral College

Multiple elements of far too expansive federalism
(such as single states controlling federal elections)

Lack of proportional representation

The rise of the imperial Presidency due to a lack of stricter delineation of its powers

[msfiddlestix]

66. Indeed! Excellent point/enumeration of glaringly insidious dangers to our system of governance.

[spanone]

6. FUCK the nra

[Paladin]

9. Why the hell would we expect anything better from them? (nt)

[DFW]

10. Shrink, I wanna kill............

[sanatanadharma]

11. Click the twit link and read the comments (replies)

Very few replies are favorable and half of those seem to be satire or sarcasm.

This tweet is precisely what one can expect from those minds poisoned by NRATerrorrist values.
The defenders of gun-culture are morally depraved.

[SYFROYH]

12. I wouldnt think the industry would stop selling ammunition.

Or the NRA to stop promoting the industry.

[johnthewoodworker]

13. Get used to this shit. We are becoming the fascist Republican country.

[Tommymac]

14. Report it as Harmful. And the comments are simply sick.

That is a nasty piece of work by a subhuman...with subhumans commenting and egging it on.

Jim Jordan's comment got 34K hearts...wonder how many of those are fake accounts in Russia and China. Gotta love fake twitter accounts.

And here I thought twitter was trying to reform.

The platform needs to be raked over hot coals for allowing this SICK tweet.

Fucking calling bullets 'Freedom Seeds".

Anyone who supports the NRA is supporting sickness and evil.

[fwvinson]

29. I hear about 80%

[Percy]

15. They are sick.

[IronLionZion]

16. NRA solution to every problem is more guns

Kind of like the turkey council's solution this year is to sell bigger turkeys and charge higher prices.

[turbinetree]

17. Chris Rock ....

[orleans]

22. +1 nt

[multigraincracker]

18. Time of year

for State of NY to put an end to Russian paid tools.

[Sympthsical]

19. I am so far away from that world

The child-like pleading for Santa Daddy to bring weapons.

I think my brain stopped working as I look at it. What is this mindset? It reads like unhinged Tumblr, where anyone outside the radicalized group recognizes the crazy for what it is, but those involved perceive everything as totally normal.

"9MM, 5.56, 300 blackout — anything!" What is that? The desperation of a five year old in mittens.

Not too much phases me on the internet, but something about this is deeply unsettling. The perversion of childhood innocence into that.

Heebie jeebies.

[PatSeg]

20. "Freedom Seeds"?

These people are absolutely disgusting.

[Peregrine Took]

21. But the cruelty is the point. Its what they are all about and why its so hard for we normal

people to understand.

They are all sick, sick people.

[demmiblue]

23. Ugh.

[panader0]

24. In the link, on the right, it says--"The NRA, America's longest-standing civil rights

organization." I thought the NRA was going down--what's up with that? Anyone know?

[Fla Dem]

67. ??? Unless they consider their insidious role in the weaponizing the US supports civil rights.

[Wingus Dingus]

25. This country is a fucking sad joke.

[QED]

26. Who funds the NRA?

I vaguely remember something about the NRA funneling Russian money to the RNC. That would fit with Putin's desire to sow discord in American society.

[SunSeeker]

27. Yup, Russians and of course gun manufacturers. nt

[Johonny]

30. demonstrating they're nothing but an advertisement company for gun companies

How many more guns does this country need?

[BeckyDem]

31. When very small children can be slaughtered and nothing changes, these people who cheer guns

should be no surprise. After Sandy Hook, nothing surprises me.

[edbermac]

32. How about bullet-proof vests for the kids instead?

[Mr. Ected]

33. NRA - Nefarious Russian Activity

Straight from Putin's black heart to our trigger-happy haters of democracy.

They'll destroy us from within using our misinterpreted Constitution and mass ignorance to seal the deal.

[Leith]

34. I'm not a big fan of this YouTube channel, but

I replied to the nra tweet with this song. They need to hear it.

[enki23]

35. LOL Santa. You have to learn not to get caught.

.

[maxsolomon]

41. Well played.

[iluvtennis]

37. JUst disgusting. GAH

[Initech]

38. And that's why we can't have nice things.

[dlk]

40. Psychopaths have no conscience.

Expecting any level of decency from them is a complete waste of time.

[keithbvadu2]

42. The Christmas list was cut off at the bottom where it was signed:::

The Christmas list was cut off at the bottom where it was signed:::

Love, Ethan Crumbley

[SYFROYH]

51. I happily accept gifts of 22lr, 9mm, 5.56, 12G, and .357/.38.

Thank you very much.

[Martin Eden]

65. Yeah ... "freedom"

How's that working out now for the Crumbleys?

What about the Constitutional right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness of the four young people whose lives were cut short by "freedom seeds"?
