NRA eeriely silent as US government deploys actual jackbooted thugs against citizens.

Isn't that weird? The NRA has always said that US-citizens need the 2nd Amendment to protect themselves against a tyrannical government. Where are they now?

1. They will drag out the old faithful stuff.

The dems want to take your guns, they love gay marriage and want everyone to have an abortion. It has worked before with these low intelligence voters.

The Radical Left Democrats: First they try to take away your guns. Then they try to take away your police!

3. Hypocrites. The NRA moans and rants about possible governmt excesses against ...

the people of this Country and they are silent now? So what are people supposed to do by the way, according to the NRA (protect ourselves against a tyrannical government)? What are people supposed to be doing? Who do we shoot? What if it was the government themselves breaking into and/or looting our businesses or our homes? What are we supposed to be doing, NRA?

People have been paying their stupid dues / fees to the NRA for decades and decades and this is what we get in return, a zero response from the NRA? Cowards. Obviously it only works (the NRA's policies/beliefs) for a very tiny subset of people in this Country. I seem to recall that the 2nd Amendment applies to ALL Americans. What does truly the NRA believe?

9. They only want to "Water the Tree of Liberty" when Democrats are in charge.

5. they never really feared tyranny, they just wanted to caress their guns, because "guns are fun"

6. It's the same NRA of their racist leader, Harlon Carter.

The man responsible for the modern NRA killed a Hispanic teenager, before becoming a border agent: Harold Carter led the evolution from sporting advocacy to political juggernaut.

Edit: I consider an NRA bumper sticker to be a racist dog whistle. Either that, or the vehicle owner is REALLY naive.
