The NRA does not hold gun shows... typically gun shows are organized by local entrepreneurs. OneTenthofOnePercent Jul 2012 #20

They have a large presence at most shows. There was a local repug running for office louis-t Jul 2012 #22

PETA cthulu2016 Jul 2012 #9

Was an animal hurt in the making of your post? Arctic Dave Jul 2012 #17

But I think that takes PETA out of the running - they actually haven't exhibited petronius Jul 2012 #23

I would say the Jewish/Israel lobby. DCBob Jul 2012 #19

Interesting. Arctic Dave Jul 2012 #27

Extremists, fearmongers, warmongers, religious fanatics, rich, powerful, distorted history, DCBob Jul 2012 #38

Do you mean all Jews exhibit these traits, or just the Israel lobby? Chorophyll Jul 2012 #44

Of course not.. DCBob Jul 2012 #72

Okay then. I might put the extreme right-wing Christian fundies first, Chorophyll Jul 2012 #73

Agreed.. they are just as bad or worse. DCBob Jul 2012 #74
