The list does not include any information beyond an intro.

Cripes, NRA-ILA keeps changing its links. Found it.

http://nraila.org/news-issues/fact-sheets/2010/national-organizations-with-anti-gun-po.aspx?s=monetary&st=&ps=

The long, long list starts out thus:

National Organizations With Anti-Gun Policies

Posted on August 1, 2010

The following organizations have lent monetary, grassroots or some other type of direct support to anti-gun organizations. In many instances, these organizations lent their name in support of specific campaigns to pass anti-gun legislation such as the March 1995 HCI "Campaign to Protect Sane Gun Laws." Many of these organizations were listed as "Campaign Partners," for having pledged to fight any efforts to repeal the Brady Act and the Clinton "assault weapons" ban. All have officially endorsed anti-gun positions.

AARP
AFL-CIO
Ambulatory Pediatric Association
American Academy of Pediatrics
American Civil Liberties Union
American Academy of Ambulatory Care Nursing
American Medical Women`s Association
American Medical Student Association
American Medical Association
American Association for the Surgery of Trauma
American Trauma Society
American Federation of Teachers
American Association of School Administrators
American Alliance for Rights and Responsibilities
American Medical Association
American Bar Association
American Counseling Association

And then we have:

Anti-Gun Individuals & Celebrities

The following celebrities and national figures have lent their name and notoriety to anti-gun causes, speaking out for anti-gun legislation and providing a voice for anti-gun organizations.
Celebrities:

Krista Allen - Actress
Suzy Amis - Actress
Louis Anderson - Comedian
Richard Dean Anderson - Actor
Maya Angelou - Poet
David Arquette - Actor
Ed Asner - Actor ...

The following journalists actively editorialize in favor of gun control laws: ...

Anti-Gun Corporations/Corporate Heads

The following listing includes the most prominent national corporations that have lent their corporate support to gun control initiatives or taken position supporting gun control.

A & M Records ...

Those people have a LOT of enemies.

Pink Pistols ADOPTED that list as its own -- I saw the Pink Pistols website many, many times -- and YOU state here that the organizations/people on it "that had taken a public stance against the 2nd Amendment".

Not even the NRA-ILA says that.

Would you please clarify your statement?


EDIT -- I have just seen the reply to this post. I don't want to dredge this thread up again, but I do want this on the record.

The list I linked to and quoted from above may be the current list, but it is NOT different in any significant respect from what it was when the Pink Pistols organization adopted it and posted it on its website, as may be seen in contempoary threads here at DU where the list was quoted. The major national organizations shown above were on the list, the NAACP was on the list, the mainstream Protestant churches were on the list, etc. Mr. Krick's statement below is simply false.


edit again to add (although I believe I posted this elsewhere in this thread):

14. check out the pink pistols' enemies list

http://www.pinkpistols.org/antigun.html

The following organizations have lent monetary, grassroots or some other type of direct support to Anti-Gun organizations. In many instances, these organizations lent their name in support of specific campaigns to pass Anti-Gun legislation such as the March 1995 HCI "Campaign to Protect Sane Gun Laws." Many of these organizations were listed as "Campaign Partners," for having pledged to fight any efforts to repeal the Brady Act and the Clinton "assault weapons" ban. All have officially endorsed Anti-Gun positions.

For more details on these companies or groups, see the section on Anti-Gun Corporations/Corporate Heads, below.

This detailed information is being supplied, to make the owners of stocks, and users of products and services, totally aware, of whom these organizations or people are.

It would take many pages to print out; I assume it's just cribbed from the NRA's enemies list.

If you're a Methodist, you're there. If you belong to the ACLU or the American Bar Association, you're there. Most people at DU are probably there, one way or another.

College Democrats is there. The Women's National Democratic Club is there. The YWCA is there. The United Nations is there. The Union of American Hebrew Congregations is there. The Unitarian Universalists are there and the United Church of Christ is there. Physicians for Social Responsibility and PETA and People for the American Way are there.

Oh good grief, I wasn't even looking at all the Hollywood liberals on their own separate list.

Aaliyah - Singer
Aerosmith - Pop Music group
Allen, Krista - Actress
Allen, Steve - Entertainer*
Amis, Suzy - Actress
Anderson, Louis - Comedian
Anderson, Richard Dean - Actor
Arquette, David - Actor
Asner, Ed - Actor

-- and obviously, that's just the "A"s.

And cartoonists -- Garry Trudeau's there.

All the big MSM are there. Except Fox.

And a whole lot of big corporations -- Disney, Hallmark Cards. So I wondered: any overlap between the PPs' enemies list and a list of anti-gay corporations? I found this one on a quick google:
http://www.actwin.com/eatonohio/gay/comdiscr.htm

Lemme see ... Denny's and Domino's Pizza, two easy picks. ... Nope, they're not on the Pink Pistols' enemies list. Maybe the PPs have a separate list for anti-gay people and things ... but I'm not seeing it.

That link does have Fox on the list.

Oh, and Jerry Falwell isn't on the PPs' list.

Their links page:

No Democratic links there. No links to anywhere I'd want to be going. Not even, oh, the Human Rights Committee. Not a single GLBT-focused/friendly kinda link at all.
