SO...Ted Nugent would ride on Harry Reid's boat to save his dying child, then he'd shoot Harry. [View all]

WASHINGTON — While speaking at a recent National Rifle Association event, rocker and NRA board member Ted Nugent said facetiously that if he had to accept Sen. Harry Reid’s help, he would shoot him afterward. Nugent made the comment during a question-and-answer session at the pro-gun group’s annual meeting April 12 in Nashville, Tenn.

An audience member asked Nugent about the NRA’s relationship with the Nevada Democrat and Senate minority leader.

The conversation, audio of which was obtained by left-leaning media watchdog Media Matters, started when the audience member asked Nugent “how and why did the NRA ever endorse Harry Reid to serve as the front man of Osama Obama?”

Nugent went on: “If your child is dying and there is only one way to get to the doctor, would you get on Harry Reid’s boat to get there? ... I’d get on the boat, get there, and then I’d shoot him.”
