In reply to the discussion: Some Republicans Think the NRA Has Jumped the Shark [View all]BanTheGOP

There is NO WAY that the organization should be allowed to financially exist. Every donor of this organization should be outed just like the gun owners in Westchester Country, their employers and neighbors notified, and the school officials notified so they can put out notices to city child services. No child should have to live in a household with a weapon other than law enforcement, and no child should ever touch a gun until he or she is an adult in an approved government training course.
Above all, the NRA needs to be DEMONIZED for the racist, republicanist organization that it entails. Period.
