56. I don't think anyone here indicated they would vote for Romney?

Is lack of offense = voting for Romney?

I'm not offended by that mag. I have a membership for access to a local gun range. Requirement to join. That magazine showed up, and I threw it in the trash with all the other garbage. I'm not offended by free speech. I'm just not interested in their particular flavor of it, so it goes in the garbage.

I'm voting for Obama, and so are most or all of the people in this sub-forum. Might be some conscientious objectors looking at progressive alternatives that are anti-war, and I can understand their position. That's fine.

It would be interesting to see what the NRA did if those two planks were removed from our platform slackmaster Sep 2012 #58

The NRA does support pro-RKBA Democrats. MercutioATC Sep 2012 #65
