Just got a phone call from the NRA.
The young lady asked if she could play me a tape of Wayne LaPierre discussing the UN's plan to take guns away from Americans.

I kid you not.

1. Did you listen?
Yeah, that's it. There's going to be a plot for a New World Order, and only Dubya can save us (just kidding, Agent Mike).

7. No.

I told her Wayne belonged in a rubber room. But next time I go to an NRA convention, I'm going to wonder if the guy next to me listened to the tape.

(Disclosure: I'm OK with gun ownership, but not actually in the NRA. This call just amazed me.)

2. Whoa! I'd best hide all my guns then!
Somehow, I have a hard time imagining blue-helmeted soldiers from, say, Germany or France showing up to my door and saying, "Yes, we're here to take your firearms."

Man, the NRA is so dumb sometimes. Make that most of the time. Make that 99.9% of the time. And this is coming from a gun owner.

10. Yeah, I know.
Pity I've got to deal with their members down at the range whenever I feel like putting holes in something... which is usually right after I've heard OTHER NRA members on the TV ;)

8. The right-wing's b.s about the U.N. takes stupidity to new depths.
I hear this crap all the time, and there's no point in telling the winger hose-heads that the U.N. is not a legislative body but a deliberative one. They are so terrified that there are other nations on this planet and that they do not all fall down in abject adoration of the Amerikan Imperial Mightiness.

11. This is it, the big one: The UN Plan. Only John Bolton can save our guns.
We need Bolton in there asap cuz who's watching your guns when you're not there?

Those damn UN freedom haters will sneak in and take your guns unless Bolton can get there first and slap the place into shape.

Sorry. I'll stop now.

:patriot:
