NRA Trades First Amendment Rights for Second Amendment Rights

[Islander]

Don't let Raven(!!!) influence you to reject the most important organization we have for preserving our 2A rights. Read a bit about the author. Maybe she is right, but read first. Read the NRA's response. Don't let anyone divide and conquer us on such a simple issue. Study, learn, censure if necessary, but don't kill the baby.

The compromise is simple: We will not stand in the way of the proposed Disclose Act, believed to infringe upon First Amendment rights, if you do not infringe on our Second Amendment rights.

If the act violates the first amendment, then the NRA has traded nothing because the act will fall in the courts.

Nothing is unconstitutional unless it goes against the liberal agenda.

I don't trust the NRA as far as I can throw them...

... congressional leaders announced they would exempt us from its draconian restrictions on free speech. If that happens, we will not be involved in the final House debate. If it doesn't, we will continue to strongly oppose the bill. - NRA Statement June 17th, 2010 ...

“[T]he NRA -- on whose board of directors I serve -- rather than holding steadfastly to its historic principles of defending the Constitution and continuing its noble fight against government regulation of political speech instead opted for a political deal borne of self-interest in exchange for ‘neutrality’ from the legislation's requirements.”

-- NRA Director Cleta Mitchell, June 17, 2010
