"[T]his month, in response to terrorists kidnapping 300 girls in Nigeria, First Lady Michelle Obama locked and loaded for battle with her own 'selfie,' with the unconditional surrender demand #BringBackOurGirls," the NRA's lobbying arm wrote in an editorial on its website. "Tyrants and terrorists, like murderers, rapists and robbers, understand only one thing: force. They laugh at, and are emboldened by, weakness. That is why it is important to preserve and promote the right to keep and bear arms. An armed citizenry deters violence."
Similarly, the NRA criticized State Department spokesperson Jen Psaki for recently posing for a photograph while holding a sign reading "#UnitedForUkraine."
"Ms. Psaki's and Mrs. Obama's naiveté--thinking that Vladimir Putin or Boko Haram terrorists will change their ways because of tweets--would provide ample fodder for their ridicule, were we so inclined," the NRA said. "But while we appreciate the value of maintaining a sense of humor in the face of things that are disagreeable, we do so only within reasonable limits. There is nothing funny in this instance."
this is one of the influences that drive the republican party they too are saber waivers and war mongers. it's good business for gun sales and promotion, they think you'll for get the murder and mayhem of guns of mass destruction and ride their wagon of more fighting on foreign lands with no regard for our service people and the budget they cry about as long as we scare everybody with guns and more guns. if Romney had won believe there would be conflict some place new.
look at laws they sponsor and threaten republicans if they don't vote that way carry in church and bars????????? they clearly have an agenda that includes the smell of gunpowder all over America and in the graveyards of our children and family.
