Larry Pratt - Face of the Gun Nut Lobby

Larry Pratt Compares Ninth Circuit To King George: 'We Know How That Turned Out'

Larry Pratt, the former executive director of Gun Owners of America, reacted yesterday to a Ninth Circuit ruling that there is no constitutional right to carry concealed weapons outside of the home, saying that the court was displaying a “totalitarian mindset” like that of King George III “and we know how that turned out.”

Larry Pratt: Gun Owners Keeping Hillary Clinton From Imposing Tyranny

Pratt, who said last month that if conservatives lose at the “ballot box” they might “have to resort to the bullet box,” said in an interview on the “Crosstalk” radio program on Tuesday that Clinton’s support for some gun regulations may be an attempt to disarm civilians so that she can impose tyranny.

Larry Pratt: If Conservatives Lose The Supreme Court, We May 'Have To Resort To The Bullet Box'

Larry Pratt, the executive director emeritus of Gun Owners of America, said on his “Gun Owners News Hour” radio program this weekend that if a Democrat wins the White House and the Supreme Court starts issuing decisions in favor of gun regulations, conservatives may turn to the “bullet box” to rectify the situation.

The right-wing gun lobby, represented by Larry Pratt (GOA) and Wayne LaPierre (NRA) are actually advocating a civil uprising by gun owners, and strongly suggesting that another Civil War may be necessary if Democrats win Constitutional democratic elections. Changing the "ballot box" to a "bullet box" is a right-wing gun nut's wet dream, and many of them are stocking up and planning for such a turn of events (see "preppers" and "militiamen&quot .

The Trumpster also welcomes these knuckle draggers to his tent, and is egging them on through his hateful rhetoric. We must elect Democrats to all levels of government in order to keep these twisted Second Amendment anti-American con artists in check, or in jail.
