Funny, even the NRA is afraid of guns

6. Security

A multilevel security plan went into works not long after Nashville was chosen as the convention destination. All guns on the convention floor will be nonoperational, with the firing pins removed, and any guns purchased during the NRA convention will have to be picked up at a Federal Firearms License dealer, near where the purchaser lives, and will require a legal identification.

And these assholes expect US to live among the crazies. They want schools to have guns, but not at their precious event. I can't really say what I hope happens at their convention here. I will not do anything but laugh. Remember gang, Don't retreat, RELOAD!!!!

that you can actually shoot people with, you will have to join the citizens and their children at your local supermarket or place of business. But not on their convention floor because we all know guns are dangerous.

They finally see the light. I hope they apply the same corporate strategy to all of their policies. I am very encouraged by this official publicly advertised agenda.
Today, I am a NRA guy because I believe in sensible gun laws. Laws prohibiting guns at public events. Requiring strict application of deliver events with very strong emphasis on enforcement.
God or whoever, bless the NRA !
