Just whose rights got raped?
Remember this anybody?
................
The NRA took its case to the public. "Will you let criminals rape your rights?" asked a four-page ad in a 1994 issue of Field & Stream magazine. And the real culprit was in the White House: "The Clinton administration has already cut federal prison construction by $550 million in favor of 'community placement' and 'criminal rehabilitation programs.'" This was reviving an old conservative talking point: Democrats were soft on crime. The ads featured LaPierre's signature and bespectacled, stoic face at the bottom, alongside a 1-800 number interested volunteers could call. It was a membership hotline.
CrimeStrike took out a full-page ad in USA Today asserting that then-Rep. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) "wants to rob the crime bill of $8 billion that could be spent building the prisons that put bars between criminals and your family." The NRA fix: "Tell them you want a crime bill with $8 billion more to build prisons, or you don't want their crime bill at all!"
NRA = GUNS & PRISONS
