So how soon until the NRA holds a rally in Charleston SC?

that is what those assholes do. Columbine, Sandy Hook - they show up soon after to remind the world that the solution to these acts of terrorism is more guns.

And folks the NRA doesn't care about your 2nd Amendment rights - never have. All they care is convincing stupid people that somehow they are going to lose their rights to have guns so they better go buy more guns. It's all about greed and profits.

5. You don't have to be a racist to be a gun nut, but it's a good start

I know quite a few neo-confederate shitstains who are gunnuts. Those two things go together like drunk and disorderly. Every one of them is like a broken record. They talk incessantly about the "war of Yankee aggression" as if any of it makes the least bit of sense, but mostly they talk about guns and how Obama wants to take them away and other half-baked, fringe-nut dipshittery. They like to think they love America, but in reality they hate everything about America that isn't white, far-right Christian, and highly bigoted.

6. Deep down inside who they really hate is themselves

Life has left these people behind because there is no room for people who want to hate on someone simply because they are 'different'. The middle class is eroding, jobs shipped overseas and God forbid some wants to say 'happy holidays' to them instead of 'Merry Christmas'.

To the NRA they are ripe pickings. The NRA will give them the 'self-esteem' in the form of cold hard steel that can shoot a dozen bullets in less than a minute. It's a sick pathetic relationship.
