All Dems w/ NRA cards should call for the removal of NRA leadership...

...for facilitating the sale of weapons to, interfering in the prosecution of, and providing aide and comfort to foreign organizations posing a clear and present threat to national security (Mexican Drug Cartels, S.A. gangs such as MS13 and alike). If necessary, they should propose a counter organization to promote a more responsible advocacy of 2nd Amendment rights.

Supporting the right to bare arms does not mean that you should bare that arm to the head of the nation for political gain. This is our best response to this attack. And only after being given a choice, should we take action to remove pro-gun Dems buckling to the NRA.

And to my anti-gun brothers and sisters, when you can no longer stop the flood waters, it's time to build a levee.

We need to pry the NRA from their politically dead hands (read: neuter or shut them down).

And unless the President of the NRA could easily be a victim of Arizona Immigration policy (read: look like a foreigner), we can't call the terrorists and be seen as rational actors.
