The NRA is taking serious heat online for publishing an article in their magazine entitled “Target Practice” accompanied by a picture of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and former lawmaker Gabby Giffords who is a victim of gun violence.

Gun control advocates and Pelosi’s colleagues were quick to pounce on the gun group over the article published in their American Rifleman magazine (a screenshot can be seen below).

You can see some tweets calling out the NRA below:

1. Someone OD on their Stupid Pill at the NRA.

[Midnight Writer]

29. Not at all. They had to dig for this photo. This shit is better than sex for their base.

[jpak]

2. Domestic Terrorism

Yup

[EleanorR]

3. NRA and russia are working together, yes? nt

[kag]

17. When those news stories began coming out...

about Butina and how Russia was using the NRA to do its dirty work, THAT answered a lot of questions for me.

[TDale313]

26. Yep.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

4. Disgusting. +tRump lawyer diGenova advocating shooting people cause Empire dude pushed off by Hasson

[Evolve Dammit]

5. Charge them for criminal threatening and advocating violence. Good start.

[Delphinus]

23. My husband,

who is pretty thoughtful and doesn't react over the top, simply said, "this is criminal".

[Scubamatt]

31. Agreed

Start taking action that shows this will not be tolerated . . . Lock them up!

[luvallpeeps]

6. Those conservatives love their 2nd amendment innuendos

Then turn around and pretend that of course, they weren't encouraging anyone in any way shape or form to use violence against a political opponent or member of the press. From terrible ted nugent asking Hillary Clinton and President Obama to go suck on some machine guns, to Sharron Angle and her "second amendment solutions", to "The Word Salad Shooter Sarah Palin". That's how they roll.

[JohnnyRingo]

7. I wouldn't do that with republican images...

..and I despise many of them.

Common civility has become a quaint trait in the 21st century.

[fascisthunter]

8. Jesus Christ these people are evil

[FailureToCommunicate]

9. Both TRump and Suckabee Sanders say there is NO connection between hate speech triggers and

you know, white supremacist gun nutters evil actions.

So, we're good, I guess?

[sakabatou]

10. WTF?!

[MarcoZandrini]

19. Frigging...

...ammosexuals.

[fascisthunter]

11. All Wealthy Invested in the NRA RICO

All their money should go to every service member who died for this country... oh, I consider victims service members now.

[ExtraGriz]

12. If someone at the NRA printed this shit about someone i love with a target

or anything having to do with "target practice" that NRA member would no longer be a member of anything.

The NRA needs to be sued out of existence.

[onetexan]

16. not just sued, NRA needs to be reported to the FBI for this type of intimidation tactic

this proves NRA is a dangerous hate group that should have its status as a nonprofit revoked and be investigated for inciting violence. This is so alarming, and done in plain sight. The crazies are not hiding the fact they're a hate group at this point.

[BigmanPigman]

18. Ditto!

[Fritz Walter]

13. I see a business opportunity here

Back in my college days, we'd attach pictures of Nixon, Agnew and other despicables to the insides of our dormitory urinals and have our own "Target Practice."

This is the 21st Century.
There are already drumpf pissers:


Let's refresh that with wall-art that includes Dana Loesch...

...and especially Wayne LaPee-air.


Fight "fire" with water.

[keithbvadu2]

14. Strange how they left out Reagan and Kennedy.

[Pepsidog]

15. Just wait til we take back The White House. Two words for Rs National Emergency!!

[liberal N proud]

20. The NRA is a terrorist organization

[BHDem53]

21. I remember them for their

hunter safety courses for new gun owners back when I was a kid. It's hard to believe that they have turned into what they are today.

[mountain grammy]

22. Sick MFers..just sick

[mpcamb]

24. If they aren't under indictment for their Russia money, they oughta be by now. If so the judge

in their case ought to admonish, shame and then muzzle them. Freeze their funds while they're at it too.

[Progressive Jones]

25. The NRA might want to watch it's fucking step, being Russian assets as they are.

It's time to chip, chip away at the NRA. Make it difficult for that sick cult to exist.
Make it afraid to exist.

[Beartracks]

27. Any responsible (non-Democratic) gun-owners making a stink about it?

Just curious. I haven't been following this.

================

[gopiscrap]

28. fucking gun humping NRA

needs to be listed as a terrorist organization

[DonCoquixote]

30. The only problem the NRA had with Gabby Gifford being shot

is that was a lone gunman instead of a firing squad. They probably would not have even offered her the cigarette or blindfold.
