If I was the head of the National Restaurant Association, I would be pissed. What do they have against restaurants?  |

I would suggest the name of the PAC pretty much explains it all. What used to happen when a mad (rabid) dog ran through a town? It was a community effort to make sure the mad dog did not return.  |

My 2nd Amendment rights are what protects these idiot's first amendment rights to say really idiotic things, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

sorry Serk dont agree
Calling someone a Terrorist is like .... a hate crime
It is beyond libel IMHO (unless true) The exercise of first amendment rights is not truly free as it always carries a price
What should happen is whoever OWNS the Billboard and took the money should be held to account and if there is ridicule Nationally so be it and also the person(s) names and addresses should be published.
Then 5 million NRA members and anyone else can make his or her life a living hell by sending their free mail expressions.... bet that would cause it to come down asap
I am not an NRA member and dont toe their line but they are important A dialog of issues without labels would be welcomed.

Exactly... I do NOT want to see us go down the path of our European cousins and face things like this: I thought that the "Thought Police" only existed in Communist countries. The problem with the "Left" is that they want their voices heard and NO-ONE else's. |

RIDE SAFE. As far as the restaurant thing, it's kind of an inside joke. Back when I was in college (1992 or so), I had a woman in my class that said she had an NRA meeting after class. I asked, "so, you're in the National Rifle Association, too?". Her answer was no, it was the National Restaurant Association. Anyway, that's the story. |

Connecticut governor: NRA is a 'terrorist organization' http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/connecticut-governor-nra-is-a-terrorist-organization/article/2650904Connecticut’s Democratic governor accused the National Rifle Association of being a “terrorist organization” as the gun control debate has stalled in the U.S. Senate, with no sign that anything will happen soon. |

Unfortunately, you are right. They would use it as propaganda. |

I wonder how much crime is actually committed in this country, with a gun, by NRA members vs non-members???
I also wonder how much crime is thwarted in this country by an NRA member with a gun??

Spot on. Hating someone is not a crime. When it becomes a crime, our freedom is truly gone for good. |
