So, now we’ve got police going to the wrong address and shooting innocent civilians, and white civilians shooting innocent black kids who ring the wrong doorbell. The persistence of hate narratives and shoot-first-ask-questions-later knee jerk reactions show how absolutely dangerous an #NRA fueled gun society is. Their answer: More Guns! Because “guns aren’t the problem. People are the problem.” My question: So why in God’s name would you give guns to the problem? #guns#guncontrol#gunviolence
#NRA's most recent tax return reveals dramatic declines along almost every conceivable metric: revenue, assets, member dues, lobbying, and political spending — with conversely sharp increases in legal costs and deficits.
2022 was the fourth year in a row that revenue fell, marking its weakest fundraising year since at least 2008.
Supreme Court Thursday cleared the way for a National Rifle Association lawsuit against a former New York state official over claims she violated its free-speech rights.
We just have less deaths by clownshow guns because #Canada has federal #GunControl & not the freaking state to state absolute crap happening in USA where they kill their own citizens on a daily basis.
#USA politicians are too scared to do better by their own citizens & allowing longtime #NRA nutjobs to run USA further into global embarrassing grounds.
No one except #ignorant ppl think that USA is the best country.
On the face of it, it looks like the toxic influence of the #NRA but in the end from afar it does seem that surely the lack of politic will has deeper roots?
Whatever it is, the death toll from rampant #gunviolence continues to rise; elsewhere countries manage to stop this (indeed even some states - Massachusetts for instance - have reduced fatalities through some further regualtion)...
My American friends, elsewhere this is not normal!
Ladies and Gents, I give you the totally clueless and tone deaf ACLU:
Now they've gone to Court in support of the NRA as well as Trump.
How dare a Federal Court impose a gag order on Trump. How dare the NY Dept. of Financial Svcs advise banks should consider the reputational risks of doing business with the NRA.
The ACLU can't see the forest for the trees. I'm glad I'm no longer a member or giving them any of my money. #nra #freespeech #news
It's really incredible (and I mean very predictable, but still nice to see) how the economic sanctions against #Putin are showing up as #GOP funding problems at every level. The #NRA, state parties, etc.
If we can just freeze out the #fascists for a few years, we might recover and even gain ground.
👀 Jury reaches #verdict in trial against the #NRA and Wayne #LaPierre
Jurors deliberated for five days in the civil corruption trial in New York against the National Rifle Association and its executives. #legal
#TheOrangeMenace told the crowd at an #NRA event Friday that when it comes to #MassShootings, people need to "Get over it" and that Mass Shootings are "not a gun problem".
(Oh, and he also called for The Death Penalty for #Biden before a crowd of heavily armed gun nuts.) 🤔
