The NRA is nothing more than a lobbyist group working for the gun manufacturers corporations

The NRA is nothing more than a lobbyist group working for the multi-billion dollar a year gun corporations.....

It's all about making money pushing guns, hiding behind the 2nd amendment while purposely using outright distortions of that amendment.

And wanting more and more and more assault weapons, high magazine clips guns on the streets.

The NRA has been pushing more guns on Americans for decades and have gotten very smug arrogant and rich doing so and look at the problems we have now with more guns on the streets ten-fold than ever before - now they want millions of teachers to be armed....

Who's gonna pay for all those new weapons and who is going to reap in the profits?

These gun profiteers like, love to have the American flag waving in the background when they are pontificating (selling) don't they?

When I see someone using and hiding behind the flag I KNOW it's all about them trying to make more money, trying to sell us on their profitable point of view as the only real patriotic American point of view and no one else should be considered, in that we should simply just trust them because they are waving the flag....

As they manipulate overtime to convince us that them making billions upon billions of dollars in profits is a good thing for you and me.

Just take a deeper look at these people who use the flag as their sales pitch.

Fox 'news' viewers: Have been proved oven & over - study after study are the most uninformed views in the country (perhaps the world) - and the NRA is another in the massive amounts of the daily feeding of right-wing corporate propaganda, creating fear as a weapon that they can count on....

Don't believe it?

Simply follow the money - Who's profiting making billions upon billions of dollars off the selling of guns and who are their lobbyist and spokesman for the huge gun manufacturer corporations?

The NRA.
