The second annual "Redskins Sporting Clays Challenge" is being held despite a public outcry over last year's event.

The MMM shows what they are truly about - all guns are bad, even sporting weapons.

Show me the million moms and maybe I will entertain your demands. BTW, the Redskins don't play in DC, they play in Maryland and practice in VA. Why do moms care whether people enjoy shooting sports?

Dang. IIRC, this is the same group that a few years back convinced the Washington Bullets to change their name to avoid being associated with crime & violence.




They decided to be known as simply "the Bullets"

What a bunch of hooey! As an NRA member and law abiding citizen, one need only to look at the ever rising violent crime rate in D.C. - and that's WITH their total gun ban. So, the little scary cats are afraid to allow law-abiding citizens their RIGHT to protect themselves, their families, and their properties. Just another ploy of the anti-gun left. Thank God for the Second Amendment!

The NRA is currently lobbying Congress to pass legislation (H.R. 1288 and S. 1082) that would repeal the city's gun laws. The bills would legalize handguns, semiautomatic assault rifles and .50 caliber sniper rifles; allow any person to carry, openly or concealed, loaded handguns and other concealable firearms in houses, places of business, or other land "possessed by that person"; and, severely weaken the District's ban on armor- piercing handgun ammunition.

Can't have that! You might end up with a crime problem in DC.

Next the MMM will outlaw the use of gun metaphors in football.

"Mark Brunell fires a bullet to his open wide receiver...what's that, you say? Can't use that? Aw jeez, OK."

"Mark Brunell happily throws the fluffy pink football to his transgendered receiver, who has returned from the performance-challenged list..."

The NRA-backed legislation is vigorously opposed by virtually every elected official in the District, Democrat and Republican alike

There are Republican elected officials in the District?

Who knew? But that is beside the point. The second amendment applies in the District, even if you think it only restricts the federal government. Constitutionally, Congress has "exclusive Legislation" (Art. 1 Section 8, next to last paragraph) over the District. Local elected officials can go pound sand, they may not restrict the rights guaranteed by the Constitution.

Maybe the NRA should just call the Indiana Pacers.

If it stands up to these clowns I might develop a smidgen of respect for the team.

It's clay shooting for gosh' sake! These yahoos won't be satisfied till even slingshots are outlawed.

BTW, that gun ban in DC has really brought down the murder rate hasn't it?

The NRA-backed legislation is vigorously opposed by virtually every elected official in the District, Democrat and Republican alike. Mayor Anthony Williams, Metropolitan Police Department Chief Charles H. Ramsey, and DC Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton have all spoken out repeatedly against repealing DC's gun laws.

OK, which one is the Republican?

The stated purpose of the event is to benefit the Redskins' Charitable Foundation.

Of course, the real purpose of the event must be something far more sinister.

And those Redskins shot those guns without a court warrant as required by the 4th Ammendment too!

Stop Bush's warrantless gun shooting!!!
