Breaking from its practice of laying low following shootings, the National Rifle Association Thursday aggressively pushed back against anti-gun groups backed by billionaire Michael Bloomberg and their "#WhateverItTakes" campaign to promote gun control.

The NRA's Institute for Legislative Action, headed by Executive Director Chris Cox, Twitter bombed Bloomberg's Twitter hashtag and associated Capitol Hill rally featuring the father of a Virginia TV reporter shot dead on live TV.

The last pistol I bought came with a free 1 year NRA membership. Think I’ll send it in.

If the Second Amendment is neutralized only two dangerous groups will have access to guns, criminals and governments.

The 2A will never be neutralized......it is the law of the land.

Any entity, court or otherwose, which claims otherwise will be the criminal. If I am “criminal” for adhering to what the 2A says. I can live with that.

F any politician or group which tries to make me a criminal for something enumerated in the Constitution.

I’ve seen some of the T.V. commercials...damn good!

I repeat the words of Charlton Heston..., “From my cold dead hands!”

Give up your weapons...give up your freedom.

Well, looking at their past defenses, I’m pleasantly surprised that they are taking this tack. It’s almost like somebody found “a pair” someplace and decided enough BS is more than enough. Hopefully the momunists don’t get away with “The evil NRA is picking on people who just want to make America safer and stop gun violence.” whining that they’ll do.
