Meh. The American Communistic Litigation Union is more likely worried that they’d be next if they got on Prince Andrew’s bad side. They see which way that ill wind’s blowing.

Cuomo wants to run for POTUS. He has galvanized the opposition in his own state and the rest of the country with this foolish endeavor.

That and his statement about the 'greatness of America'.

Obviously the ACLU had no choice. As liberal as they are, this isn’t a position they can fight against, even though it is the NRA.

They will make up for it by taking up another couple hundred progressive communist causes.

The ACLU is a very conflicted organization at present. They also successfully sued the City of Charlottesville on behalf of the Unite the Right Rally organizers and forced the city to grant their permit. But there are a lot of people in the organization who don’t agree with that kind of principled defense of free speech, and only believe that leftists and protected minorities should have free speech, and in fact any speech that offends protected minorities (”hate speech”) should be restricted.

And who is going to stop the strutting dictator Cuomo? A federal court? Not bloody likely.

Why not? The left never believed in free speech.

This is called "corporate gun control" and we're going to be seeing a lot more of it. Rush was talking about this on his show just last Friday.

Frustrated to get gun control laws passed through legislation, even when Democrats are in control, liberals have now adopted the tactic of pressuring banks to completely disinvest from all pro-gun organizations, retailers, and soon to come, individuals.

It's hard to be the NRA, a sporting goods store that sells firearms, or even a manufacturer of firearms if you are completely cut off from financial institutions. Coming next will be questions pertaining to gun ownership on loan applications.

This is clearly a case of Viewpoint Discrimination.

There’s no question the NRA is going to win in federal court. The only question is how much in damages it will be awarded. It should be in the millions to send a message. This is a particularly egregious first amendment violation.

That second statement made me sick to my stomach

As an American of Italian descent...

I vote we deport him.
