The San Francisco Board of Supervisors has passed a resolution declaring the National Rifle Association a "domestic terrorist organization" and urged the federal government to do the same - the latest escalation in the heated rhetoric from Democrats regarding the NRA in the wake of several deadly mass shootings.
The resolution, which passed Tuesday and says the U.S. is "plagued by an epidemic of gun violence," accuses the NRA of using "its considerable wealth and organization strength to promote gun ownership and incite gun owners to acts of violence."

The document resolves to assess the relationships that those who do business with the city have with the group and says "the City and County of San Francisco should take every reasonable step to limit those entities who do business with the City and County of San Francisco from doing business with this domestic terrorist organization."

The NRA responded by calling the resolution a stunt that was distracting from the city's myriad of social problems.
"This ludicrous stunt by the Board of Supervisors is an effort to distract from the real problems facing San Francisco, such as rampant homelessness, drug abuse and skyrocketing petty crime, to name a few," the statement said, according to KTVU. "The NRA will continue working to protect the constitutional rights of all freedom-loving Americans."

NRA should ignore San Fran. They have their own s*** to clean up.
F*ck San Francisco!!!
Because if all the mass shooters who were NRA members had been disarmed there would have been exactly as many shootings.
So SF brands ME a terrorist. How about GFY SF?
Libel and slander laws should be changed. Calling a fine organization like the NRA a “terrorist organization” should be actionable, and should cost San Francisco a lot of money.
Since when is SF against terrorism?
One can’t help but notice every time there is a “white shooter” CNN leads the networks in wall to wall coverage for hours if not days. AFAIK not one of their “white shooters” has turned out to actually be a Trump voter OR NRA member but every time they breathlessly imply that this time it is.
I’m starting to think the San Francisco Board of Supervisors is actually a group of conservatives engaged in some sort of satirical performance art.
I along with three million other Americans are now members of a “domestic terrorist organization”.
What about the Crips, Bloods, MS 13, Vice Lords, Cobras, Latin Kings, and other street gangs? Can we declare then to be domestic terrorist organizations?
Indeed. 10 people were shot at an Alabama high school football game last Friday, but apparently when it is a bunch of black people shooting each other, it isn’t newsworthy.
Are they going to stop, and arrest anyone who has an NRA sticker on their car?
The Balkanization continues. We all know where this is headed.
Given their membership, the NRA is apparently doing a terrible job of this.
Yep
