They have made some poor decisions lately. Like jumping on the band wagon to ban bump stocks.

They need to get with the program and attack the root of all gun control which is and always has been the NFA/GCA. There should never have been an issue with bump stocks because they should have never had any reason to exist. The 2nd Amendment specifically protects the rights of Americans to own machine guns, short barrel shotguns, suppressors and any other weapons that our government uses. There is no reason for state and local cops and tens of thousands of non military federal agents to possess thousands of machine guns while at the same time they are banned for the American people who they are to serve.

I've always liked Wayne Lapierre but if he is standing in the way of putting the full force of the NRA into reclaiming our 2nd amendment rights then maybe this is a good thing.

Calling suppressors 'machine guns' is especially idiotic. I don't know much of the history of the 1930's NFA, but I'd bet there were more than a few statists/communists involved in it's formulation and passage.
