Does rot at the core mean the entire message is rot? https://www.npr.org/2020/08/06/899712823/new-york-attorney-general-moves-to-dissolve-the-nra-after-fraud-investigation?utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=national The Attorney General of New York took action today to dissolve the National Rifle Association, following an 18-month investigation that found evidence the powerful gun rights group is "fraught with fraud and abuse." |

Ouch. That's giving the hornet's nest a mighty poke with a very big stick indeed. Unless somebody backs down (which seems unlikely), that one is going to run and run. And run. Supreme court, anyone? |

To me the National Rifle Association is nothing but a criminal and terrorist group. The U.S. will never be great while they're around trying to keep the wild west alive. |

How can you say that. when all the NRA leader has done is sought a new place to live; After a mass shooting at a high school in Parkland, Fla., LaPierre told close associates he was worried about how easily he could be targeted and needed a more secure place to live and sought to buy a $6 million, 10,000-square-foot French-style country estate in Westlake, Tex. and needed time off to reduce the stress so, LaPierre billed the NRA more than $500,000 for private charter flights he and his family took to visit the Bahamas eight times over three years. All reasonable actions for the leader of a Quotes found in WaPo. |

Ouch. That's giving the hornet's nest a mighty poke with a very big stick indeed. Unless somebody backs down (which seems unlikely), that one is going to run and run. And run. Supreme court, anyone? Well, $64 million in embezzlement is a big crime, so it needs a big stick. Oh, wait. It wasn't embezzled because the people taking it could and did vote to give it out. Now was that on his W-2 or a 1099-MISC? Would that be tax fraud? Or would that be enriching an individual with a not-for-profit, which would be tax fraud of a different kind? In any case $64 million is big enough to be a felony charge. Now how fast will the jury return its verdict? |

Guns came to OSHAWA, Ontario Toronto and surrounding areas are awash in mostly illegal firearms run over the thinly guarded border, mostly by gangs. We're averaging about a gang shooting per day, and the politicians who can do something about it don't seem to care, so we'll be hitting Chicago numbers eventually.

Guns came to OSHAWA, Ontario I think that would be all illegal firearms. I doubt a Canuck can walk into a USA gun store and toss down his ID and make a purchase. So it is a straw purchase, a felony on this side of the border. Then crossing the border it is Canadian felony smuggling. There might be a couple of legal guns up there but not an "awash" amount. You will pass Chicago and get to Mexican cartel numbers soon enough. |
