[Proud2BAmurkin]

I am the NRA!

[orleans]

1. and the laws of the state n/t

[theboss]

2. Huh?

I just googled that phrase under News and got nothin'.

[karlrschneider]

4. CNN reported it a minute ago. The OP apparently thinks the NRA passes legislation.

:eyes:
(If this news is correct, the problem was not with the laws, it was that somebody failed to follow through.)

[theboss]

5. Ok..Just saw that on CNN.com

I'm not sure I'm buying that though.

[karlrschneider]

6. Well, I can easily imagine it falling through the bureaucratic cracks.

8. They did in my state

No kidding in Missouri in 2002

They and the Republican Party
Flew a National Guardsman back from Guatanamo to override a veto of a CCW bill.
The worst thing about this was that this particular bill negated a vote by the people.

10. Well, get a petition for a State Question if you want to get rid of it.

9. uh - they pretty much do. They own most of the Rep. lawmakers & get anything they want.

Since we had the energy companies personally writing our energy bills - I wouldn't be surprised if the NRA personally wrote any bills that had to do with firearms.

[karlrschneider]

3. I despise the NRA. And you aren't going to get my guns.

I guaranfuckingtee.

[Possumpoint]

7. Second

Mine neither.

[Captain Hilts]

11. Imagine what he could have done with engine block piercing or armour piercing bullets!

Or hollow pointed bullets!

Thank YOU NRA!

[moondust]

12. Oh boy.

:popcorn:
