National Rifle Association

Gun owners and the NRA may not be on same page

Published on: 2nd January, 2010

Hard to know who to root for and who to hiss when you run across a stand-off between notorious Republican strategist Frank Luntz and the scare-mongering behemoth otherwise known as the National Rifle Association.

This round, let’s listen to Luntz:

Mr. Luntz queried 832 gun owners, including 401 card-carrying N.R.A. members, in a survey commissioned by Mayors Against Illegal Guns, the alliance of hundreds of executives seeking stronger gun laws. In flat rebuttal of N.R.A. propaganda, the findings showed that 69 percent of N.R.A. members supported closing the notorious gun-show loophole that invites laissez-faire arms dealing outside registration requirements.

Even more members, 82 percent, favored banning gun purchases to suspects on terrorist watch lists who are now free to arm. And 69 percent disagreed with Congressionally imposed rules against sharing federal gun-trace information with state and local police agencies.

So … a majority of gun owners want the gun-show loophole closed, favor restrictions on banned gun purchases and think it’s a good idea to have gun information shared between agencies. Makes you wonder how reasonable their views would be if they weren’t being pumped up by propaganda and warned to lock and load every election by the rich gun lobby.

My name is Dudley Brown, Executive Director of the National Association for Gun Rights.  I’m [...]
