So, what are you suggesting?

Ostracize from the organization some of the Second Amendment's staunchest supporters just because the left doesn't think they look good?

That sounds suspiciously as if it would be playing exactly into the left's hands over the entire matter.

Simple fact is, NRA doesn't forge its alliances based on how Holy a candidate claims to be, or how racists CNN claims them to be.

NRA forges its alliances based on the candidate's or politican's demonstrated support for the pillar position of the entire organization.

There are numerous Democrats in that fold, too, staunch Christians whose beliefs are based on a strong personal morality and who are staunch supporters of the Second Amendment, as well.

But they, obviously, don't really fit into the media's attempts to paint NRA as a radical, racist organization.

Whose fault is that?

Ours, or theirs?

And again I ask, should we ask NRA to toss its supporters to the curb simply because CNN and the like won't point to the far left and expose the blatant racism and other virulent ism's that are part and parcel to that iniquitous band?
