I remember my union (local 2507) posted in their fliers support for gun control. I immediately called them up and informed that gun control has nothing to do with union issues such as fair working conditions. My union has helped me numerous times when I needed it but I don't attend any meetings and feel I have nothing to add. The reason is because of things like this caused by a lack of objectivity as well as obvious indifference to allowing the organization to be hijacked by people with political agendas at the cost of solidarity. My call and email were not addressed in any meaningful way.
Now I Am a Life Member of the NRA and have been very pleased with their progress. Up to now I really liked all of their videos and ads. I can clearly see the NRA had a duty to support Trump as there were no other options and their hands were tied. I am very glad a new pro second amendment justice has been appointed.
Trump can really be thankful to people like Hillary Clinton, Gov Mario Cuomo (who recently vetoed a bill that would moderate NYCs current extreme knife laws against the will of people of NY, all the Senate, and a huge majority of the house) , Micheal Bloomberg, and NYC mayor De Blasio, for his appointment as President of The United States. People all over in general were sick of the policies of the likes of Mario Cuomo.
The NRAs latest youtube video is going to distort their message. This video has footage of riots and presents a pro right message that borders on extremism. A woman closes her fist and states that we need to hit them with the fist of truth (it reminds me of communist and nazi extremism) and then tops it off with the message we are freedoms safest place, a sentiment which this video does not impart to me at all. Although the NRA is comprised mostly of non liberal people my impression is it was always an organization respected for it's moderation and open to all who embrace 2nd amendment rights and I fear they are catering to the worst of people (who by the way make a minority) for a few extra heads of support.
How can I feel right sporting the NRA sticker on my car in NYC if they continue to distribute inflammatory, extreme non 2nd amendment related messages that will alienate them from decent moderate people of all races, religions, beliefs, and political leanings.
