The NRA Calls For Nancy Pelosi And Gabby Giffords To Be Shot
The NRA is trying to incite violence against Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and former Rep. Gabby Giffords who almost lost her life in a mass shooting.

S E E D E D   C O N T E N T



There is no other way to interpret the phrase target practice. The NRA was calling for violence against the most powerful woman in the United States. The NRA is an extremist organization that blocks efforts to curb gun violence because they are not an organization that represents the interests of responsible gun owners. The NRA is the powerful gun lobbying arm of gun manufacturers.

Every position that the NRA takes is designed with the intention of boosting profit for gun makers.

You don't really think that Trump supporters would lose their collective minds if

Time or Esquire or some other "MSM" rag put the Presidents face on a magazine cover next to the words

Target Practice?

Really, no one would infer an intent of violence against Mr. Trump?

REally?

Ya REALLY!  The title Target Practice refers to democrats targeting gun owners. 

Liberals like to twist and point to some little thing to start a big lie.

Liberals suck.

And nobody calls out this false seed for what it is!

The use of the words "target practice" as a title for this article is odd at best.  Placing the phrase in line with Pelosi's head only accentuates the oddity.

I am willing to think it might be unintentionally provocative, but there is also a good chance the seeded article is exactly correct and there is an instigation here.

It is the use of a double entendre and it is deliberate. These covers are done to get the most bang, no pun intended (or was it?), for impact. Staffers know where the lines are which are a "go,"  a "caution," and " a do not cross." This cover toes the line, with barely plausible deniability.

Democrats are using gun owners for political target practice.

Democrats are taking pot shots at all gun owners to stir up political controversy in hopes of garnering more votes and win elections.

In no way, shape, or form, are you spot on.  

Republicans hold the trademark on bullshit, lies, projection, more lies, and more bullshit.

Then why do Democrats try to make baseless hair-on-fire outrageous claims as do Republicans?  They're all in the same cow pen and feed from the same trough.

Still just reading the headlines?  I suppose that's the easiest way to mislead the ignorant.  And there are certainly a lot of ignorant Democrats and Republicans.

After all, look at who the parties ran for President last election.  Neither Democrats or Republicans can be that bright.

You make  no sense.  You're really not worth responding to.  

You blame all ills of the world on the democrats yet  not a word against the republicans.  

You must be a rump supporter.  

Didn't vote for Trump.  Won't vote for Trump.  Don't care about Trump, he's a third-rate TV personality.

But running Hillary Clinton for President and not understanding why that was wrong means the Democratic Party MUST be removed from American politics.  It's time to get rid of the party of Jackson.

Agree that both parties stepped in it with their respective choice as standard bearer. Clinton as the heir apparent and trump as the hair aberrant could not have been worse. Not sure about the contention of removing a party due to a bad choice...the electorate will determine their ultimate fate. In many ways, the GOP fell further from their roots and core values with their candidate and actually distance themselves further with not calling out each passing tweet.

Who is the standard bearer for the Republican Party?  Trump?  Hahahahahahahahaha ...  Yeah, sure, Trump is a true heir of Ronald Reagan.

Who is left to carry on the neo-liberal legacy of Ronald Reagan?  Hillary Clinton?  Nancy Pelosi?  Chuck Schumer?  I'm not sure there are any Republicans claiming to be the heir to Reagan.

It's time to do to the Democratic Party what has happened to the Republican Party.  You know, the Republican field of candidates last Presidential election was more diverse than anything Democrats could put forward.  People don't like to confront the possibility that Trump was specifically nominated to tear down the neo-liberal Republican nonsense.  It took a bully clown to finally bury Ronald Reagan.

Hillary Clinton tried to keep the legacy of Ronald Reagan alive.  And Democrat's are totally clueless about why that was wrong.

Interesting. So the GOP as it once was (pre-trump) no longer exists...and The Dems are headed that direction with double-digit candidates and no cohesive platform. What do you see rising from the ashes? Perhaps a return to a more moderate, centrist party or do we have to go even further to the lunatic fringe before the inevitable correction? Or there is always the anarchy of apathy. Scary times.

That's my perspective.  The TEA Party insurgency in 2010 shifted the Republican Party toward extreme (and unrealistic) interpretations of Reagan politics.  Eight years later both the TEA Party and Reagan politics have faded into the background.  Today's Republican Party really is more moderate than it was before 2010.

The current insurgency in the Democratic Party is shifting the party toward extreme (and unrealistic) interpretations of Reagan (or anti-Reagan) politics.  Eventually the Democratic Party will become more moderate, too.

Among potential Democratic candidates Joe Biden and Amy Klobuchar are best positioned to defend the legacy of Reagan; a status quo neo-liberal globalist view of both domestic and foreign policy.  The rest of the announced and potential Democratic field are sounding more like Bernie Sanders than Hillary Clinton.

Anyone with two brain cells to rub together. All you have to do is read the subtitle where it says that Democrats are targeting gun owners. It literally says "Congressional Democrats Target Gun Owners." To interpret it as something else would require a person to completely ignore the meaning of words.

The equivalent in politics would be "focus group".  So, it's really the Democrats who are engaging in political "target practice".

Dear Friend Don Overton: It seems the NRA has fallen on hard times.

Membership, funding, and political donations have been reported as declining by sources credible to me.

I am not in a position to confirm or deny their veracity.

Desperate times beget desperate measures.

Brother Enoch, I would suggest some "hard-times" for the NRA are in order. Because there is a counter programming circulating around that the NRA has been "paling around with Russians" in patriot country.

All money ain't good money.

And,  if what we read, hear, and see of the Russian "femme fatale" Maria Butina infiltrating the NRA boardroom is true, then all that gun machismo melts its lead for an international spy!

This new look for the NRA does not look good from outside the building!

NRA did not incite anything.  Things like this just rile up the base, which is in a permanent state of 'rile' anyway.  Nothing new here.  Today is the same as yesterday. 

However, the NRA may be grasping at straws to deflect from their 'being had' my Maria Butina.  If there is 'dirty money' involved, the 'gun grabbing' will be the least of their problems.
