The NRA is not attracting criticism for its gun safety and training.
- nailer 7y agoThe issue isn't whether the NRA are bad, the issue is whether they are a terrorist organisation. There has been no evidence in the article that the NRA exists to arm terrorists. I think people are hurt and appalled at gun violence and looking for solutions. Unfortunately expanding the definition of terrorism to include the NRA means they will unwittingly catch other groups they may support. Eg, the EFF promotes privacy, terrorists use privacy, therefore the same misguided logic could be used there. This won't help gun violence and will hurt other freedoms.
- millstone 7y agoThe NRA is obviously not a terrorist organization. Nobody should call it one. I remember when Bill O'Reilly on Fox News called the ACLU a terrorist organization too, I strongly disagreed. But San Francisco is going to San Francisco. Limiting relationships with the NRA is a good move. The private company Delta ended special discounts for NRA members and the state (!) of Georgia responded by hitting Delta with a tax. If SF can help disentangle the NRA from the states, that can only be a good thing.
