"A True Champion of the Second Amendment"

"He is a true champion of the Second Amendment," LaPierre said of Reid. [More]
I've always thought in spite of his other Marxist tendencies, the demographics of Nevada forced Reid to be a fairly reliable pro-gun vote. So I'm curious to know why GOA rates him an "F"--all I can think of is his support for Obama and other parts of the leftist agenda have enough of a subversive back-door effect on gun rights that they wash out his more direct supporting actions. Regardless, not that I'll ever see it, but I'd be really curious to see how Harry would answer this. And even more curious to see how Wayne would answer this. [Via Brian F]

Reid is no more a champion of the 2A than Stalin was. Reid has been destroying capitalism, free enterprise, and other freedoms, for as long as he has been in office. When you no longer have any money, a place to live, or decent clothes, owning a gun went out the window long before you got to that point. He is just enabling the communists in a smooth transition from republic to tyranny. If you beggar a man and his family, you will probably have them in your grasp.

All I can think of is Mr Wu in the HBO series Deadwood, and the only two English words he knew:

KOK SUCKAH!

Actually, I don't wonder why he has an "F" from GOA, I wonder what he was willing to do to get the nod from the NRA. Maybe it is what Anonymous said.

The piece of crap NRA needs to look at the whole of the candidate's positions. If they did Reid would get a negative F minus. The NRA has screwed more gun owners than the Dems ever tho't about.

If you beggar a man and his family, it would be a good idea to never be within his reach.

Fortunately, for we who would be free, there aren't many places beyond our reach. Unfortunately for the Reids and Pelosis et.al. they aren't smart enough to know it.

NRA did endorse and help write GCA 68, so who's surprised? If they didn't compromise so much, they would no longer be needed. At least for a generation or two. What about that 120 million dollar budget? I think that within a decade, if they wanted to, NRA could do away with GCA 68. Possibly, if they were really clever at mobilizing gun owners and the liberty movement, NFA 34.
