If I was a committed anti-gunner who wanted to perpetuate the stereotype of gun owners as slack-jawed hicks, I don't think I could have done a better job of it than NRA with this idiotic commercial.
Chuck Norris may approve it. I not only find it stupid and counterproductive, I also wonder how much money this cost, and who got the sweetheart deal to make it.
Kind of makes me want to respond to one of their interminable solicitations and write them a big fat check. While saying "Gol-lee!" like a cartoon knuckle-dragging rustic boob...
Is this really what they think of their members?

You'll appreciate it a lot more if you drink a bottle of NRA Brand Wine first. Maybe two.
Really, that's like a campaign video for junior high school student council elections, not essential rights.
This video offers proof that one of three states exist at NRA:
Option One: They are completely incompetent.
Option Two: They have been infiltrated by anti-gunners.
Option Three: They are quite aware of what they are doing, and deliberately not trying to end Second Amendment battles, soas to keep the membership dollars rolling through the door.
Either option is intolerable.

A SouthPark moment...un-focking-belevable...where's my life member card now that I'd like to cut it to shreds and mail it to VP Forever LaPierre?
Option 3 (NRA and Brady have a behind-the-scenes deal to keep the 2nd Amendment ball in play forever) has been true for a couple of decades now.
That has to be one of the worst commercials I have ever seen. It definitely does far more harm than anything else. While watching it I assumed it was a left wing attack piece and then when I heard it was paid for by the NRA...just unbelieveable!
With friends like that...
There's gotta be a special class that teaches one how to pack that much stupid in such a short ad.
Unbe-****ing-lieveable.
You guys have no sense of humor. It was funny. Self-deprecating humor is a great way to get a message across.
I think Andy is closer to the mark on this.
It's a clever ad and the Anti's sure as hell can't pull the "Bubba with a Mullet" stereotype BS out if you do it in advance and show just how much stereotyping BS they continue to pass off as reality.
Gotta think this is a win.
No.
