That's His Best Shot?
There was once a time when the NRA supported and promoted hunting and the safe usage of firearms. Today, the organization has morphed into one that insists there should be unfettered access to weapons — even those used primarily for shooting cops...[More]This is what the ridiculous Dave Zweifels of the world are reduced to.
