But we knew this

every time they hear "hypocrite".

They love it when people call them hypocrites. It shows they're "owning the libtards".

They're actually not hypocrites. They understand that it's all about power, not principle, and they'll say and do anything for power, self-contradictions ( "pro-life" ) included.

and they don't care who knows it any longer.

They sure can talk the talk, BUT. . .

"Guns don't kill people, people kill people" (and variations such as "guns don't kill people, people do" and "guns don't kill, people do&quot is a slogan popularized by the National Rifle Association of America (NRA) and other gun advocates.

Those attending those NRA conferences need to be sure their vehicle is tuned. Hate to learn a old beat up vehicle back-fires like Jed Caplet Model A Ford and ww3 starts among everyone....

they wouldn't let the Insurrectionists into his rally despite his orders.

let his people in.

just evil

I don't.

Should be a SNL sketch where gunfire breaks out at NRA rally; suddenly everybody takes sides, takes cover, and uncorks their best kinetics.

Live Fox News crew under fire as they cover a firefight resulting from an accidental discharge at a gun rights rally. The reporter dodges fire while interviewing combatants, some who are shot while being interviewed. EMT and LE shot as they respond. The reporter herself gets shot, and sound guy jumps into frame but is also shot. Eventually it's just the camera man and the sound of gunfire. Gotta be a funny way of ending that which is true and biting.

The scene starts out slapstick but gets more bloody and macabre (think Monty Python's "Salad Days" ) as it progresses.

End scene.

...and every year I hear about folks taking except to the no gun policy (set by the venue) and blaming the NRA for that. There is plenty else to blame on ted, wayne, etc.

if they really wanted to. I think they are cowards.

blah blah blah

The NRA knows that the members are not trustworthy.

DeSantis does not trust his followers armed.

While the SS-protected folks are there, the Secret Service sets the rules.

If the general admission is required to be gun free, that is the policy of the building owner or the insurance company. The NRA has repeatedly said that if the policy was theirs then guns would be allowed.

This happens every year. If you want POTUS, VPOTUS or the former guy, you do what SS says. Also, NRA has to abide be local laws.
