There is a huge amount of hypocrisy on the part of groups like the NRA and the GOP. I seem to recall that the NRA, that valiant defender of the right of everyone to own any kind of gun ever made, doesn't allow them at their convention. We keep on being assured that guns make us safer. Well, if that's true, then the safest place on the planet ought to be an NRA convention where everyone, including the toddlers, is armed.
