When the National Rifle Association (NRA) sent out its latest legislative questionnaire, Reuven Carlyle had a choice response ready. Carlyle, a Democratic state senator from Seattle, received a list of questions Friday, used to determine how friendly lawmakers are to gun rights. “If you choose not to return a questionnaire, you may be assigned a ‘?’ rating, which can be interpreted by our membership as indifference, if not outright hostility, toward Second Amendment-related issues,” the NRA’s email reads. |

Even if they fill out the questionnaire, the responses maybe false. Back in 2008 when Mark Begich was running for US Senator for Alaska, he was diagnosed with sudden onset of NRA Life membership after being a very anti-gun rights mayor of skAnchorage and violating state law twice in opposition to AK's Constitutional Carry.
Someone on his campaign was smart enough to give the "right answers" to the questionnaire and the NRA gave him an "A" rating without even looking at his past anti-gun record. Fortunately that little **** weasel was defeated after his first term due to his Obamacare vote hopefully he disappears into obscurity.......or an avalanche. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
