HEY Sharptongue!! The NRA has released a statement with regards to Philando Castile stating that they are waiting until they have all the facts before they will comment specifically. Given the tenuous and corrupt nature of the media these days, no sane person would criticize them for that....... But perhaps Mr. Sharptongue isn't so sane ...... |

Nowhere have I read that either of the deceased was a NRA member.
Furthermore, Alton Sterling was a convicted felon with a gun. The shooting community and the NRA does not offer any support to felons with guns. They are the primary problem causing much of the anti-gun sentiment.

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
