    Remember when the NRA was better known for ensuring the public trust in firearm responsibility and not ensuring that any dumb, crazy fucker can have access to a weapon?

    My late husband supported them then. He wouldn't support them now.

    I feel the same way. Heck, I took an NRA rifle safety course back in the late 70s. Where did they go wrong?

    Some hearty knaves and simple fools,
    Some apish and pragmatic mules,
    Some servile acquiescing fools,
    These, these comprise a congress.

    When Jove resolved to send a curse,
    And all the woes of life rehearse,
    Not plague, not famine, but much worse,
    He cursed us with a congress.

    from the Revolutionary War

    It was before Heston. Believe it or not, Heston was only president of the NRA from 98-03.

    I think it happened the day, whenever that was, when the NRA decided they could influence politics - when they decided they could grade each and every political figure, whether or not he/she actually held political office - when they decided that the politics of gun control was more important than gun safety - when they decided that a 50 caliber sniper rifle was the same as a Daisy BB gun. That was when they lost vision of their core mission.
    [Romney's] vision of humanity is just a million tons of meat floating around in a sea of base calculations. He’s like a teenager who stays up all night thinking of a way to impress the prom queen, and what he comes up with is kicking a kid in a wheelchair. Instincts like those are probably what made him a great leveraged buyout specialist, but in a public figure? Man, is he a disaster. It’s really incredible theater, watching the Republicans talk themselves into this guy.

    I always thought it was Heston. Wasn't he the first that became really radical?
