This Governor Said The NRA was a “Terrorist Organization” And Is Now Feeling The Backlash

American Overlook  "One Democratic governor is certainly ruffling some feathers amongst members of the National Rifle Association (NRA). On Monday, Democratic Governor Dan Malloy from Connecticut publicly stated that the NRA has devolved into a terrorist organization, and the NRA was quick to share their very loud response, which was followed up with supportive examples. He shared the following statement with the press:
“ 'They act quite frankly in some cases as a terrorist organization. You want to make safer guns? We will boycott your company. That’s who they are. That’s what they do. The NRA today is a far cry from the NRA that in 1999 said that teachers shouldn’t carry weapons in schools. Or in the 90s said we should have universal background checks. They have in essence become a terrorist organization.”
"In response, the NRA recruited the help of their members and called upon those who had a variety of different backgrounds including rape survivors, immigrants, and a U.S. Navy SEAL who is a Navy Cross and Purple Heart recipient.
"When it comes to the gun control debate, there is always a lot that is said and commenters shared their thoughts on the matter…
“ 'What an extremely ignorant thing for a governor to say. He and the state of CT should be embarrassed.”
“ 'Maybe the snowflakes need to look at NRA membership among the disgusting school and church shooters. I would bet NONE belong to the NRA.' ” . . .
