Considering the current state of this stupid war, I agree that these people are the real heros.

I will respectfully counter Irish's post with the following letter from NRA Blacklist:

Quote:
Dear Member of the NRA's Blacklist:

I bring you nothing but good news.

With your help, simply by forwarding www.nrablacklist.com to your friends, we have accomplished so much. What we need now is for you to keep passing the NRA blacklist along to everyone you know. If you do, we will succeed. Here is why:

1) 25,000 Americans have joined the NRA's blacklist in just two weeks. Our initial goal was 10,000. Then we asked for 25,000; today we are raising that goal to 50,000. The NRA may have the backing of the gun industry, but we have the people. All we need to do is get people who care to speak up and join the blacklist. We will deliver our petition to Congress and insist that we be heard. That's how it works.

2) The media buzz is growing. News articles and columns are appearing across the country. Wayne LaPierre, the Executive Director of the NRA, not only admitted that the NRA has a blacklist but said on the "Today" Show what he hoped to achieve with the list: "Our members don't want to buy their songs, don't want to go to their movies and don't want to support their careers." What arrogance. Is he for real? We wonder: How does he intend to punish the doctors, children, mayors, seniors and others who are on the list?

3) Our advertising campaign is expanding. Today, we have a full page ad in the New York Times and yesterday we were in Variety, urging readers to sign up for the NRA's blacklist. The ads are working and helping us to raise money and visibility.

We will not stop until we stop the NRA. It is out of control.

The NRA wants to put illegal assault weapons back on the street.

The NRA wants immunity for reckless gun dealers like Bull's Eye Shooter Supply, which armed the DC snipers and sold guns used in 52 other crimes.

Right now, we need to send the NRA a message and have thousands more join its blacklist. Please click here to share this e-mail with your friends and family and coworkers. The 60 seconds it will take will make a huge difference.

All the best,

The NRA Blacklist
