(54,770 posts)4. Just checked out NRA site. They are promoting Ollie North's latest book. Ollie is a board member.

Just like Big Health Care, they don't care how many people their profit making tactics kill. It's all about money and power.

(37,540 posts)6. Replace the eagle with a school targeted in a gun site.
