***UPDATE: NRA responds to Obama gun proposal***

A fantastic new ad by the NRA showing how opposed the media was to his idea of putting an armed guard in each school while some of these very people have armed guards in their own schools. The great point is that the media doesn’t speak for America, only the elites:

UPDATE: Below is the NRA’s response to Obama’s gun proposal:

Throughout its history, the National Rifle Association has led efforts to promote safety and responsible gun ownership. Keeping our children and society safe remains our top priority.

The NRA will continue to focus on keeping our children safe and securing our schools, fixing our broken mental health system, and prosecuting violent criminals to the fullest extent of the law. We look forward to working with Congress on a bi-partisan basis to find real solutions to protecting America’s most valuable asset – our children.

Attacking firearms and ignoring children is not a solution to the crisis we face as a nation. Only honest, law-abiding gun owners will be affected and our children will remain vulnerable to the inevitability of more tragedy.

Its OK for the POTUS to parade out kids when he signs his bill on guns and to use lies, fear, and propaganda in ads to get re-elected but the NRA is in the gutter?

Sounds like both sides are guilty of the same thing.

The reason that liberals are going ballistic against the NRA is that liberals do not like resistance to their elitist, leftist tyranny.

I am becoming more and more convinced that if the NRA and the TEA Party Movement would join forces and pool their resources they could make a viable alternative party to the Marxists of the Democrat Party who clearly despise our nation's constitution and to the Big Whigs in the comatose Republican Party who are more than happy to play second fiddle to Nero Ceasor Obama.

This ad needs to run everywhere as often as possible.

This is simple, 1st take all the laws passed in the heat of this exchange, and explain if they are constitutional, and 2nd - show us how they would have made ONE bit if difference to what happened.

And finally - explain why we surround our money with armed guards but not our most precious possession, the children.

Spokesboy Jay Carney blasts the NRA for using children to further their agenda while 0 surrounds himself with them to announce the beginnings of gun confiscation. What a bunch of f'ng hypocrits. And don't kid yourselves, this is just the first round. They'll get those evil guns out of the hands of all them knuckle-draggin' neantherthal NRA members no matter what it takes. -Jay, NRA life member.

The propagandist media arm of Zero has always been on the side with leftist authoritarians. They are also hypocrites, as we have seen with the Journal News. ALL of the leftists in the video are nothing but abject know-nothings. They are the sycophantic posterior smoochers of Zero. They are baseless liars. It is a pity so many people, misguided or not, listen to and watch them, giving them undeserved credibility.

I AM the FIRST responder.... the Local POLICE are MY BACKUP. I think Mr Pierre is doing a fine job and hope that he does not consider stepping down as the progressives suggest. God Bless all my fellow gun pwners... Hang in there brothers and sisters. Dont forget what Ben Franklin said... "We must, indeed, all hang together, or most assuredly we shall all hang separately." This is the first shot in the war for our God given right to defend ourselves from people that would do us harm and tyrannical governments, whether it be foreign or our own. Molon Labe!

Ironic that barry says the NRA is cowardly for using obama's children but didn't barry use children to try to take away our guns?

It is amazing. You can legally have an abortion and it is the law of the land. Yet we have a bill of rights, BILL OF RIGHTS to bare arms and yet this maggot Obama wants to take that right away. And do not tell me that Obama is not wanting to disarm America because ultimately that is his wet dream! You have a right to take a life but not a right to protect your own?

So, didn't Obama basically end up agreeing with the NRA about providing guards at the schools?

Sign this petition to make the white house a gun free zone.

WE PETITION THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION TO:

"Eliminate armed guards for the President, Vice-President, and their families, and establish Gun Free Zones around them

Gun Free Zones are supposed to protect our children, and some politicians wish to strip us of our right to keep and bear arms. Those same politicians and their families are currently under the protection of armed Secret Service agents. If Gun Free Zones are sufficient protection for our children, then Gun Free Zones should be good enough for politicians."

Now we know the reason why Obama waited till after the election to try and grab our guns. He did NOT want the NRA to beat the cr*p out of him like they're doing now lol.

Terrific video....

#12 from Obama's list of EO's today...

"Provide law enforcement, first responders, and school officials with proper training for active shooter situations."

#18 from Obama's list of EO's today....

"Provide incentives for schools to hire school resource officers."

Hypocrites....all of them.

Have I said yet today how much I loathe Obama and his EOs, and the LSM that think they're all experts.

Well, since our party -the wussy gopE- ain't got a spine to say a darn thing that is worthwhile, or to have a presser, at LEAST we have the NRA.

(There are a few brave voices in the party, we know who they are... they are excluded from the above :)

Guess where I'm putting my money??

A good article about the NRA's "Fight of the Century" can be found at the link below.

===partial quote

“The NRA sat in on a White House meeting that was sold to the public as an ‘open discussion’ about how to improve school safety.” LaPierre wrote. “But that was a dirty lie. They didn’t listen to gun owners’ concerns…they didn’t consider any real solutions on how we can keep our kids safe. Instead Barack Obama, Joe Biden and their gun ban allies in Congress only want to BLAME you, VILIFY you, BULLY you, and STRIP you of your Second Amendment freedoms.”

LaPierre warned his members about Obama’s plan, saying: “Right now, they’re steamrolling ahead with legislation that would ban your guns, register your ammunition purchases and even force you to register the firearms you already own with Obama’s anti-gun bureaucrats.”

The NRA is the only sane voice in this discussion.

Screw the liberal media. Screw these hypocrites who oppose common sense. Let them allow their children out there as bait if that's what they choose to do... but we will protect our kids... with or without your help.

I don't trust either party to do the right thing, We need a Founding Fathers Party that will respect our Heritage, protect our Sovereignty, and place America 1st in our economy and military, and remember the governments are the servants of the people. We don't need polls. We need referendums that consult the American people on major issues.

This was a very good ad by the NRA and the Republicans need to run with "protect our schools and children" and show Obama to not care about "your"children and they wouldn't even have to lie because he doesn't.

You would think with all the money we spend on defense, Military, and wars we have fought that that should be obvious.

Imam Obama has thrown a wrench into the very definitions of good guy, and bad guy. In his universe, Al Queda are the good guys, and Conservatives (or anyone who fights the Statist agenda) are the bad guys.
