Jackaroodave BS: They do Something about US guns (87* d) RE: BS: They do Something about US guns 23 Feb 18


Greg F: "Laughing at the NRA or their Republican enablers and stooges won't accomplish shit."

You know, Greg, I think the NRA are quite vulnerable to popular ridicule:

1. The absurdity of some of their positions to ordinary people once they are brought to their attention.

2. The enormous gap between the members' hyper-macho posturing and their actual fear-driven paranoia.

3. The similar gap between their professions of patriotism and their role as corporate lickspittles in corrupting our congress--another clown car.

What are they going to do if they become a universal figure of fun, kill everybody?

I don't think anyone believes they can be defeated by slapping them around with a joke book, but historically, savage ridicule has not been not a weapon to be despised.
