Here we go again

So in light of all the craziness with gun violence in America, especially down in Sanford, Fl. the NRA thinks joking about guns is acceptable. Of course there's the first amendment which allows for freedom of expression, in this case to promote voter registration of young people in a commercial, ha! But there should be a higher standard here. When the late Charlton Heston wanted to have an NRA rally in Littleton, Co. shortly after the Columbine High School gun rampage, that was sure lunacy. What the NRA is up to is pure and simple, self promotion for the advancement of laid-back gun control standards, and raise a few dollars in the process. It's difficult to draw a line from honest behavior with wanting to enjoy using a firearm for recreation and sport, against the real need for control and licensing, plus just common sense. The NRA, 99% of the time doesn't distinguish different levels of opinion on gun control. That would be too complicated and intellictual. They are indeed not an organization that promotes gun use through respectful dialouge, instead they create a war based on culture, even though we're more alike as Americans than different from each other in the grand scheme of things. It's the elite intellictuals from the coasts versus the average middle-American drinking their Buds and shootin' squirrels for target practice. (Okay I can sterotype, too.) The rhetoric is always ramped up during a presidential election cycle. Case and point this ad I've posted below. "Get 'em while they're ignorant and keep em that way!" Short sighted and silly. I hope the democrats call out the NRA on this terrible use of advertising. You can't shout your way and make things okay, but the NRA often tries to do this. Take a look for yourself. It would've been a funny clip until the kid with the t-shirt enters and we learn the true meaning of this political ad and that it's from the NRA directly. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gJAZyQHh9JU
