Chuck Schumer Says the NRA Is an Extreme ‘Fringe Group’

Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) sat down with HuffPost Live Friday, where he made a noteworthy statement about the rapidly-growing National Rifle Association.
 
Responding to interviewer Alicia Menendez’s question about whether Schumer’s colleagues are “willing to admit” that the NRA is a “fringe group,” the senator responded: “Well they sure are a fringe group, but whether enough of my colleagues are ready to admit that, I’m not sure.”
 
He continued: “They are a very extreme group.  They don’t even represent average gun holders.”
"Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it, misdiagnosing it and then misapplying the wrong remedies." (Groucho Marx)

 An organization nearly 150 years old with 4.8 million members doesn't represent average gun owners ?
It takes a democrat to follow that twisted logic .

Great nations rise and fall. The people go from bondage to spiritual truth, to great courage, from courage to liberty, from liberty to abundance, from abundance to selfishness, from selfishness to complacency, from complacency to apathy, from apathy to dependence, from dependence back again to bondage. Where are we now??????

Considering the source, that is a compliment.

I'm used to being a part of an out of touch fringe member.  After all, I've spent my life as a white, heterosexual, Christian, male.  According to the world I'm so out of touch I need to be put in a cage and packed away.
If I appear taller than other men it is because I am standing on the shoulders of others.

Funny.

My Sunday School teacher mentioned, yesterday, something along these lines, but not Shumer's thoughts directly. He said basically that if you are a conservative thinker, pro-life supporter, hunter, outdoorsman, gun owner, and such that you are seen as a militant extremist.
"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

"When it comes to the enemy, just because they ain't pullin' a trigger, doesn't mean they ain't totin' ammo for those that are."~PegLeg

Have your musket clean as a whistle, hatchet scoured, 60 rounds powder and ball and be ready to march at a minute's warning.

The fact is I consider myself a moderate .
I don't give a crap about abortion, I don't give a crap if or what any one worships .
I simply demand that the Constitution be adhered to as written, they used little words so normal people wouldn't need it translated for them .
If that requires a civil war so be it .
