Despite gun control advocates’ beef with the NRA, you’d like to think that even they could put aside their ideological differences and acknowledge that vandalizing a billboard to read “Kill the NRA” is going too far. But oddly enough, for a guy who claims to be against violence, Independent Reporter journalist and proud Resistance member Ed Krassenstein can’t seem to muster any outrage on behalf of the NRA’s members whose only crime is believing in their right to self-defense:

What?
Imagine being this incapable of saying "yeah, that went too far." https://t.co/8qXIvengxV

Seriously. WTF.

I'm old enough to remember when "the clenched fist of truth" was seen as violent rhetoric by many of the same people excusing away "Kill the NRA". https://t.co/vCGnfdk5Mq

So are we. But actual, honest-to-goodness violent rhetoric just isn’t a big deal as long as it’s directed at conservatives and the NRA.

The NRA is 3 million+ members.
You are talking about people. https://t.co/KHYfrKkbT8

Justifying the killing of political opponents? Gee, what could possibly go wrong?
