well,

my mother just CHASTISED me because I told her I applied for an NRA membership and I'm getting a free duffle bag in the mail for signing up..

she berates me,

tells me don't dare let anyone see that bag, or our neighbors. I don't want them thinking we support the NRA.

I almost lost it,

I asked her how many babies were killed by PLANNED PARENTHOOD.

her rebuttal,

A woman has a right to decide what goes on in her body.

so I replied, well isn't it OUR right under the American Constitution, to bear arms? YES IT IS.

so I get, well what about assault rifles…

so I say, we entrust our 18 year old kids overseas to fight for our country and risk their lives, yet we won't allow them to protect their own families when they come back home? Let's just have the government take away all our assault rifles, so THEY will be the only ones with them?

I couldn't think of a better assault rifle argument..

I said, give me one FACT why you think the NRA is evil..

she says, they just are..

I insisted to her that they were the ones who introduced the background check clause..

none of this is THEIR fault..

she couldn't produce one FACT about the NRA being evil..and just walked away..

and she left a parting shot on the way out the door

"stop watching fox news, all they do is lie, and lie and lie…"

Then walked out the door before I could go on a rampage over CNN…

guys, I'm really frustrated right now..

my own mother, berated me for signing up for the NRA..because of what other people might think of her…and what our neighbors might think of us..

WE NEVER TALK TO OUR NEIGHBORS
