The folks at ThinkProgress interviewed many NRA members at the weekends big convention Uptown. The progressive website reports that among the dozens of NRA members they spoke to, many offered reasonable positions on issues that havent been widely publicized such as closing the terror gap gun loophole and whether gun owners should be to allowed bring weapons into bars and consume alcohol. But, the story continues, the vast majority of NRA members ThinkProgress spoke with echoed the misinformed and extreme anti-Obama rhetoric espoused by right-wing heroes such as Sarah Palin, Newt Gingrich, Sean Hannity, Glenn Beck and other Fox News hosts.
Watch below for a compilation video of interviewed NRA members.

See, this just goes to show you that these teabagging fools are as crazy as a Sh**house rat!
Psychotic, believe anything Fox tells them, drones. Just like most brain dead republicans, just feed them and rile them up with lies!
Now that Glen Beck claims to be getting messages from God directly, there’s no telling what they hell they are going to do next. Sounds like Jonestown may return thanks to these bastards.
May the real God help us all.
Wow. This video is disturbing. Has anyone out there seemed to notice that everyone at that horrid event is WHITE?!!!!
Oh yes. That’s one thing you can always count on with the republican tea baggers and Fox. Hateful white Ballantine-ish men and women who couldn’t back up a fact if their damn life depended on it.
The video is a great example of how easy it is to mislead ignorant people.
Every one of those people said even though no one has actually tried or even talked about taking away our guns, I just know that they are going to. How paranoid is that?
Fox News and the rest of the right wing echo chamber are going to lead the ignorant lemmings in this country into another civil war.
As always, Frank Griffin speaks as a great representitive for his pathetic, racist right wing.
You are a fool and ingnorant as always, since we were talking about the NRA event and mostly all paranoid republican teabaggers are white. If you look at the video footage from the entire event, they were all white.
As for what you are going to burn in Hell for, well I’m sure they’ll come up with enough once you get there Frank.
Well wait no longer. All the republicans will split hell wide open for lying and inciting the ingnorant to think such crap like in this video.
Notice how you always take everything off topic, and I do address the damn points. The focus is that every single tea bagger and lying republican soccer mom is white. What does that mean? They are all mad as hell that a black man is President. That means they are racist as living hell.
I guess you just don’t like the truth. What else is new.
I bet you didn’t know that I would slap your lying face silly if you stood before me. How’s that, you lying racist?
Rosa,
I see a pattern developing.
Making threats of violence, and using epithets against persons who have a different view than you.
Who is the real racist here ?
“White” people with “guns”…..?
I live in a all black neighborhood 20 blocks from uptown. (by choice) The bullets fly regularly.
I am a “white” guy. I own guns…for my protection and for target shooting.
You…..like to call people names over the internet.
I’m more concerned over folks like you.
I share the belief with others that liberals are dragging the country down and are anti – American judging by their politics and actions.
Enjoy your freedom of speech while while it still there.
Have a nice one !
I sure will. And for your right wing, sorry information, there is no pattern. Frank Griffin has threatened me and talked down to me about my children and financial situation in the past on several occasions. I have told him more than once that if he ever stoof in front of me, I would slap his sorry face. That is not violence. Violence could be deemed as your illegal wars that your heros Bush and Cheney waged and what you and your Fox News psychos are trying to incite in white soccer moms across the country.
There’s your pattern! And may God have mercy on your lying souls.
Oh, and Frank, there is no debate, you helpless lost soul. There never IS a debate with you. We are very clear about how things are and how warped the rest of you are. That’s about it.
For the record, ‘Mr. Griffin’, I made the comment about all whites being at the NRA event, just like they are at all the republican events and rallies, and I am WHITE. I find this to be very revealing and has nothing to do with who is purchasing guns or using them. I was referring to the biased, partisan, political side of all of this, which seems to be all there is left.
I will say you are a disgrace of a man to go after a woman and her children. I re-read that post and it was disgusting. It seems as though you are the one that is always here trying to rile everyone up and promote propaganda. You should be ashamed.
I’ll save you the effort. It’s all right here. Frank just won’t shut up.

Thank you Mark.
Remember, there is no debate. Only the truth and the facts. These develish lies won’t permeate the truth. Continue the trashing and inciting all you want.

“I dont care what comment you made before James. It was Rosa that started in with the hateful white people crap.”
Sorry, but you do care about the comment I made before. I started with the ‘white people crap’ and I am white. I know that scares the hell out of you. What would all the white teabagging republicans think if there were all blacks at the NRA convention and teabag parties? You’d probably be ready to call the National Guard.
Over and out.
Ok, how’s this. I am saying they are HATEFUL WHITE PEOPLE at the NRA event and teabag parties. Period.
Still going on and on and one with no audience. What sad, simple SOB.
I checked out the link out of curiosity and saw that Frank does make fun of the kids’ situation. I also saw the comment from somebody else that puts it best:
Its no surprise that Griffin cant understand why its wrong to make fun of someone elses financial situation. As others have pointed out, he seems to be a true narcissist, and one of their traits is being unable to have empathy with anyone else. What a sad, sorry excuse for a real person just a pitiful motherfucker, really.
