GreyGeek:
The Left is trying to create distrust of the NRA among gun owners.  I had read that article on the NBC website and wondered what the NRA was trying to do.

 I received this email this morning, and many of you may have as well.


--- Quote ---Statement from Chris W. Cox, NRA-ILA Executive Director,
regarding inaccurate NBC story alleging that
NRA won't oppose background check bill 
 
An article appearing today on NBCNews.com is falsely reporting that NRA will not oppose legislation being negotiated in the U.S. Senate that would mandate background checks for all gun purchasers.

The story posted on NBCNews.com alleges that NRA will not oppose expanding the background check system to include all private firearm sales, "provided the legislation does not require private gun sellers to maintain records of the checks". This statement is completely untrue. The NRA opposes criminalizing private firearms transfers between law-abiding individuals, and therefore opposes an expansion of the background check system.

The NRA supports meaningful efforts to address the problems of violent crime and mass violence in America, through swift and certain prosecution of violent criminals; securing our schools; and fixing our broken mental health system.
