Missed It By . . . THAT MUCH!

I'm pretty sure the "Freedom States Alliance" (Motto: "War is peace, freedom is slavery, antonyms are synonyms!") is still doing it wrong. They sent out an email today trumpeting that one of their board members has just been exposed as an "NRA double agent."

From the tone of the piece, I think they have the idea that they're shaming the NRA, which will now hang its collective head. Well, I have to admit it's too bad she got caught, but personally, I feel more gleeful than anything else. As My Lovely Bride put it, "What do they think we are, gay in the '50's? Are we supposed to be hiding or something?"

The FSA says in their official statement:
What the gun lobby clearly does not understand is that trying to save lives from gun violence is not a game. Real lives and real suffering are at stake.
That's right, FSA. It's not a game. It's very serious business, which is why you're not getting any sympathy by whining about the rules. Go suck on a gobstopper and let the big kids sort this out.

I'm betting the NRA folks are giggling like schoolgirls over how much the anti's look like chumps right about now.

Anyone who thinks the anti's aren't doing the exact same thing is naïve.

I'm a little curious what kind of "secrets" the spy is supposed to be stealing? The only thing I've seen that the Brady Bunch is good at is shoveling BS, and it's no secret where that comes from.

Yes! Every organization trying to reduce violence from illegally-owned guns should be subverted by paid agents of a lobby.

Anon, I fail to see how FSA rallying against selfprotection laws equals "...trying to reduce violence from illegally-owned guns...".

Since we are on the subject, can you point to anything they have done that has ever reduced violence from illegally-owned guns? Here's a hint, making it difficult or impossible for law abiding citizens to own firearms doesn't count.

You have a point. Volunteers would, of course, be ideal. But who's got the time?
