Now Can We Finally Agree That The Current NRA Is A Terrorist Organization?

After NRA CEO Wayne LaPierre's demented breakdown yesterday, are we finally ready to admit that the NRA as it is currently constituted is a terrorist organization?  The question is not new, but in the aftermath of Newtown, it is as important as ever, and key in getting some actual change in gun control and gun violence in the America.  In the United States, the NRA is an industry lobby for the gun manufacturing industry; the focus is not gun safety or representing the individual citizen.  The work of the NRA makes Americans more likely to die from violence; until the focus becomes safety, the NRA will continue to terrorize the United States. The NRA is an front for the killing industry, not hunting, not defense, not constitutional rights.  If the debate on gun control is to move forward, the truth about the NRA should be a primary topic.  Wayne LaPierre and his cadre must be removed from power at the very least if we are to have any hope of progress.
