Why would they revoke his NRA license. He still has freedom of press.

The era of both sides of the gun control debate saying extreme exaggerations to manipulate people is coming to an end. Both sides have been demonizing each other for 50 years and no one really believes them anymore.
I'm an NRA who is one year away from voting rights and I'll be voting for directors who express reasonable rhetoric.

Now it seems they want to pressure sell as many guns as they can setting aside safety and responsibility.
