Related: About this forumYet More Evidence the National Rifle Association is an Abomination
Im starting a new open-ended series today. I played around with several different wordings for the title, e.g.: The Black Soul of the NRA, Evil=NRA! and How Does the NRA Live With Itself? But I finally settled on Yet More Evidence the National Rifle Association is an Abomination.
Some of you might wonder how this series is different from the one I started months ago, More Stupid Things That Gun Nuts Do. Its pretty simple. More Stupid Things is intended to catalogue the general idiocy of those big-mouthed, little people whose lives revolve around that one thing, firearms, and the absurd arguments they make to justify their deviancy and make themselves sound like substantial human beings. Yet More Evidence will explore the soulless, arms-cartel machine that puts the words into those idiots mouths and fills their heads with the obsessive delusions that make them so deficient as human beings.
See the difference?
The specific item that brought about this series may be old news to you, but its new to me as of Saturday. I stumbled across an Internet story about how a useless turd named Tony Makris, an NRA spokesman and host of a hunting show (Under Wild Skies on NBC Sports), was filmed shooting an elephant in the face from 20 feet away. It took him three shots to kill the creature, and before it finally went down, the great white hunter joked that the beast was getting a bit cheeky therepresumably because it had the audacity to not fall dead after the first shot.

Wonder if the person that assembled this even knows where you normally shoot an elephant?

...how a useless turd named Tony Makris, an NRA spokesman and host of a hunting show (Under Wild Skies on NBC Sports), was filmed shooting an elephant in the face from 20 feet away.
... Yet evidently, the NRA continues to regard every living thingincluding elephantsas just another excuse to go buy a gun and kill whatever its legal to kill. They sponsor that sports program, they pay that useless turd to host it, and they allowed it to be aired. Of course, this isnt the only evil the NRA promotesperhaps not even the worst, compared to the slaughter of Americans that goes on every day with NRA complicitybut you would think there would come a point when that utter lack of decency, that utter lack of morality, that utter lack of spirituality, would be so glaringly evident that even the gun nuts who support them would get it.
Or am I expecting too much of indecent, immoral and spiritually-empty idiots?
That tailing is the abomination.
