Depends on what your definition of average is

So Chuck the Schmuck has claimed that the NRA is a "Fringe Group" and doesn't represent the average American Gun Owner. 

So in looking up the word "average" I found the following;

Adjective

Constituting the result obtained by adding together several quantities and then dividing this total by the number of quantities.

I guess if you only represent the James Yeagers, Alex Jones' and their nut huggers, then yeah, 'average' isn't.

But when the NRA adds 250,000 new members, really how many of those folks are what Chuck the Schmuck considers average?  

Hell & No

Environmental wackos these days, watcha gonna do with them?  It seems that six groups feel the need to pester peaceably armed citizens about the lead they fill their hands with, when it comes time to harvest Bambi. 

Tam, back in 2010 had something to say about this previously.

* There is anecdotal evidence that the banning of traditional ammunition would have an adverse impact on government bureaucrat populations.

It would also have an adverse impact on environmentalist and junk scientist populations.

Whatcha doin? Imma fixin to call me out some cracka gun shop owners.

So Jesse Jackson is gonna march on gun shops?  Part of an industry that had a 30.6 percent job growth between 2008 and 2011, he's going to attack a growing part of our economy where jobs to be created.  How fun is it going to be watching this foul piece of humanity leave loafer prints on his genitalia. 

Hikin' yer jimmies up

Whereas it's perfectly legitimate for Fido to have his manhood swingin' in the breeze, hang a set of plastic testicles from your truck and that is somehow offensive.

Bollocks I say

Slipping further into irrelevancy

This is the latest press releases I can find from the CSGV. You would think that for a group that touts the decline in gun ownership, the CSGV would be on the attack in the press and crowing about the gun's imminent demise.  You don't suppose Ladd Everitt decided to find a bottle of sleeping pills and a fifth of whiskey do you?   Nah, I doubt he's that despondent.......yet.
