Did NRA spokes-psycho Dana Loesch just threaten to kill supporters of better gun control? Cause it certainly sounds that way.

Seriously, WTF was that?

She calls out journalists, celebrities, and late night talk show hosts, and then name checks half of the MSNBC lineup before stating that their "time is running out?"

How is that NOT considered a direct threat on their lives?

You may notice that the NRA Twitter account included the hashtag Oscars90.

Which caused one Twitter user to point out that Loesch is a failed wannabe actress.
Perhaps Loesch is not a crazed aamosexual calling for the murder of her critics, and instead is simply a failed actress, calling for the murder of her critics.

    She is one nasty broad and acts like a bitch. Movie actress wanna be? Is it any wonder she didn't succeed at that?

    Has she thought of how many guns would be pointing back at her should she aim one of them at someone else?

    She should resign from heading that group. She isn't doing them any favors, but I think they'll figure that out eventually. If not, she should be fired!

    5. No one is advocating taking away the right to firearms or the right to own them.

      Just limiting the KIND, how many, accessories and clearly communicating the standards that must be met by responsible gun owners.

      No, you may not own an assault weapon, bump stock, high capacity magazine, armor piercing bullets and silencer along with military grade bullet proof vest.

      I could personally care less about assault 'looking' weapons... but it is hilarious that these types of 'looking' weapons is what get all you dumb ass liberals all wound up. You do realize that mass shootings, and shootings with this types of weapons is around 1% of gun deaths don't you? It is only when a white kid freaks out and shoots other white people that you liberals get your panties in a wad. So stupid.

    Florida teens eviscerate NRA’s pathetic Oscars campaign

    The NRA's attempt at intimidation during the Oscars ceremony didn't work at all on these young activists.

    'raise your hand if you’re not scared of Dana and her hourglass'

    'This elite interest group (@NRA ) threatens our very survival, and to you we say: we don’t trust you, we don’t fear you, and we don’t need you. Take your hands of our future.'

    'we threaten YOUR survival? it was YOU who had a hand in the murders of 17 of my classmates and teachers. it’s safe to say we don’t fear or need you at all either.'

    Perhaps the most fitting response to the NRA’s hateful campaign came from senior Jose Iglesias.

    “No, your time is running out.”

      Convicted School Shooter Praises Florida’s Gun Control Advocates From Prison

      “I want to prevent others from experiencing this pain,” wrote Jon Romano.

      A man convicted of carrying out a school shooting in 2004 has penned a letter from behind bars that praises the gun control advocates of Parkland, Florida, and lauds the man who disarmed him as “a hero who I owe my life to.”

      Jon Romano, who fired a pump-action shotgun inside his New York high school’s halls 14 years ago last month, wounding a teacher, expressed remorse and hope of change in a letter published by the Albany Times Union on Friday.

      The letter came just days after John Sawchuk, then an assistant principal at Columbia High School in the Albany suburb of East Greenbush, recalled to the Union how he tackled and disarmed Romano before anyone could be killed.

      Sawchuk shared his belief that if Romano, then age 16, had been armed with an AR-15 or a semi-automatic weapon, “a lot of people would have been dead.”

    Ex-attorney general apologizes for taking NRA ‘blood money’ in emotional rebuke

    ...“I was in the pocket of the National Rifle Association,” Dann admits.

    “In making a deal with the devil to advance my political career, I had abandoned my principles and sold my soul,” he admits.

    Dann said as an officeholder he felt he had no choice when it came to supporting radical gun legislation and accepting the NRA’s “blood money.”

    “While I didn’t enter politics to be an advocate for the NRA, I quickly learned that unless I became one, I wouldn’t be around to advocate for the issues I did care about,” he writes. “So I made a devil’s bargain with myself: To stay in office, I adopted pro-gun positions that made me uncomfortable.”

    THIS! "This would be relatively innocuous if the fantasy remained on-screen, rather than as part of a political debate about life-and-death matters. But our fantasist-in-chief, Donald Trump, on Monday ripped into the Florida deputies who held back from storming Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School by actually claiming: "I really believe I'd run in there even if I didn't have a weapon."
    Take it from there, Kevin Drum of Mother Jones: "Sure he would. This is the same guy who avoided going to Vietnam with 'bone spurs.'" Let's not forget that the trained sheriff's deputy on site at Stoneman Douglas failed to confront the shooter."
    "Thinking that "providing teachers, principals, custodians or other school staff with eight, 16 or even 60 hours of firearms training on firing, handling and holstering a gun somehow makes a non-law enforcement officer suddenly qualified to provide public safety services is an insult to our highly trained police professionals and a high risk to the safety of students, teachers and other school staff," he observes. "The issue really is the mind-set that goes with law enforcement. And law enforcement officers with hundreds of hours of training get scrutinized for their encounters on the streets.""

    "Rep. Claudia Tenney (R-NY) attempted to clarify her claim that “so many of these people that commit the mass murders end up being Democrats” on an Albany talk radio show after the Parkland mass shooting — only to get frustrated and end the interview.

    “Did you listen to what I said?” Tenney asked her interviewer. “They’re not false statements.”

    “You don’t wanna hear a truthful answer, you don’t wanna know that this problem occurs across all sectors with all kinds of people,” she claimed. “It isn’t just Republicans who commit all these terrible crimes.”

    Rep. Tenney, who just announced her re-election bid yesterday, went on to deride the “relentless” and “vicious” attacks against gun owners as the impetus for her statistically false comment."
    "“It is fake news! I answered your question every which way, it is fake news,” she concluded. “Bye. Done. It’s ridiculous.”
