ACORN: Using Federal Dollars to Fund Gun Control?

As more and more information becomes available about the shady operations of the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now or ACORN, it should come as no surprise that people are taking a harder look at past allegations of misconduct by the group. One such issue that is gaining attention is ACORN’s obvious disdain for the second amendment of the U.S. Constitution. In 2008, ACORN quietly backed anti-gun types in New Jersey in an unsuccessful attempt to to further regulate the purchase of handguns by limiting purchases to one per month. How did the organization fund that failed effort? With millions of dollars in government funding, it’s a good bet that some of that anti-gun campaign is funded by tax-payer dollars. That’s a no-no. This is the same ACORN that was slated to received over seven billion dollars in stimulus money courtesy of the Obama administration. The arrogance, bias and incontrovertible unlawful activities this group is involved in make ACORN an organization that simply can’t be trusted. From offering to help prostitutes conceal illegal brothels of minor sex-slaves illegally smuggled into the United States, to surreptitiously trying to poison the legislative process in New Jersey, this “organization” simply reeks of institutional corruption, they clearly have a political agenda that many would argue is divisive to America.
