Huffington Post Huffs and Puffs Again About NRA

In a recent piece for the liberal Huffington Post, Dennis A. Henigan (a noted anti-gun zealot) calls out the NRA, claiming there is no “cultural issue,” and notes:

“The core of the gun lobby’s strategy is to use fear tactics to keep gun owners in a constant state of agitation so that they can be activated to oppose even modest gun law reforms.”

Does he not understand the NRA, or the purpose of a lobby group? It seems so, and as a lobbyist himself, Henigan’s article would be laughable, were it not just a piece meant to put the NRA in a negative light. The NRA can never let down its guard on the issue of gun laws, because if it does so, the very freedoms it stands to protect could be taken away.

The media notes, and Henigan’s own group The Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence often reports that Obama and the Democrats in Congress haven’t attempted new legislation on firearm ownership. But this doesn’t mean that it couldn’t happen. And Henigan clearly has an agenda, which is to let the NRA and others drop their guard, so that very legislation could be brought up.
