Says who, Jumbles?  You?

How are your South African White Supremacist turdsucking 
buddies, Jumbles?  I keep expecting to contract some horrible 
disease besides race hatred.  Keep us posted.

If NRA propaganda simply resulted in several million 
Americans of all ages being persuaded to decimate flocks, 
herds, communities, bedchambers,  and barrooms in order to 
provide the arms and ammo industry's executives with the 
kind of cigars and richly paneled boardrooms to which they 
have become accustomed, one could wave that aside as being 
of no more perverse an influence than, say, the auto 
industry has had on the same suckers.

But the fact is that the impact of NRA propaganda is much 
more insidious; it is much more difficult for a people to 
fight off or shrug off, because it stems from obsolete 
truths—truths that  are still  respected  as  a part  of 
history  but that,  if literally  and contemporaneously 
applied, as it is quite tempting to do in our lazy or 
sentimental moments, can do real mischief to our logic and 
our language. The most dangerous example  of this would be 
the NRA's standard line on the need for, and its role in 
providing, the "citizen soldier." It was the line to which 
the NRA clung so desperately to keep from sinking  during 
its early, perilous existence.
