When Two Fools Collide

If you thought the NRA hater who calls himself “Mike The Gun Guy” couldn’t stoop much lower than his normal name-calling and hateful rhetoric against law-abiding gun owners, you’d be wrong.

Mike, who has his own hateful blog aimed at deriding NRA members and gun owners in general, recently wrote in lavish praise of University of Nebraska English professor Amada Gailey. “Great work Amanda, great work,” Mike gushes. What was Gailey’s incredible contribution? A lapel button stating, “#*$& The NRA.”

Mike is wrong for cheering about such obscene insults that in no way help curtail violent crime. Of course, that’s not all he was wrong about in his recent hate-filled screed. “… the NRA has been making this big play recently about getting women into the shooting sports, but the truth is that women … just aren’t all that interested in getting into guns.” Hey Mike, tell that to America’s fastest-growing demographic of new shooters and gun owners—women!
