The National Rifle Association isn’t coming to Dallas this weekend. It’s been here a long time.
For years, in a glass-walled, high-rise office just across from Klyde Warren Park, the NRA has conducted what might be its most important experiment yet in churning members’ emotions, crafting talking points and pushing an agenda of near-absolute opposition to gun restrictions — NRA TV.
Twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, NRA TV is the nonstop answer to any and all threats to gun rights. The message is loud and constant: Nothing less than American freedom is at stake if the Second Amendment is challenged and firearms are regulated. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
