The GOP are a bunch of rinos who support the second amendment but.

They instantly support gun control the moment a group they don't like gets interested in guns.

When have they supported gun control? I keep hearing them say things like "gays with guns don't get bashed" and "firepower is empowering".

After the mass shooting by a "trans" shooter, they all started coming out of the woodwork to make transphobic anti gun talking points.

The only one I know is the mulford act signed in by then gov Reagan

The NRA overthrew their leadership that supported the Mulford Act and pivoted the organization into a pro-gun political machine.

They used to be bipartisan, even playing a large part in Bernie Sanders's first state-wide win. Then they started taking Russian money and supported the Republican party unconditionally.

Just wait, when gays start forming armed militias like the proud boys, they'll change up their rhetoric real quick.

They should call themselves Pride Boys.

The proud boys aren’t a gay militia?
