The National Rifle Association is the self-annointed, tax-exempting keeper of the automatically weaponized 2nd amendment flame in the United States.
And in September of 2019 a Senate probe also deemed it a Russian foreign asset. Tim Mak had that story for NPR:
The National Rifle Association acted as a "foreign asset" for Russia in the period leading up to the 2016 election, according to a new investigation unveiled Friday by Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore.
Drawing on contemporaneous emails and private interviews, an 18-month probe by the Senate Finance Committee's Democratic staff found that the NRA underwrote political access for Russian nationals Maria Butina and Alexander Torshin more than previously known — even though the two had declared their ties to the Kremlin...
And now, nine months later, the fine folks from the NRA just keep on keepin' America safe for mass murderers:
Sheesh.

Ever since the armed correction personnel, et al, showed up to settle down the American riot crowd, after the killing of Georg Floyd, I've wondered if the common 'bond' of those individuals, without authority, without credentials, were the National Rifle Association members.
Acting under the authority of President Trump and Attorney General Barr's Republicans, of course.

If it weren't so serious, it would be funny. Had a seen that 20 years ago, I would have thought it a joke. Now, its serious and we haven't seen anything yet in the U.S.A. Just hope the Canadian military has enough staff to keep Americans from flooding the border once things really go south. We don't need their AKs here.
