    Saw tons of comments the last couple days about “Where’s the NRA to defend trans gun owners huh??!?”

    Well here’s your answer - they said 2nd Amendment rights are for everyone and due process matters. Sometimes being cynical is just hurting your perspective.

        I’m OK with the NRA not being hypocritical this time. Doesn’t mean anyone should expect anything from them.

          Yeah, I fully expect this to be lip service. They’ve been married to the Republican Party for too long, they have too much money they’re going to lose access to if they actually defend a trans gun owner who loses their guns or is denied a gun purchase.

          If I’m wrong I’ll be pleasantly surprised, but there’s a reason Pink Pistols is its own thing and not just a club run by the NRA.
