The Wisconsin branch of the National Rifle Association sure did make a mess of things this past weekend. Not only was their lobbyist caught on tape bragging about how he controls the legislature, but the NRA was handing out copies of The Reality News, an extremist right-wing publication. But not only is it an extremist right-wing publication, it’s an extremist right-wing publication calling for armed revolt to topple the government.
Within the publication was a piece by Karl Koenigs titled, “What Would Davy Crockett Say?” In the article, he makes a call for armed revolt, to topple the democratically elected government of the United States, following with the imposition of a dictatorship, where he, and those who believe as he does, are the dictators.
Mr. Koenigs is no constitutional scholar. I highly suspect his research came from the echo chamber of noted stochastic terrorist media outlet, Fox News. And this is the material which the National Rifle Association elected to have passed out at its state meeting in Wisconsin the past weekend.
Ultimately, this is not about Mr. Koenigs’ faulty viewpoint of what the United States Constitution does or does not say. It is about a lobbying group, which claims to have 4 million members, handing out material calling for direct civil war, to overthrow the government by means of force, at a state meeting in Wisconsin.
The National Rifle Association has not yet replied to Addicting Info‘s request of statement on the handing out of the anti-government material.
There are whackjobs in every group and every branch of every group will do dumb garbage from time to time. I dont think we need to topple the govt but I do believe in the 2nd amendment.
