NRA doing the right thing
They don't always do the right thing, but with two recent Supreme Court victories (Heller and McDonald), the NRA is now challenging the BATFE's decision that persons 18-20 years of age can not purchase handguns.
Several years ago, the NRA decided not to join the Heller case - they cited fears that the court would uphold the Washington DC gun ban, and they might be seen as filing frivolous or ill-advised lawsuits.
However, after the Heller decision, the NRA grew a pair, and joined in on the McDonald case - which eventually struck down the Chicago gun ban.
Now, they are on the attack - and I do not blame them.
Sure, we gun owners have bigger fish to fry. However, the unreasonable gun restrictions that are currently in place were put together piece by piece, and must be destroyed likewise.
