NRA to Lobby for Predator Drones and Hellfire Missiles for its Members
An insider in the office of NRA (National Rifle Association) Vice President, Wayne LaPierre, speaking On Condition of Anonymity, has disclosed that the NRA will soon mount a campaign to acquire Predator Drones for NRA members.
"The Second Amendment protects citizens' right to bear arms," LaPierre is reported to have said. "It doesn't limit the caliber of the weapon, its clip size, or the ammunition it holds." The NRA will assert that the Second Amendment covers Hellfire missiles as well as assault rifles, fully automatic weapons, and 50 cal. flesh-tearing bullets.
Citing the "Open Carry" laws of several states, the insider stated, again On Condition of Anonymity, that the NRA's advertising campaign will focus on the slogan: Open Carry Means Open Skies.
The insider, speaking On Condition of Anonymity because he/she was not authorized to discuss campaigns that have not yet been launched, reported the NRA believes too many U.S. assets are located off-shore in places like Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, and Libya. "Who will guard our southern border?" LaPierre is reported to have asked in NRA executive sessions.
Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, Glenn Beck, and Michele Bachmann have all indicated a willingness to promote the NRA effort, according to the anonymous insider. Again speaking On Condition of Anonymity due to the extremely sensitive nature of the information, the insider stated that the NRA campaign to acquire Predator drones and Hellfire missiles is being bankrolled by the Koch brothers who are heavily invested in the pilotless aircraft industry.
"The Koch brothers are determined to stop unionized teachers, firefighters, and police officers from mounting an armed insurrection as they see happening in Libya," said the anonymous insider. "If citizens in Libya can kill each other, the Kochs and the NRA see no reason why American citizens should be denied that right."
