In May, gun industry lobbyist Lawrence Keane gave the FOP's charitable arm $100,000 from the National Shooting Sports Foundation, the industry group representing gun manufacturers. Keane said the gift was unrelated to the FOP's positions on issues. [More]I should hope it was unrelated. In spite of the occasional concession, the frickin' FOP has been a leading voice for citizen disarmament since the old HCI days, and makes it clear their priorities are ones of your rights be damned when they conflict with their self-interest.
And how interesting to see their former BATFUer lobbyist Pasco is BFF with Waco Jim.
How typical that the Judenrat contingent thinks if it plays nice the monster won't turn on it. And how timely that I saw this talking point advocated the other day by an apologist for a more pragmatic approach:
If we lose cops, we lose.
Yeah, right. Pray that approach will work. I mean, as long as "we" are already on our knees...
