I just found this in my email an it took a moment to fathom just how stupidly these people act. I have supported locking up firearms not on your person, if you have small children in your AO. I have given away countless locks to anyone who needs one and I like the idea of NSSF kicking in a bunch of FRNs to support it.
This I do not understand. Do they actually wish to shut down a program that will assist in saving curious children from injury? What is wrong with these people??(rhetorical)

Dear NOT TRUE,
I was shocked to learn yesterday that the Department of Justice has awarded the gun lobby group NSSF (National Shooting Sports Foundation) more than $2 million in grant money for its "Project ChildSafe" program.
NSSF is headquartered in Newtown, Connecticut the site of one of the worst mass shooting tragedies in our nation's history. After 20 children and six adults were gunned down in their community, NSSF responded by accusing the surviving parents who called for stronger gun laws of "seeking to destroy the Second Amendment."
There has been no bigger opponent of sensible gun reform than the National Shooting Sports Foundation. They have relentlessly lobbied against every single piece of legislation that would prevent children from obtaining unauthorized access to firearms, including Child Access Prevention laws and criminal penalties for adults whose weapons are obtained by minors.
And they are no friend of the Obama administration, having accused the White House of being “willing to try virtually anything to pursue its gun control agenda in defiance of Congress and existing law.2.............yada................yada...........................yada............................Thank you for standing with us to prevent gun violence.
