OKAY, WE'VE FINALLY FOUND AN OUTER BOUND OF THE NRA

A few days ago, I heard one of our local wingnut radio hosts criticizing the jerks who went to Sonic's & Chili's armed for battle.  I was a little puzzled because gun nuts often do stuff like that & generally wingnuts slobber all over them and now I learn that there's probably a serious blow back about these clowns because even the NRA thinks they went too far:
NRA slams ‘downright scary’ Open Carry Texas gun lovers: They ‘crossed the line’

THE RAW STORY

The NRA applauded Texas for a “robust gun culture,” but noted that a number of activists had “crossed the line from enthusiasm to downright foolishness.”

“[I]t is a rare sight to see someone sidle up next to you in line for lunch with a 7.62 rifle slung across his chest, much less a whole gaggle of folks descending on the same public venue with similar arms,” the NRA continued. “Let’s not mince words, not only is it rare, it’s downright weird and certainly not a practical way to go normally about your business while being prepared to defend yourself. To those who are not acquainted with the dubious practice of using public displays of firearms as a means to draw attention to oneself or one’s cause, it can be downright scary.”
