That's right, no case has even been filed, much less reached the Supreme Court, so there was absolutely no basis for your comment.

No damage has been done re: NRA membership material -- the subject matter of this thread.

The United States Supreme Court.

Chas.

The Supreme Court sure has done an outstanding job of keeping the .gov from illegally tracking people's phone records and web activity, haven't they?
Please cite the case that has gone to the Supreme Court.

With all the fear mongering by Republicans, right wing media and the National Rifle Association (NRA) on reasons why our nation should not have a national background check system for gun buyers, even with 90 percent of the nation in favor of it, the NRA said no, and every Republican in the Senate and even a few Democrats voted in favor of the NRA and against the demands of our nations citizens.
... is nothing more than a pack of lies.
Exactly! The article is one lie after another. I wish we had a database of all gun owners so we could make direct contact with somewhere around 125 - 150 million Americans (not just the 80 million who will still tell a stranger they own a gun). The NRA has its own membership list (5 million +, not 3 million as the liar stated). We probably do buy mailing/emailing lists from people, but that's hardly a database as implied. We have no information on what guns people own.

Using the Examiner as a data source is like asking a liberal Democrat what he/she thinks about something. I would say lying liberal Democrat, but that would be redundant.
