Break out the pussy hats.
Via Townhall:
The Women’s March is putting the National Rifle Association in its sights. On the event’s Facebook page, they have a planned march set for July 14 in which they say the following:
Recent actions of the NRA demonstrate not only a disregard for the lives of black and brown people in America, but appear to be a direct endorsement of violence against women, our families and our communities for exercising our constitutional right to protest
[…]
Please join the Women’s March and our partners in exercising our First Amendment rights by holding a mass mobilization for our safety, calling on the NRA to take the following actions:
1. Take down the recent irresponsible and dangerous advertisement videos from all social platforms immediately.
2. Issue an apology to the American people for the video that suggests armed violence against communities of color, progressives and anyone who does not agree with this Administration’s policies.
3. Make a statement to defend Philando Castile’s Second Amendment right to own a firearm and demand the Department of Justice indict the police officer who killed him for exercising his Second Amendment right and his privilege as a licensed concealed carry permit holder. This call is clearly in line with the mission and purpose of the NRA as an organization that purports to be the lobby and defender of the right to bear arms.
The second demand is nonsense. NRA spokeswoman Dana Loesch was denouncing politically motivated violence by anyone, which isn’t a controversial issue. Yet, the Left saw this as a defense of white supremacy, an urging for civil war, and maybe a call to shoot liberals—all of which is unadulterated crap. Yet, the third demand is, well, not absurd. In fact, it’s a valid point.
