Grant Stinchfield, a host for the National Rifle Association’s online TV network, would be happy if North Korea dropped a bomb on the capital of California.

Media Matters notes that Stinchfield wrote on Twitter that the United States government should “send a note” to North Korea telling them that “Sacramento changed its name to Guam.” Stinchfield references Guam in his tweet because North Korea has threatened to launch missiles at the U.S. territory in the event of an American attack on its military.

Let's send a note to North Korea that Sacramento changed its name to Guam!

— Grant Stinchfield (@stinchfield1776) August 11, 2017

Stinchfield later deleted the tweet and then apologized.

“It was meant as a joke and I regret it,” he told the New York Daily News. “What’s going on with North Korea is no laughing matter.”

Not surprised, the Alt-Right is slowly turning away from "Americans are Americans" to "Only we are Americans, everyone else can die".

The NRA increasingly resembles the Freikorps or other far right nationalist paramilitary groups of 1920's Germany.

This is like when a someone makes a ridiculously racist joke and then instantly realizes that it's not funny at all.

Sarah Palin already did this in her infamous "We're Arizonans" speech.

This? From that guy? Doesn't sound right.

a lot of my threads involve me fucking up somehow. Perhaps I'm a moron?
Twitter is fucking incredible at tricking idiots into outing themselves.

Gun sales will go up, and kill millions of liberals! Sounds like an NRA nut to me.

I own a gun and I also say fuck the NRA.

I love how all the jokes are about a mass group of people getting killed.

I'm so tired of the it's just a joke defense.

Because its not, it's not funny, except for people who want it no true.

I would also like to remind these fucktard right wing assholes that California goes, so goes the nation.

The economy would collapse overnight and would not be recovered in my life time.

California pays out more in social service funds then it takes in effectively paying for all those poor ads sourhern states

So fuck right off

Well they see Trump do it with little to no consequence, and try and replicate it. Doesn't work for anyone who's not Donald though.

But they're just like Donald, see? It's not like there's about 3 billion reasons why Trump can get away with it and nobodies like this guy or those bigoted Trump voters who end up getting kicked out of planes or fired from their jobs can't. 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

The NRA is in a weird place right now. Stuff like this, and their recent "we're coming to get you" video aimed at intimidating the New York Times.

Read the title as NBA and thought somebody really doesn't want the Warriors to repeat or something. I think it is time to visit an eye specialist.

The right has for a long time been party first. More recent developments are, alarmingly, "party only." My own grandfather, who pre-2016 I'd always been close with, has made some pretty hurtful personal attacks against me because I lean pretty far left.

Insane times we live in. Don't see things healing, either.

They're awful and give the majority of gun owners a bad name

http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tan...s-have-a-unique-set-of-views-and-experiences/

A majority of gun owners (61%) are Republicans or lean to the Republican Party, but NRA members skew even more heavily to the political right than other gun owners. Roughly three-quarters (77%) of gun owners who say they belong to the NRA are Republicans or lean Republican, while only 20% are Democrats or lean Democratic. Among gun owners who do not belong to the NRA, by contrast, 58% are Republicans and 39% are Democrats. And among Republican gun owners, NRA members are much more likely than nonmembers to describe their political views as very conservative (29% vs. 18%).

Gun owners who say they belong to the NRA tend to own more guns, on average, than gun owners who don’t belong to the NRA: About half (52%) say they own five or more guns, compared with 24% of non-NRA members (38% of nonmembers say they own only one gun). NRA members also hunt and shoot with more frequency than gun owners who aren’t NRA members: 50% say they go hunting often or sometimes, compared with 30% of nonmembers; 66% of NRA members go shooting often or sometimes, versus 49% of nonmembers.

NRA members are also significantly more likely than other gun owners to say they have a gun that is loaded and easily accessible to them at all times (53% vs. 34%). And, among handgun owners, NRA members are twice as likely to say they carry a gun with them outside of their home all or most of the time (44% vs. 22%). They are also more likely to say they have taken a gun safety course at some point – 84% of NRA members have done this, compared with 67% of gun owners who don’t belong to the NRA.
