Jaya GoswamiBecause going after Al Qaeda promotes NRA's interests, so does giving guns to everybody. This is corporate greed at its best. Hide
Saurabh JSiddharth corrected... NRA. Jaya are military weapons suppliers also part of NRA? But obviously, I guess. I never thought of this angle. Yes, either way they win!
Sid Mallickah the NRA.... well the constitution wasn't written with al qaeda in mind... the patriot act was written to fight it...but however....if these numb skulls hadn't gone after the twin towers they could have been operated as a well regulated militia...
