Chicago Pays NRA $1.4 Million!

[Oh Shoot]

This is so great, I can't tell you how great I think it is, it's so great. :)

 

Lots of blurbs on the web here and there, but nowhere better than this in American Rifleman, so I just scanned the thing.

 

And the priceless part is that Rahm "DeadFish" Emanuel had to sign some of the checks personally!!

That's great, now they need to use it to fight the assholes in Washington.

[Randall53]

I bet Emanuel had to go outside and puke after signing that check!!!!! LOL

This makes me all warm and fuzzy inside.

And I guess to twist the knife a little more, NRA made them Publisher's Clearinghouse size for all to see.

It is great, it'll go along way to support the fight.

Looooooooove it!

Outstanding, I wonder why this is not the lead story on the national news this evening?

[Guest sL1k]

that made me happy happy happy

[TNcitizen22]

That gave me a tingly feeling.

The coffers can use that extra bit of coin right now - thanks Chicago!

This is fantastic. I wish I could "like" your post more than once.

Well, from reading other blurbs, the money has been sort of coming in at different times, and maybe more than just those three check representations, and something about Chicago coughing up part of Oak Park's share, etc. Think they finally got it all total just recently enough to get in this issue of the mag. Or something like that.

 

And btw, for those who don't get American Rifleman, the cover is rather dramatic, and SIEGE is certainly appropriate, cause this is gonna be a long term thing:

I'm betting they frame those and mount them in a main hallway at the NRA HQ.  :up:

Man, this is awesome. Now the taxpayers of Chicago will be footing the bill for the NRA's legal fees, including McDonald, the guy who started this whole thing. Oh yea, that's great.  :down:

You have to have a BIG check for all those zeros. :)
