    @ Marshall, who said anything about prohibited weapons? There were some ill informed stories reported on some liberal outlets. During my 2 days there, many open carry and who knows how many concealed carry. It was a great showing by the members of the NRA. I suggest you continue to support your NRA, because it is the big dog in the fight for our Rights (plural). Yes, they are protecting our Second Amendment Right, and by doing so, ensures we get to keep our other Rights.

    I'm disgusted with and ashamed of the NRA after they prohibited personal firearms in the annual meeting. They pretend to be the 2nd Amendment defenders but when the rubber hits the road they are hypocrites and supporters of the anti gun crowd. If I were not already a lifetime member I would not renew my membership. PDN and all other pro gun rights groups should distance themselves from the NRA
