        That is called blackmail and it's illegal. He is threatening to withdraw donations unless republicans pass the legislation he want? That's laughable, @fbi should investigate this donor for extortion.

        Actually it’s not blackmail. It’s a conscientious decision to withdraw financial aide.....kinda like a sanction....

        He said he would withdraw donations, per the article, if they did not vote for a ban on assault weapons, that is specific extortion. HRC did pay to play, that is what he is doing and it is extortion. I'm writing my senators, who probably get tired of hearing from me but that's OK

        NRA support the Second Amendment, which is the only thing that saves the US from fascism.

        They protect corporate gun manufacturers’ profits. They used to be an organization that represented hunters and sportsmen. Look at their funding. Their biggest contributors are corporate gun manufacturers, not dues paying NRA members.

        Always has astounded me that they can be pro-life and anti-children/anti-women’s rights all in the same breath. The Texas legislature leads the world in this incredible hypocrisy.

        You could easily argue being pro-choice and anti death penalty is as big of a hypocrisy

        until Citizen's United decision gets overturned and real campaign finance reform happens, we have to play the game as it is, sadly.

        Every wealthy donor w/an ounce of heart and a modicum of courage should follow in the footsteps of Al Hoffman Jr.

        Unfortunately the more resources that go to the top 1%, the less each individual vote counts because they have most of the money to buy elections.
