Harry Reid has a "B" rating by NRA.

Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper, left, serving as moderator in a debate on gun violence hosted by CELL, the Counterterrorism Education Learning Lab, listens as University of Colorado law professor and panelist David Kopel speaks against gun control legislation in Denver, Tuesday Feb. 19, 2013.
...“This didn’t come from the White House,” Hickenlooper said. (click here)
Hickenlooper's signature came the day after the head of Colorado’s Department of Corrections, Tom Clements, was shot and killed in his home, apparently after he answered a ring at his front door, authorities said....
I don't see Senator Feinstein changing the wording of her bill because of lack of interest by other Senators.

Reid scores B by NRA on pro-gun rights policies (click here)
While widely recognized today as a major political force and as America's foremost defender of Second Amendment rights, the National Rifle Association (NRA) has, since its inception, been the premier firearms education organization in the world. But our successes would not be possible without the tireless efforts and countless hours of service our nearly three million members have given to champion Second Amendment rights and support NRA programs.

What the Grades Mean

A+: A legislator with not only an excellent voting record on all critical NRA issues, but who has also made a vigorous effort to promote and defend the Second Amendment.

A: Solidly pro-gun candidate including voting record.

AQ: A pro-gun candidate whose rating is based solely on the NRA-PVF Candidate Questionnaire and who does not have a voting record.

B: A generally pro-gun candidate; may have opposed some pro-gun reform in the past.

If the death in Colorado of a government official is at all linked to anyone involved with the gun lobby or an activist at all that is treason. Death of a government official with intent to effect the vote of a legislative body or the signature of a Governor is treason .

Now.

It is time to stop the hideous leveraging of the NRA.
