My cousin's wife told the nephews and nieces she would donate in their name to a "charity of choice".  One boy picked the NRA."That's not a charity!""They push guns, we can't donate to them!"They convinced the boy to pick a different organization.NRA, directly and through their charity called NRA Foundation, educates people about gun use and gun safety.  Of course NRA is a good choice for a donation.  But not in liberal land.Charity of your choice - liberal to English translation "liberal charity of my choice". 4951

Liberal tolerance is not a two way street. It's all tolerance fun and games as long as you are playing THEIR games by THEIR rules. It doesn't work the other way around. Hillary and her cronies proved that recently. 4951

NRA Foundation, a non charity."Since our establishment in 1990, we’ve exceeded more than $300 million
in funding through more than 38,000 grants in support of the shooting
sports. These grants provide essential funding that benefits
programs such as youth education, law enforcement training, hunter
education, conservation, firearms and marksmanship training and safety,
and much more." 4951

I would have asked if donating to the MOMs group is worthy enough even though they have a history of lying and deception. 4951

@fcabanski:  Was this their Christmas gift to the nephews?  The NRA is a great charity.  Your cousin's wife is a piece of work.  Seems to me she made the nephews feel bad about their choice and pushed her liberal ways.  I think one of you should have a talk with her if you do not want her influencing your kids.  She is very intolerant.

I would have just asked for the money and donated it to the NRA in her name. 4951

Why not counter by making the donation yourself in the kid's name? 4951

Right or wrong I would guess most people see it as a lobbying group rather than a charity.
 
If that was their Christmas gift to them they should make the call. If it is just something she wants to do then I can see her wanting to direct it.
 
Either way, hardly worth quibbling over. 4951

It was her Christams gift to her nephew,  He is my cousin's son.It's not worth quibbling over, except it was worth quibbling over when it came to where to send the money.  That's how liberals win - when it's not worth quibbling over, just give liberals their way.I made a donation as a gift. 4951

It may well be that this person did not know/recognize that the NRA has a charitable part of their organization, as most people hear about has to do with the Lobby portion. Folks who are ignorant of such things are not likely to look kindly on those who call them out on it in front of a group. It would be really nice if many conservatives wouldn't tar all liberals with the same brush. Happy Boxing Day! 4951

@deltadawn:
 
Did you mean "not know/recognize" ?
 
And not tarring the opposite way would be nice also. 4951
