This file, GETOUTGB.ZIP, is getting more attention now, than it did when it was uploaded to the original Paul Revere Network BBS back in 1989 !!: NATIONAL RIFLE ASSOCIATION MEMBERS THROUGHOUT NATION SEEK TO THROW BUSH OUT OF NRA FOR VIOLATING CONSTITUTION WITH ASSAULT RIFLE BAN By Julie Tenison Guest Writer for "The Correspondent" When George Herbert Walker Bush campaigned for the presidency, he called himself a conservative and used his membership in the National Rifle Association to gain the confidence, and the votes, of gun owners throughout America. He convinced over 50 million gun-owners that under his administration the right to keep and bear arms would be guaranteed. They fell for the lie. Three days after the celebration of our 213th anniversary of independence Mr.Bush outlawed the importation of foreign made semi-automatic assault rifles. This action represents a complete reversal, a 180 degree turn, from his campaign promise to all Americans that he would not support any ban on guns, period. This about face has Alaska members and supporters of the N.R.A. up in arms. At the First Freedom for Firearms Forum held Sunday July 9th in Anchorage, an overwhelming majority of those who attended were outraged over Bush's betrayal and called for his expulsion from the powerful political lobby. He betrayed not only the three million N.R.A. members, but also his sworn oath to uphold the U.S. Constitution___which specifically states, "the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." Of those attending the forum, only three persons dissented from the popular opinion. Surprisingly, this tiny minority included key members of the hierarchy of the N.R.A.: Wayne Anthony Ross, second vice president of the N.R.A. and Rupe Andrews, Alaska field representative. Outraged individuals have begun to publicly oppose the actions of Bush as well as the miniscule effort of the N.R.A. leadership. One petition calling for the removal of Mr. Bush organized by the NO COMPROMISE MAJORITY, the brainchild of Mark Chryson, has already accumulated over 400 signatures in Alaska and has been sent to over 25 other states,(and growing) and to the District of Columbia. This petition, A demand for the Removal of George Herbert Walker Bush from membership in the National Rifle Association, reads in part: "Whereas the NRA requires a definite and concrete commitment to upholding the Second Amendment to the Constitution of the U.S (in addendum to just paying dues) to become a member of that august body, and "Whereas it is not now nor ever been the intention of the vast majority of its members to allow any individual to use the NRA as a stepping stone for political or personal gain upon the back of and at the expense of the membership, and "Whereas certain individuals have in fact joined the organization for the express purposes of using the NRA for political power and has advertised their association in the NRA to gain votes from both the organizations three million members and the millions of its supporters, and Whereas it has now become blatantly evident that George Herbert Walker Bush has in fact used the NRA in his bid to obtain the presidency and has allied himself with those who seek to abolish our right to keep and bear arms-which is in direct opposition to his pledge to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States. "Therefore, be it clearly understood that we the undersigned members and supporters of the National Rifle Association demand his immediate removal from NRA membership forthwith." One NRA member pointed out only convicted felons can be kicked out and Bush is certainly not in that category. Convicted or not, President Bush continues to give American tax-dollars to our sworn enemies, communist countries whose rulers are committed to the total destruction of America. According to the Constitution, his actions are considered treason, and treason is most certainly a felonious crime, as well as sufficient cause for removal from the Presidency. Why should he not be removed from the NRA an organization whose existence is protected by the same Constitution? This ban has come as a direct result of media hysteria over the death of five children on the playground of a Stockton California elementary school. However, since this murderer has previously been arrested on multiple occasions for various serious offenses, has been released into society each time, has been declared mentally ill by the State of California, and was allowed to purchase a handgun in that state just prior to his violent act(after a 15 day waiting period). One is lead to believe something rotten is going on. In light of the rapidly growing trend toward both internal and external disarmament by the President, an alternative explanation, is quickly gaining credibility. Certain elitist, power hungry groups, in their never ceasing attempts to bring about one world government on the ashes of American sovereignty, have long believed their evil task can be easily accomplished only after the American people lose their inalienable right to keep and bear arms. Two powerful organizations that publicly boast of their intentions to disarm America and bring about a global government are the Trilateral Commission and the Council on Foreign Relations. Both groups share another thing; George Herbert Walker Bush's name has graced their membership rolls. David Rockefeller, a committed globalist and close personal friend of Bush, is the primary force behind both of these conspiratorial dens of iniquity. There is much that all Americans who truly care for their cherished freedoms should know about this traitor, our President. the rank and file members of the NRA are starting to learn first hand the tyranny this evildoers has in mind and will accomplish if not stopped dead in his tracks. In light of the changing faces of President Bush, NRA members are mad as hell and aren't going to take it anymore.
