Given a choice between the NRA and the Islamic State, Michael Moore would apparently go with the group known for cutting off the heads of Westerners.
On Friday, the documentary filmmaker labeled the National Rifle Association a “terrorist organization” and called on the media to compare it with ISIS.
The NRA is a terrorist organization. The media should speak of the NRA in the same way they do ISIS. Total ISIS-inspired deaths in US = 79. Thanks to the NRA & the politicians they buy, we’ve had 1.2 MILLION American gun deaths since John Lennon was shot dead in NYC #NRAKillsKids
“The NRA is a terrorist organization,” Moore wrote. “The media should speak of the NRA in the same way they do ISIS. Total ISIS-inspired deaths in US = 79. Thanks to the NRA & the politicians they buy, we’ve had 1.2 MILLION American gun deaths since John Lennon was shot dead in NYC #NRAKillsKids.”
Moore’s comment was made following the tragic shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla., which left 17 dead.
The NRA has faced backlash from gun control proponents in the wake of the shooting, with several companies cutting their ties to the Second Amendment advocacy group.
Customer feedback has caused us to review our relationship with the NRA. As a result, First National Bank of Omaha will not renew its contract with the National Rifle Association to issue the NRA Visa Card.
Additionally, the public learned that four deputies with the Broward County Sheriff’s Office hid outside behind police cars while students and teachers were being killed inside the school.
Moore’s comments provoked backlash.
You going to lay off/fire your bodyguards/security detail? Talk to me when you don't rely on guns for your own safety. Hypocrite
