They are off base as often as they are correct and the comments sections make me cringe at times. That being said I think this guy nailed the Castille situation and the NRA's reactions to it.

I can understand that reasoning, but I'm not sure how much I buy it. The bread and butter of the NRA is the gun industry. Their money funds them, and they lobby on their behalf over that of their individual members. I don't know the motives of the NRA in this situation, but I don't know how correct that particular reasoning is, either.
