I'm a mean rotten person

I just got a push poll telephone call similar to the one described here from some poor minimum-wage-earning schmoo working for the NRA. I was asked if I'd listen to a message from Wayne LaPierre, the outfit's Executive VP, and then respond to a one-question survey. I said "Sure," and then was subjected to a one-minute taped message telling me the UN was trying to force the United States and the rest of the world to ban all guns.

Then the poor telemarketer asked me the question: ""Do you think 3rd world dictators, along with Hillary Clinton, should dictate our gun rights here in America?"

As I said, I'm not a nice person. I responded, "I think Wayne LaPierre and the NRA should have been drowned at birth."

It was mean but satisfying.

You're nicer than I am. I refuse to listen to pre-recorded messages from ANYBODY. Especially the NRA.
